The Fanciest Hotels in Las Vegas
So you want to plan a trip to Las Vegas. Great decision! Now, the question is what are the nicest and fanciest places in town?
The biggest question is where to stay. A good place to start is the AAA Five Diamond Award winning hotels. On the strip, there is the Wynn, Bellagio, Venetian, MGM Skylofts, and the Four Seasons.
When it comes to gambling and if you like to gamble high stakes, all of these properties can accommodate the limits you like to play (except the Four Seasons, as it doesn’t offer gaming). However, most of the highest rollers tend to hang out in the Wynn, Bellagio, and Venetian.
The Bellagio is the hotel that is most remembered for the fountain show outside. This place really is classy, and very elaborate. There are plenty of fine dining options as well as other great amenities here. While visiting, you really need to check out the Botanical Gardens. The Botanical Gardens is an elaborate garden display that changes seasonally. It is really a unique sight.
If you’re looking for a little Italian flair, you’ll find it at the Venetian. As an Italian themed hotel, you’ll find gondolas with actual singing gondoliers that guests can ride. The Venetian puts an emphasis on Italian themed art and decor, as the ceilings are painted like the Sistine Chapel. The wall decorations and tile work really make the place one of the most visually appealing places Las Vegas has to offer.
At the top of the MGM Grand, you will find the MGM Skylofts. The Skylofts are great rooms with lots of amenities and luxuries that you won’t find in a normal room at the MGM Grand. As far as the MGM Grand itself, it’s a very large establishment with a huge variety of dining, gaming, and entertainment. It isn’t as flashy as the Wynn, Venetian, or Bellagio, but it is still a very nice place.
One of the most famous casino resort/real-estate developers in the world is Steve Wynn. His previous projects include the Mirage, Treasure Island, and the Bellagio before they were sold. Since then, he has outdone himself yet again with the Wynn and most recently its sister hotel Encore.
The Wynn, which Steve claims as, “The only hotel I’ve ever signed my name to” really has has a lot to offer its guests. In the Wynn, you’ll find fine dining, the Esplanade Shoppes which feature some of the most famous brands in retail, to a golf course, and even a Ferrari/Maserati dealership! Around every turn you will find visually stimulating displays. The Wynn really puts emphasis on luxury and great service, and is a great place to stay in Las Vegas.
All of these places are wonderful and absolutely stunning. Keep in mind if you’re looking for dollar drafts or five dollar blackjack, it will be difficult to find in these properties. Be prepared to splurge a little, but if you really want to experience Las Vegas luxury, these places are second to none.
