Take one step onto the fountain-fronted property at Bellagio Las Vegas, and you will instantly find yourself transported to an elegant European resort, replete with lavish rooms, award-winning restaurants and a luxurious spa, all the while surrounded by works from the world’s most renowned artists.
From the natural light bathing the lobby through glass ceilings to the fresh flowers and trees of the Bellagio Conservatory and Gardens, whose displays change five times a year, everything about Bellagio tells you that you’re not in Las Vegas anymore.
Dining devotees will not only be pleased with Bellagio’s first-rate dining options — they will be absolutely dazzled. From the AAA Five-Diamond Award-winning fare of both Le Cirque and Picasso (Bellagio is the only North American resort to house two Five Diamond award-winning restaurants under one roof), the only dining problem you’ll find at Bellagio is how to choose amongst the amazing selection. Celebrated chef Julian Serrano’s restaurant Lago has a dining room with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Fountains of Bellagio and features creative small plates and a sophisticated mixology program. Casual eats are also available at Café Bellagio, Noodles and The Buffet. And guests can enjoy sweet treats at Café Gelato and the Palio Café.
Just as exclusive as the eateries is Bellagio’s shopping at Via Bellagio. The impressive list of fashion world luminaries includes Chanel, Dior, Giorgio Armani, Louis Vuitton and Prada. Fine retailers like Bellissimo and Platino are now open along the resort’s pool promenade as well.
The 65,000-square-foot Spa Bellagio provides dozens of ways to further immerse yourself into the luxury this resort offers. And the ultimate diversion is the elemental spectacle of Cirque du Soleil’s “O,” though other, more grounded entertainment at the hotel’s numerous lounges can also be enjoyed at your leisure. Some even offer incredible views of the spectacular Fountains of Bellagio show, a magnificent ballet of dancing waters choreographed to music and lights, in the manmade lake.
All of this excess is balanced by the more delicate delights at Bellagio: the succulent pastries of Jean Philippe Pâtisserie, the expansive balconies overlooking the resort’s meticulously-landscaped pools and the rare and treasured art featured in the Bellagio Gallery of Fine Art.
Plus, nightlife is a notch above the rest with the elevated service and unique surroundings at The Bank and Hyde Bellagio, an indoor/outdoor venue that overlooks the Fountains of Bellagio. Lily Bar & Lounge is a sleek retreat that boasts lavish décor and signature cocktails as part of a more intimate nighttime experience. Some other great bars to check out include the Petrossian Bar near the lobby and the Sports Bar Lounge by the sprawling race and sports book.
The accommodations at Bellagio have also been completely updated. Three unique designs transport guests to a warm and elegant world replete with modern conveniences. Among the amenities are a custom pillow-top mattress, original artwork by Damon Clarke, a 40-inch Samsung HD television, a media hub, a laptop-sized nightstand safe and a bedside iHome docking station. Keep in mind all rooms, with the exception of the 19th floor, are non-smoking; guests who smoke in rooms will be charged a $300 cleaning fee at checkout.
Don’t take our word for it, however. Discover for yourself the rare experience Bellagio has to offer, and find your own extraordinary piece of Europe in the center of the Las Vegas Strip.

Texas Station boasts the same friendly atmosphere of its sister Vegas establishments (Boulder, Palace, Santa Fe and Sunset Stations — plus, Green Valley Ranch and Red Rock Casino, Resort & Spa), but combines it with the charm, attitude and flavor of the Lone Star State.

Several full-service restaurants — Austins Steakhouse (winner of numerous Las Vegas best steakhouse awards), Texas Star Oyster Bar, the Grand Cafe, a giant buffet and a number of other eateries — provide great dining. Enjoy a drink and piano music at the A-Bar before your dinner or stop by the Martini Bar afterward and have one of their metropolitan cocktails with a Western flavor.
South Padre plays host to live musical acts and has a dance floor. Play billiards in the Splitz Bar. The Dallas Events Center, meanwhile, hosts big-name entertainment.
The entire family will enjoy the 18-screen Regal Cinemas, which offers everything from Hollywood blockbusters to independent films in plush comfort and state-of-the-art dazzle, with stadium seating and THX stereo. And did we mention the 24-hour, 60-lane bowling center that features Cosmic Bowling on Fridays and Saturdays?
There’s a lot to do deep in the heart of Texas. You had better get moseying along, partner, or it’s going to pass you by.

The 2,000 widescreen rooms at the Excalibur boast modern décor, upgraded amenities (including 42-inch flat-screen TVs and alarm clocks with iPod connectivity) and large bathrooms with granite countertops, while the standard rooms continue to offer comfort with touches of the classic castle-theme at an affordable price. Keep in mind there is a $300 smoking fee for guests who smoke in non-smoking rooms.
Rounding out the kingdom is the pool area, which is much more than just a moat. This includes the Drenched pool café, a separate adults-only pool with cabanas, a fire pit and sun decks perfect for the king and queen of the castle. There is also a family pool with a thrilling water slide.
For those looking for easy access to other hotels, an indoor walkway connects the Excalibur to the Luxor.

Offering some of the best dining experiences on Fremont Street Experience, the Fremont Hotel & Casino is one of downtown Vegas’ most beloved hotels.
The property has been one of the crowning gems of Fremont Street since 1956, when it became the first high-rise hotel in the area. Even after the hotel changed hands — Boyd Gaming bought it in 1985 — the devotion to quality and comfort has never lessened.
The 447 spacious, recently renovated guest rooms and suites — with flat-screen TVs, refrigerators and wireless internet access (for a fee) — are comfortably removed from the round-the-clock excitement of the Fremont’s 32,000-square-foot casino. Several stellar restaurants also stand ready to serve, from the splendid Pacific Rim cuisine of the Second Street Grill to the playful tropical setting of the Paradise Buffet & Café. And popular beef rib purveyor Tony Roma’s packs in guests by the truckload. For a quick bite, there’s always the Lanai Express or Dunkin’ Donuts. Plus, cocktails are poured round the clock in the casino bar and sports bar.
There’s more to the Fremont, but you should discover those bonuses through repeat visits. Offering classic Vegas service and quality, the Fremont Hotel & Casino in downtown Las Vegas impresses with wonderful dining, comfortable rooms and exciting gaming action.
The Luxor, located at the south end of the Las Vegas Strip, makes its presence known throughout the valley not only by shining the world’s strongest beam of light into the sky, but also by offering cutting-edge restaurants, renowned entertainment, fascinating attractions and comfortable accommodations. It has shed much of its ancient Egyptian image and moved into this modern era with a more adult-oriented theme as well as ultra chic bars and lounges.
A present-day wonder, this 30-story pyramid contains many amenities. Spacious rooms surround the world’s largest atrium, which boasts shopping, dining and plenty of good entertainment. The casino, at 120,000 square feet, is one of the city’s biggest, offering an array of the latest slot and video poker machines, table games, a race and sports book and the Bruce Buffer Poker Room.
The smaller, more seductive Savile Row is situated next to it. A 2,000-square-foot haven, Savile Row is reminiscent of the street by the same name in London. Flight is the perfect spot for club goers to grab a few drinks before buckling their seatbelts for takeoff. At Liquidity, the casino’s water-themed center bar, guests will appreciate the sleek, high-tech design. Other nightlife options include the hip lobby bar Aurora.
Dining choices range from the around-the-world selections of More the Buffet to the rocking T&T (Tacos & Tequila) that features the innovative cuisine of celebrity chef Richard Sandoval. For a wide selection of breakfast and lunch fare, step into the Pyramid Café and explore its many comfort food options. Tender Steak & Seafood offers the best in surf and turf as well. The stylish American-style pub, Public House, is a popular favorite.
During the summer months, guests can be spotted soaking up the sun at the expansive five-acre pool deck through windows in the walkway that connects the two-story parking garage to the hotel. Located in the pool area, Nurture Spa & Salon lives up to its name, offering a steam bath, whirlpool and sauna, along with an array of facials and body treatments.
On the atrium-level, entertainment abounds. Enjoy the prop comedian Carrot Top and “Fantasy,” a sexy adult show featuring powerhouse vocals from Lorena Peril along with a bevy of gorgeous topless dancers. And the ladies of “Fantasy” aren’t the only bodies drawing crowds at the Luxor. “Bodies…The Exhibition” features 21 whole-body specimens in various poses, preserved using a method known as polymer preservation.
Cirque du Soleil has also brought its own brand of magic to the Luxor in conjunction with “Mindfreak” magician Criss Angel. In “Criss Angel MINDFREAK LIVE!,” you’ll be mesmerized by a surreal world where it’s often difficult to tell what’s real from what’s imaginary.
Indoor walkways make it easy to visit the Luxor’s surrounding hotels, leading south through The Shoppes at Mandalay Place to the Mandalay Bay and north to the Excalibur. A free tram also links the three properties.
Please note all of the hotel rooms are non-smoking. There is a $300 cleaning fee for guests who smoke in any of the rooms.
Self-parking fees are: Free for less than one hour; $5 for 1 to 2 hours, $8 for 2 to 4 hours, $10 for 4 to 24 hours. Valet fees: $10 for 0 to 4 hours; $15 for 4 to 24 hours.

Downtown Grand is located on Third Street between Stewart and Ogden avenues in downtown Las Vegas, just steps from The Mob Museum and two blocks from Fremont Street Experience as well as a short stroll from the hip bar scene in the Fremont East Entertainment District. The hotel is also less than a mile from shopping at the Las Vegas Premium Outlets – North and cultural events at The Smith Center for the Performing Arts.
Downtown Grand is comprised of two towers — the 17-story Casino Tower (east) and the 25-story Grand Tower (west), which are joined by an elevated walkway. Together, they house nearly 630 rooms and suites that range in size from 350 to 1,200 square feet. All of them provide sophisticated and stylish accommodations for downtown visitors.

With first-class accommodations and a slew of acclaimed chefs, The Palazzo is the perfect respite for those seeking a taste of the finer things in life. From a three-story Barneys New York to a beautiful waterfall atrium, the resort is always striving to reach new heights in the hospitality industry.
As the largest LEED-certified building in the world, the resort is also committed to the environment. During the construction of The Palazzo, some 70 percent of waste materials were recycled, diverting nearly 42,000 tons from the landfill. Numerous green initiatives regarding recycling, energy, lighting, water, air quality and cleaning products are also in place here.
Combined with The Venetian and the Sands Expo and Convention Center, The Palazzo is among the largest hotel and convention complexes in the world. The two hotels are connected by The Grand Canal Shoppes at The Venetian | The Palazzo, an 875,000-square-foot multilevel shopping complex with approximately 160 high-end stores — including Barneys — and water features like The Palazzo’s stunning Waterfall Atrium and The Venetian’s indoor canal. Amenities at The Palazzo and The Venetian are interchangeable, and together the properties boast the most James Beard award-winning restaurants under one roof.
A cathedral ceiling majestically tops the casino, while a second 80-foot dome floods the lobby with natural light. With 139 types of games, as well as countless slot and video poker machines, the casino floor itself lacks the stale smell of cigarette smoke typically found in Las Vegas casinos. As a property certified by Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED), smoking is off limits for the majority of The Palazzo — including 50 percent of the casino floor.
The resort’s 3,066 all-suite rooms start at 720 square feet and are decorated with a modern Italian style. They provide all the comforts of home along with the luxuries of a high-class hotel, and include sunken living rooms, remote-controlled draperies, multiple flat-screen TVs and Roman tubs. The Prestige Suites, located on the 23rd floor, offer enhanced VIP treatment with a champagne check-in and access to an exclusive lounge where a complimentary breakfast, hors d’oeuvres and cocktails are served.

Chef Mario Batali’s Carnevino is for connoisseurs of aged beef, and chef Emeril Lagasse’s Table 10, inspired by his flagship New Orleans restaurant, showcases bold Creole cooking. Grimaldi’s, a New York City import, serves up its incomparable thin crust pizza.
Adjacent to SushiSamba is its sister venue, The Lounge at SushiSamba, a vibrant boutique nightclub featuring interactive entertainment. Another hotspot for dining and drinks is the Mediterranean-inspired Lavo.
For a more casual meal, enjoy light fare at Wolfgang Puck’s seasonal restaurant, Solaro, located at the five-acre pool complex on the hotel’s fourth floor. Also on the pool level near the entrance to the Canyon Ranch SpaClub, the Canyon Ranch Grill offers healthy options as well as a menu of organic liquor.
Those seeking sophistication and elegance on their Vegas vacation will find it here. The Palazzo is unparalleled in providing world-class dining, shopping and accommodations right in the heart of the Las Vegas Strip.
Down-home attitude and Wild West charms make Arizona Charlie’s Decatur popular with locals and tourists. Good food, comfortable rooms, popular lounge acts and a poker room make this hotel an all-around winner.
More than just a “neighborhood casino” on Las Vegas’ west side, Arizona Charlie’s Decatur is almost revolutionary in nature. Not only does it boast a huge 24-hour bingo parlor, but it also houses an enclosed non-smoking slot area. Along with a race and sports book and keno lounge, gamblers can try their luck on 12 exciting table games.
Of course, there’s much more to Arizona Charlie’s Decatur than its lively casino.

As friendly and willing to please as the cowpoke it was named for, Arizona Charlie’s Decatur is one of Las Vegas’ safe bets.
With its brilliant pink and orange façade, the Flamingo is as colorful as the history behind it.
It seems appropriate that the Flamingo is a direct descendant of the hotel where modern Las Vegas began. Benjamin “Bugsy” Siegel’s original Flamingo is gone (torn down in 1993), but the hotel that bears the name continues to live up to its name.
The lush gardens behind the room towers seem removed from Las Vegas entirely, with live pink Chilean flamingos, ducks, swans, turtles and koi fish frolicking in ponds and under three-story waterfalls. A number of swimming pools — including the stunning main pool with its seasonal water slide and the party-like Go Pool — make the Flamingo seem less of a casino and more of a full-fledged resort.
But the animals and water attractions aren’t the only entertainment at the Flamingo — plenty of humans worth checking out call the resort their home too. The women of “X Burlesque” offer some adult fun in the late evenings. Jeff Civillico is featured in a wacky comedy/juggling show in the afternoon. There are shows to suit all ages as well, including the song stylings of brother and sister duo Donny and Marie and the celebrity tribute show “Legends in Concert.”
Restaurants at the resort cater to tastes ranging from American and Italian to Japanese cuisines. The Paradise Garden Buffet serves up delicious food in an idyllic setting, looking right out at the picturesque wildlife habitat. Favorites at the Center Cut Steakhouse include the 20-ounce ribeye and 24-ounce porterhouse. And you can always grab a quick bite in the Tropical Breeze Cafe or the food court.
To keep the party going, while your night away at Jimmy Buffet’s Margaritaville, a crazy Caribbean-themed entertainment complex with a menu of island favorites and a cast of strolling entertainers. There’s even a Margaritaville Casino for Parrotheads to enjoy, complete with 22 tables, 220 slot machines and the 5 O’Clock Somewhere Bar. Pick up a cocktail at Bugsy’s Bar or the lobby bar. Other dining choices include Center Cut Steakhouse and the rollicking Mexican restaurant and bar chain Carlos’n Charlie’s.
It goes without saying that the casino is enormous, with more than 1,600 slot machines, countless table games, a poker room and a giant race and sports book to reward the fortunate. Those looking to be pampered or get in a good workout will be impressed with the facilities at The Spa at the Flamingo. Charming weddings can be held in the Garden Chapel.
The north entrance of the Flamingo is also connected to The Linq, an outdoor shopping, dining and entertainment district that’s home to the High Roller observation wheel.
The resort has also transformed its standard rooms into more contemporary accommodations — FAB rooms. Modern décor elements include splashes of signature Flamingo pink and warm, wood-toned furnishings. Guests will enjoy upgraded beds with ultra-soft pillow-top mattresses, plush linens and faux fur throws. FAB rooms even come equipped with 32-inch flat-screen plasma televisions.
There is valet and self-parking. Guests will be charged $8 per day for self-parking and $13 per day for valet parking. Hourly self-parking and valet rates vary.
True to its lineage, the Flamingo is — and always will be — a quintessential Las Vegas experience.
Fremont Street Experience may boast the brightest lights, but the iconic Four Queens Hotel & Casino is a star in its own right.
The venerable resort is located in the heart of downtown, but it has been there since well before the high-tech Viva Vision canopy started dazzling crowds. There’s enough classic Vegas glitz and old-school charm inside the Four Queens to rival the light show’s best displays.
The casino floor at Four Queens is always active and brimming with excitement as well. It boasts more than 1,000 slot machines, 27 gaming tables, a keno parlor and a sports book. Most recently, a bank of the popular Paradise Fishing slots was installed at the east entrance.
Dining at Four Queens is among downtown’s most celebrated. Enjoy the savory gourmet delights of Hugo’s Cellar, where every woman walks away with a fresh rose. For a more casual experience, try a fresh-baked pizza in the Chicago Brew Pub, where you’ll also discover a cigar lounge. And the 24-hour Magnolia’s Veranda serves up quick eats, including an unbeatable prime rib dinner special.
The Canyon Club showroom boasts a variety of live entertainment — everything from dance bands to comedians. Comedy magician Mike Hammer is currently mesmerizing audiences in an early evening show followed by Steve Connolly, who stars in the Elvis tribute show the “Spirit of the King.”
Featuring 690 comfortable and spacious rooms in twin 19-story towers, the Four Queens maximizes your stay with a 24-hour bell staff, laundry service and room service. Among the hotel’s other amenities are a lovely pool, meeting rooms and a gift shop to round out your Vegas experience.
With celebrated dining, convenient services and classic Vegas charm, the Four Queens is one of the brightest stars in downtown Las Vegas.

True to its history as a pioneer in the gaming and hospitality industry, The Mirage’s casino is large, easy to navigate and home to thousands of slot machines, dozens of table games and an enormous race and sports book (with an 85-foot-by-16-foot display screen).

With a long history in the city, the Westgate Las Vegas originally opened as the International Hotel in 1969 and served as the venue where Elvis Presley broke all Vegas show attendance records. Nostalgic photographs of the musical maverick and a bronze statue of him remain on display.
In the Westgate Cabaret you can see “Purple Reign: THE Prince Tribute” and the topless revue “Sexxy” starring Jennifer Romas.
After an evening of entertainment, unwind inside the hip Tempo lounge, the Plaza Bar or The International Bar near the lobby.
Boasting several restaurants, the Westgate Las Vegas truly has something to suit every taste. An enchanting Zen-inspired Asian garden, where a tranquil rain splashes down into a koi-filled pond, sits outside the entrance to the award-winning Benihana. Nearby, Silk Road Noodle Bar, Rikki Tikki Sushi and Edge Steakhouse offer guests two more great choices in fine dining, while The Buffet provides a more casual option. Sid’s Cafe is a 24-hour eatery in the heart of the casino where you can get appetizers, salads, burgers, sandwiches, main plates and desserts — as well as standouts like The Elvis Sandwich and the Chicken Lollipops. Grab a quick cup of coffee, a glass of wine or a snack at Fortuna, located near the lobby.
In the casino, crystal chandeliers run the length of the ceiling, while natural light from the hotel’s front entrance permeates the floor, which includes an array of games, from baccarat to slot machines. There is a glass-enclosed high-limit table area as well as high-limit slots. The SuperBook, an enormous non-smoking race and sports book spanning more than 30,000 square feet, includes a VIP section for high rollers, the non-smoking Ultimate Fan Cave and a deli. It also features the largest indoor LED video wall in the world, measuring at 240 feet long.
Accommodations at the Westgate Las Vegas are elegantly appointed and feature several modern amenities. The Signature rooms offer pillow-top mattresses, flat-screen televisions and wireless internet access. A simple upgrade to the Concierge Level rooms gives guests access to the exclusive executive experience of the Concierge Lounge, located on the casino floor of the hotel’s East Tower. Concierge Level guests enjoy complimentary breakfast, snacks, cookies and evening cocktails and hors d’oeuvres.
Guests may want to indulge in a relaxing body treatment at the The Spa, play a game of tennis or lay out by the hotel’s third-floor pool with its stunning views of the Strip. There’s also a state-of-the-art cardio room for fitness buffs. Guests may also want to shop in one of the Westgate Las Vegas’ many gift stores, carrying everything from souvenirs to apparel and jewelry.
The business-savvy traveler will be pleased to find that — at nearly 200,000 square feet — meeting space is plentiful at the Westgate Las Vegas. A skywalk actually links the convention space to the neighboring Las Vegas Convention Center.
With its proximity to the Las Vegas Monorail, it’s easy to travel from the Westgate Las Vegas to just about anywhere on the world-famous Strip. But considering the wide variety of entertainment, dining and gaming options offered, you may never want to leave.
Treasure Island on the Las Vegas Strip, known simply as TI, is aptly named because of its many hidden treasures. A paradise for adults, it includes some of the hippest hangouts in town, a tropical pool area with a party tub, a variety of restaurants and the first permanent Cirque du Soleil show in Vegas.
The hotel’s exterior features a sleek marquee with the TI initials. One of Treasure Island’s big features is Gilley’s Saloon, Dance Hall & Bar-B-Q, which has something for everyone. The saloon portion offers bikini bull riding contests, multiple bars, a stage, a dance floor and a “big Texas” attitude. The restaurant, which fronts the Strip, features barbecue-style favorites including ribs, big burgers and pork sliders. There’s also an outdoor patio.
The rowdy Señor Frog’s bar and restaurant, a party staple in Mexico, adds to the nightlife scene now.
Visitors flock to Vegas to relax, play and eat well, and Treasure Island has met the challenge of accommodating even the most sophisticated tourist, most aggressive card shark and most selective diner.
The hotel’s spacious guest rooms feature floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing spectacular views of the Strip. They also boast the exclusive Elite Sensational pillow-top beds, flat-screen LCD TVs, small refrigerators, private safes and large soaking bathtubs.
The sprawling casino includes a small but stylish poker room, a race and sports book, several thousand slot and video poker machines as well as plenty of table games.
Phil’s Italian Steakhouse celebrates the best of Italian and American cuisines. The Vietnamese-themed Pho is a restaurant within a restaurant, located in The Coffee Shop. A world-class selection of dishes is also available for breakfast, lunch, dinner and weekend champagne brunch in The Buffet at TI. And Little Richie’s Chicago-Style Beef and Dogs is a hot dog stand situated near the poker room and sports book.
Included in Treasure Island’s entertainment offerings is the visually stunning “Mystère” by Cirque du Soleil, now nearly through its second decade of highly acclaimed performances.
The hotel recently opened a highly interactive attraction for the masses. With state-of-the-art equipment, Marvel’s Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N lets the whole family become secret agents. Top secret intelligence files, classified studies, and experiments lead you to a one-of-a-kind experience.
The pool features private cabanas and a party tub that fits 25 people. For some pampering, Oleksandra Spa & Salon offers luxurious treatments in a facility designed by a former Miss Universe contestant.
Topping it all off, the resort is conveniently located, offering a tram to the neighboring Mirage and a pedestrian bridge across Spring Mountain to the Fashion Show mall. There’s also a three-story, 48,000-square-foot retail center on the northeast corner of the property opposite the Fashion Show mall that’s anchored by CVS.
With the wealth of riches at Treasure Island, it’s no wonder that once you’ve set sail with this crew, you’ll never want to return to port again.
Encore, another beautiful resort from the Wynn collection, complements Wynn Las Vegas’ repertoire of accommodations, culinary offerings and leisure activities with additional designer boutiques, six bars and lounges, four signature restaurants and an opulent spa and salon. It boasts a younger, more modern vibe than its forerunner.
Encore takes a casually elegant approach to ambiance with sunlit corridors and atriums overflowing with flowers and plants, intimate nooks and theatrical eateries with dramatic flair. There is a signature butterfly motif on the carpeting and in other accents, as that is a symbol of good luck. High-energy music also wafts throughout the corridors. Nearly 130 ruby red glass chandeliers made by hand in Italy adorn the ceiling of the casino floor.
Although Wynn Las Vegas is home to 14 prestigious eateries, Encore has a smaller but similarly accomplished all-star team of chefs. Five signature restaurants pair master chefs and their personally prepared gourmet fare to create culinary experiences that please the most discerning and well-traveled palates. This includes Sinatra, a fine dining Italian restaurant by well-known Los Angeles chef Theo Schoenegger that pays homage to Ol’ Blue Eyes. Named for the mythical crystal dragon that presides over this dramatic Pan-Asian café, Wazuzu showcases Chinese, Japanese, Indian, Singaporean and Thai cuisines.
Dinner at the resort can be preceded or followed by a show. Wynn Theater showcases the eye-popping aqua production “Le Rêve – The Dream.” XS, one of the most expensive clubs ever built (gold glimmers everywhere the eye can see), and Surrender Nightclub are two great nightlife offerings at Encore, where the European-inspired poolside ambiance mingles with a club-like vibe to create an oasis. Encore is also home to Encore Players Bar, a hip new martini bar featuring 150 flavored vodkas, and Andrea’s, a unique dining and nightlife combination. Andrea’s is adjacent to Surrender and showcases an Asian-inspired menu, including dim sum, sushi, noodles and steaks, of Chef Joseph Elevado.
A vibrant atrium, spa, the Claude Baruk Salon and the many designer boutiques in the Esplanade at Encore round out the experience.
The 2,034 spacious suites at Encore start at 700 square feet and feature wall-to-wall windows with spectacular views of the city. Standard amenities include flat-panel TVs in front of both the bed and living areas, along with a 19-inch flat-screen TV in the bathroom. All the linens, robes, slippers and bath products are of the highest caliber. You’ll certainly sleep in the lap of luxury here.
With a coveted location at the heart of Strip — near all the amazing attractions as well as across the street from the Fashion Show mall — a stay at Encore provides the perfect base for your Las Vegas visit as well as an intimate, extravagant escape from the hustle and bustle of your day-to-day life.
Just three miles from McCarran International Airport and less than a mile from the Las Vegas Strip, the Days Inn Las Vegas at Wild Wild West Gambling Hall offers the proximity you desire without the frenetic pace of the Strip.
There are comfortable rooms that come with a hair dryer, iron and ironing board, and free wireless internet access. All of the suites are non-smoking.
The garden setting and two-story buildings surround a lovely heated pool and Jacuzzi area, perfect for a night of relaxation. The hotel offers a well-trained staff available 24 hours to cater to the needs of the guests. There’s also a 24-hour casino. Plus, you can grab a bite to eat any time of day in the on-site restaurant.
The hotel offers free parking, and children 12 years and younger stay for free with an adult.
The Big Easy meets the Entertainment Capital of the World at The Orleans, located just a short drive west of the Las Vegas Strip. From the playful French Quarter-like façade to the alligator-shaped door handles, the soul of New Orleans envelops guests.
Inside, you’ll find bright festive colors, giant Mardi Gras masks hanging from the ceiling and watering holes like the Bourbon Street Cabaret, where you can enjoy a drink and live entertainment.
Of course, Vegas still is very much in evidence with a bustling casino offering slots, video poker and keno machines, a variety of table games, a 19-table nonsmoking poker room that’s open 24 hours a day, and a race and sports book, among its many assets.
The 850-seat Orleans Showroom hosts a mix of big-name bands, singers and comedians. Plus, the state-of-the-art Orleans Arena features concerts, family entertainment and sporting events.
The hotel offers plenty of things to do for the whole family from the 70-lane bowling center to the 18-screen movie theater. Young children will enjoy a session at the professionally supervised Kids Tyme, while teens can play video games at the Time Out Arcade.
A wide choice of dining is available at The Orleans including delectable prime rib at The Prime Rib Loft, sushi and Chinese fare at Ondori Asian Kitchen, and freshly shucked oysters at Big Al’s Oyster Bar. There are also plenty of casual dining options including Alder & Birch, the French Market Buffet, T.G.I. Friday’s, the Courtyard Café, Java Vegas Coffee and a food court housing Fuddruckers, Sbarro, Subway and Baskin-Robbins.
Rooms at The Orleans are comfortable, featuring such amenities as flat-screen TVs, hair dryers, coffee makers and spacious sitting areas. Plus, the hotel offers many amenities to make the stay pleasant for guests including a salon and barber shop, two pools and a large hot tub, a luxurious spa, the Rocky Mountain Chocolate shop and a liquor store. The hotel also has free shuttle service to the Gold Coast (its sister property) and to and from the Las Vegas Strip.
Above all, The Orleans offers the entertainment and distinctive charm of its namesake — a place to trade your blues for rhythm and blues, your scowl for a grin, and a bad day for a great evening. Mardi Gras has begun and will never end here. Don’t be surprised if you end up leaving with multicolored strings of beads around your neck!
A huge bingo room. A bowling alley. Two top-notch Asian restaurants. These amenities and more make the off-Strip Gold Coast beloved by visitors and locals alike.
Located a mile west of Las Vegas Boulevard on Flamingo Road, it’s hard to believe this resort hasn’t been around since the turn of the century, luring the citizens of the West and beyond to its abundant gaming and entertainment by the wagonload. A classic gambling hall charm pervades the Gold Coast, from its frontier-style exterior to its 120,000-square-foot casino. In addition to the 720-seat bingo hall, the hotel boasts a bustling race and sports book as well as more than 2,100 of the most popular slot and video poker machines around.
If gaming’s not your bag, the Gold Coast offers plenty of other diversions, including a 70-lane bowling center and a showroom that features a variety of live entertainment.
Of course, you won’t go hungry in this place. Gold Coast offers a score of diverse dining options. It offers exotic Asian specialties of Ping Pang Pong and the Noodle Exchange. T.G.I. Friday’s even has a location inside the resort, so you can always grab an affordable slab of ribs or tuck into a sizzling chicken and cheese skillet.
Take all of this and add a great swimming pool, meeting rooms, a salon, a barber shop and a convenient location directly across from both the Rio and the Palms hotels, and you’ll realize why the Gold Coast remains such a treasured gem.
Hooters Casino Hotel, just east of the Las Vegas Strip, is home to a namesake Hooters restaurant and, of course, the world-famous Hooters Girls in tiny orange hot pants and white tank tops. But it offers so much more.
Not only is there an array of scantily clad ladies, but Hooters Casino Hotel also has a little something for everyone. The resort’s comfortable rooms are island-casual with tropical prints on the comforters and all the standard amenities. The casino is always packed with action and includes table games like roulette, craps and blackjack as well as plenty of slot and video poker machines, a poker room and a William Hill sports book.
Cocktails are available throughout the resort — in spots like Pete & Shorty’s.
Eating options include Hooters restaurant, featuring the “nearly world-famous” buffalo wings. Mad Onion Fine Food & Spirits is great place to enjoy a fine dinner. The décor is contemporary and the restaurant also boasts an intimate lounge.
Hooters Casino Hotel’s hospitality extends out to the resort’s pool area. Open 24/7, there are two tropical themed pools and a waterfall. Hooters Girls are also there to serve you a cold beverage at the pool bar.
Best of all, no one has to leave empty-handed. While the Hooters Girls have to stay behind, true fans can bring home a piece of the resort from Splurge, a shop that sells all sorts of Hooters Casino Hotel logo merchandise and memorabilia.
