At Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino, excess is the norm. Las Vegas visitors can listen to some of music’s greatest artists, spot some of the world’s most dangerous predators and bodysurf some of the city’s largest waves without ever leaving the 120-acre property.
The resort is practically dripping in nightlife, dining, entertainment, recreation and relaxation. The accommodations are modern and up to date, offering wireless internet, iHome clock radios and large plasma-screen TVs in every room. Delano Las Vegas, the adjacent all-suite hotel, complements the already impressive property, offering a boutique experience for guests looking for a more cosmopolitan atmosphere.
Hip and high-end, Mandalay Bay is a bustling paradise, accented by fountains, sculptures, marble and flora. Surrounding it is dining at its finest, from the proletariat Red Square and the elegant Aureole by Charlie Palmer to Michael Mina’s stylish Stripsteak. Lupo by Wolfgang Puck is an Italian restaurant featuring a few twists on some old classics. Rick Moonen’s RM seafood provides patrons with everything from gourmet- and café-style seafood eateries to a sushi/raw bar. His steampunk-inspired venture, RX Boiler Room, showcases classic comfort food in small and large plate portions on the restaurant’s second floor. Other fine dining options are Fleur by Hubert Keller and the creative Japanese cuisine of Akira Black at Kumi Japanese Restaurant and Bar.
Mandalay Bay’s casual foodie offerings also keep in mind the relaxed tropical atmosphere. From the authentic Irish pub fare at Rí Rá, the 24-hour bistro menu at Citizens Kitchen and Bar and the Mexican favorites at the Border Grill and Hussong’s Cantina to the decadent hamburgers at Burger Bar, the By the Slice counter at Slice of Vegas and the Cantonese dishes in The Noodle Shop, there is something to suit virtually every palate.
Entertainment also abounds at the resort. “Michael Jackson ONE,” created by the estate of Michael Jackson and Cirque du Soleil, fuses together the music of Jackson and his hope for unity and a better world through a plot that follows four misfits on a state-of-the-art visual and audio adventure.
At night, eyecandy sound lounge offers an interactive experience with a high-tech touch, while the Foundation Room boasts unparalleled views of the Strip from high above Mandalay Bay and Delano Las Vegas, respectfully. Light is a wonderful nightlife venue that was “turned on by Cirque du Soleil.” Plus, you’ll never forget a visit to Minus5 Ice Bar or 1923 Bourbon & Burlesque.
Whether you’re a fan of rock, reggae, rap, rockabilly, jazz or blues, the House of Blues has it all. The venue not only books musical legends, but also puts on a soulful Sunday Gospel Brunch, featuring great live music and a traditional Southern food buffet. The Mandalay Bay Events Center meanwhile, provides a venue for sporting events and arena-sized musical acts.
It’s not all about the nightlife though — Mandalay Bay has plenty of things to do in the bright light of day. Get up close with some toothy friends at the Shark Reef Aquarium, featuring more than 2,000 animals. If you’d rather do the swimming yourself, take a dip in the one of the resort’s four pools at Mandalay Bay Beach, which also features a lazy river, a wave pool, the three-tiered Beachside Casino, bungalows, annual summer concerts and Moorea Beach Club (an adults-only pool experience).
You’ll think back on this Vegas vacation forever after heading over to Starlight Tattoo, where celebrity tattoo artist Mario Barth may be on hand to ink a permanent reminder on the body part of choice.
And there’s still much, much more to see and do, including gambling on the 135,000-square-foot casino floor, shopping at The Shoppes at Mandalay Place, getting pampered at Spa Mandalay or creating the ultimate Vegas cliché by tying the knot at one of three wedding chapels in the complex.

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!
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.
Dining is inarguably second to none at The Palazzo with restaurants like celebrity chef Wolfgang Puck’s Cut, an AAA Four Diamond Award-winning steakhouse. Carnaval-inspired SushiSamba unites Brazilian flavors, Peruvian tastes and Japanese technique. 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.
Arguably one of the hippest, most rollicking joints in town, the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino houses Vegas’ hottest concert venue and pool complex along with some chic nightspots, restaurants and retail outlets.
It’s all about the music here. From guitar-shaped door handles to a saxophone chandelier, every element of the resort worships at the altar of rock. The coolest collection of music memorabilia is enshrined on its walls and along its hallways. Check out jackets from Aerosmith, the Ramones and U2. There are also motorcycles, drum kits, countless autographed guitars and outrageous costumes worn by Madonna, Christina Aguilera, Elton John, Joan Jett and Billy Idol.
All of this memorabilia just scratches the surface of the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino’s devotion to the spirit of rock ‘n’ roll. The entire resort — from the original structure built in 1995 to the all-suite HRH Tower added on in 2010 — has a hedonistic atmosphere reminiscent of a backstage bacchanal. At night, the casino’s Luxe Bar serve as ground zero for the parade of beautiful people. Vanity nightclub is also here, but is only open to public for special events and parties. It sports decadent décor elements including hand-cut crystals, rubbed brass and black chrome.
The resort’s crowning achievement, however, is The Joint. Steely Dan, the Ramones, Sting, Green Day, Ringo Starr, Duran Duran, Ozzy Osbourne, the Rolling Stones and many more smoked the original venue. A larger, state-of-the-art concert facility by the same name has since opened to carry the torch. It seats 4,000 people and offers a sound, lighting and video system that puts all others to shame. A smaller live music venue called Vinyl has also opened its doors. Emanating a speakeasy atmosphere, it has an industrial look and features a variety of bands.
Outside, the pool area, dubbed “Beachlife” and consisting of three separate pools (Nirvana Pool, Breathe Pool and Paradise Beach) is lush beyond belief with sandy beaches, tropical palms, private cabanas and swim-up blackjack, all accommodating the bronzed bodies who have made it the place to see and be seen. During the summer, the best revelry in the city takes place at Rehab. The Hard Rock Hotel originated this ultimate daytime pool party, where guests enjoy something akin to spring break debauchery.
Dining runs the gamut at the resort — from cosmopolitan to classic yet cutting edge. For instance, Nobu serves up modern Japanese cuisine and Fú has a unique fusion of Asian fare, while 35 Steaks + Martinis offers a cutting-edge take on traditional steakhouse cuisine. Culinary Dropout, a trendy gastropub by Sam Fox, provides another fabulous eating experience. Pink Taco cooks up Mexican favorites with a California flair. Plus, Mr. Lucky’s Café is the ultimate 24-hour coffee shop with a modern attitude. You never know who will walk in after a concert, and the off-the-menu special (the $7.77 plate of steak and shrimp) is sure to satisfy any meat-lover’s appetite.
Body-conscious guests will be pleased to discover a fully equipped fitness center, one that is much larger than you’d usually find at a hotel gym. Relaxation is also on the menu at the Reliquary Spa. With treatments like a Russian deep tissue massage, an Asian healing massage, a Turkish ritual and a Fijian body scrub, you’ll feel as if you’ve traveled all around the world.
Truly a Vegas original, the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino must be seen — and heard — to be believed. For the young, hip and trendy, this is an ideal place to kick off your Vegas party.
For the classic Vegas experience, visit the Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino, where both business and leisure travelers are offered gourmet and casual restaurants, first-rate entertainment and world-class gaming action, as well as easy access to the Strip via the Las Vegas Monorail.
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.

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.
Vegas visitors looking for excitement will find that and more at Harrah’s Las Vegas in the heart of the Las Vegas Strip, where a festive atmosphere, diverse entertainment options and an action-packed casino permeate the property.
The celebration starts outside the casino at Carnaval Court, a rollicking outdoor bar that features live bands and flair bartenders. Souvenir kiosks and food stands complete the street fair ambience.
When entering the casino from Carnaval Court, a jester statue representing magic and jubilance ushers guests inside with the message: “The party has already started.” Nowhere is this more clear than just inside at the Piano Bar, where dueling pianos and karaoke keep the energy high. Harrah’s also boasts Numb Bar & Frozen Cocktails and the Signature Bar with color-changing lights, a crystal chandelier and big-screen TVs as well as 16 beers on tap.
Chandeliers resembling large gold Mardi Gras beads decorate the expansive casino, which is always brimming with action. Gamblers delight in everything from a comfortable poker room to a stylish high-limit gaming area with sliding glass panels, a keno lounge and Rapid Roulette tables. Sports wagering is available in the race and sports book, called the Sports Pit, with high-definition televisions wherever the eye can see.
Also in the casino is Toby Keith’s I Love This Party Pit, where dealers dressed in country-western garb sling cards while country music blares from speakers above. Those really feeling the honky-tonk vibe can head upstairs to Toby Keith’s I Love This Bar & Grill for a stiff drink, a bite and some dancing.
With a number of unique restaurants, guests can enjoy succulent steaks, prime rib, seafood and chicken at Ruth’s Chris Steak. Flavors, The Buffet represents cuisines from around the world.

Hailed as Las Vegas’ “Most Historic Hotel,” the Golden Gate Hotel & Casino in downtown has stood the test of time and then some.
Since opening as the Hotel Nevada in 1906, this corner establishment has stood placidly at One Fremont Street while the city — and the world — changed around it. Most notably, Fremont Street Experience with free light shows and special events was built right outside its doors.
In step with the revitalization spreading throughout downtown Las Vegas, the Golden Gate underwent a major expansion not too long ago. A stunning lobby exhibits items from the hotel’s notable past — things like a Kellogg telephone and ledgers from 1907. There’s a high-limit gaming area in a nook just off the enlarged casino floor, which was also refurbished with new carpeting. The bathrooms have been redone, and silhouettes of either a gangster or flapper make them easy to find.
Also in the casino, guests will encounter the resort’s signature “dancing dealers” from 6 p.m. to 2 a.m. nightly. The Bar Prohibition! in the casino is the place to go for a cocktail. With a classic speakeasy vibe, it boasts having once served Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr. The One Bar with its bikini-clad and flair bartenders is also a great gathering spot located outside on Fremont Street.
Very little has changed to compromise the Golden Gate’s old school charm. The décor elements harken back to the Roaring ’20s or the Rat Pack era, while the latest technology has been utilized to bring the hotel into modern times. The existing 106 rooms have all been updated and now include hip amenities like 32-inch flat-screen televisions, Keurig coffee makers, pillow-top mattresses and iHome clock radios.
The hotel has opened a five-story tower that is home to 16 luxury suites, including two penthouses that cover the fifth floor. It also features a porte cochère for valet parking and the hotel’s exterior has contemporary pinstripe lighting accents.
The Golden Gate offers the best of both worlds. Guests can enjoy the intimate atmosphere of a historic boutique hotel and then step outside the front doors into the heart of the action in downtown Las Vegas.
An off-Strip property, Palace Station serves locals and tourists with great food, comedy acts, affordable rooms and much more.
Originally the “The Casino,” Palace Station paved the way for the rest of the Station Casinos properties. The acclaimed Sunset, Texas, Santa Fe and Boulder Station hotels as well as Green Valley Ranch and Red Rock Casino, Resort & Spa wouldn’t exist if not for the dazzling success of this establishment. And the driving forces behind Palace Station are constantly refining and building on their good fortune for the benefit of their guests.
The accommodations here are spacious and just minutes from the Las Vegas Strip, offering choices that run the gamut from comfort to class. Rooms and suites in the 21-story Luxury Tower boast a sophisticated, modern décor and upgraded amenities, including flat-screen televisions, work areas and top-notch bath products. The courtyard rooms are clean, comfortable and convenient with plenty of amenities.

Palace Station’s casino virtually crackles with charged excitement, with more than 1,600 slot machines, 44 table games,a 307-seat bingo room and an Asian games area featuring pai gow tiles. There is also a high-limit slots area, an expansive race and sports book and a nonsmoking poker room.

There’s something for everyone at the Feast Buffet as well. Guests can also grab a triple grande latte or other drink of choice at the Starbucks off the lobby.

Although Palace Station is located just off the Strip, complimentary shuttles run daily between the hotel and the Fashion Show mall on the Strip. Guests will also enjoy shuttle service to the airport. A concierge desk is available in the lobby to help with show or other travel arrangements.
Palace Station is willing, ready and able to make everyone feel right at home in Las Vegas.

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.
MGM Grand truly lives up to its name, not only in sheer size, but also in its vast offerings. Located at one of the busiest intersections in Las Vegas, it provides a world of entertainment, dining and unwinding — both day and night. Recently, the resort completed a $160 million remodel to upgrade all of its rooms and suites, has added a brand new nightclub and several new restaurants.
Entertainment is plentiful with several options in a variety of unique venues. The Cirque du Soleil show “KÀ” takes audiences on a heroic journey that will feel like the latest blockbuster movie. A lineup of renowned performers come to the David Copperfield Theatre, while some of rock ‘n’ roll’s greatest acts, from the Rolling Stones to U2, take the stage in the Grand Garden Arena — also home to many highly touted championship boxing events. And Brad Garrett’s Comedy Club offers plenty of laughs.
You have multiple dining choices at the MGM Grand that include the exquisite tastes of Joël Robuchon and L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon, the sophisticated tastes of Fiamma Trattoria or the classic pub fare of Michael Mina Pub 1842. Whether it’s steak and lobster at Tom Colicchio’s Craftsteak or the beloved American delights at Avenue Café, you’ll never go hungry here. Plus, you can experience the traditions of different cities in Las Vegas — Hakkasan Las Vegas restaurant offers unique Cantonese-style cuisine with flavors of Hong Kong and Shanghai, try Emeril’s New Orleans Fish House for the tastes of the “Big Easy” or venture over to Wolfgang Puck Bar & Grill for the tastes of Southern California. The Morton Group, led by restaurateurs Michael and Jenna Morton, opened Crush — a celebration of food, drinks and friends — at the resort, and Hecho en Vegas, serves a wonderful mix of traditional Sonoran cuisine and popular Mexican favorites.
Along with fine dining, there are plenty of places for casual eats — from the MGM Grand Buffet to the ample MGM Grand Food Court and Blizz Frozen Yogurt.
The Lobby Bar offers an extensive cocktail list and Centrifuge lures the crowds at nighttime and well into the early morning hours. Tap Sports Bar serves American favorites for lunch and dinner, but guests can also enjoy 48 draft beers, sports memorabilia and watching games on 60-inch HD TVs.

Shopping is plentiful along The District and in The Underground, two neighborhood-like areas at the resort. You’ll discover glittering jewelry and watches, keepsakes, clothes, sweets and more.
There aren’t many hotels with offerings so grand that it’s practically an entire vacation under one roof. With such a wide variety of things to do and see at the MGM Grand, don’t be the least bit surprised if it takes more than one visit to experience it all.
A friendly note: All of the hotel rooms are non-smoking. If you smoke, there will be a $350 cleaning fee at checkout. Stay in designated smoking areas and you’ll be fine.
Self-parking fees are: Free for less than one hour; $7 for 1 to 2 hours, $10 for 2 to 4 hours, $12 for 4 to 24 hours. Valet fees: $15 for 0 to 4 hours; $20 for 4 to 24 hours.

The Fiesta Rancho casino-hotel, comfortably located away from the frantic rush of the Las Vegas Strip and downtown, offers a pleasant, locals-friendly atmosphere along with the same excitement and amenities that distinguish Strip resorts.
Of course, the Fiesta Rancho offers amenities that you won’t find on the Strip, most notably its NHL regulation-sized SoBe Ice Arena, which is available for public skating.
Another standout feature of the Fiesta Rancho is its restaurant selection. The 600-seat Festival Buffet offers 11 food stations and a wide variety of cuisine spanning the globe from China to Italy and back. The food court offers a variety of fast food options.
The Fiesta Rancho holds itself up as the “Official Royal Flush Capital of the World.” So, it makes sense that the resort’s 50,000-square-foot casino is not to be missed. After all, it had to earn that title somehow.
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.

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.

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.

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.
