Harrah’s 24-Hour Buffet a Deal for Golfers

If an all-inclusive deal to Las Vegas sounds great to you, then you should definitely budget for Harrah’s 24-Hour Buffet of Buffet’s promotion. We ventured out during the week to give this a test, and found it to be well worth the price.

We started with brunch at “Lago’s” inside Caesar’s Palace. This place is what one would call “Posh” the buffet at Caesars was an excellent start, with many great choices for breakfast or brunch. For dinner we chose the Spice Market Buffet at Planet Hollywood, king crab legs and an excellent Mediterranean section made this  great choice for dinner. We ended our 24 hour buffet-fest with an early brunch at Paris Hotel – here we faced the buffet line of lines – but for a 40 minute wait the fair was well worth it.

The Buffet of Buffet’s is priced at $39.99, but you can save $5.00 when you sign up for the Total Rewards program at any Harrah’s property in Las Vegas, you then have 24 hours to feast at any of the following seven buffets:

  • Flavors at Harrah’s Las Vegas
  • Emperor’s Buffet at Imperial Palace
