Bellagio Las Vegas HotelBellagio Las Vegas Casino and Hotel is an AAA Five-Diamond, Mobil Four-Starred rated luxury hotel and casino located on the
Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada, USA. It is owned by MGM Mirage and was built on the site of demolished Dunes
hotel and casino. Inspired by the Lake Como resort of Bellagio in Italy, Bellagio is famed for its elegance. One of its most notable features is an 8-acre artificial lake between the building and the Strip, which houses the Fountains of
Bellagio, a large dancing water fountain synchronized to music.
Bellagio was conceived by Steve Wynn and built by his company, Mirage Resorts, Inc. following the purchase and demolition of the legendary Dunes
hotel and casino in 1993. Bellagio was designed by Marnell Corrao Associates and Jon Jerde. Bellagio had an original construction cost of US$1.6 billion.
The Bellagio employs approximately 10,000 people. In the fall of 2006, the casino floor was remodeled and new uniforms were issued, changing the original color scheme to a more contemporary blue tone.
Inside Bellagio, Dale Chihuly's Fiori di Como, composed of over 2,000 hand-blown glass flowers, covers 2,000 sq ft (190 m²) of the lobby ceiling.
Bellagio is home to Cirque du Soleil's aquatic production of "O", only the second permanent production show for the world-renowned troupe.
Wynn Las Vegas HotelWynn Las Vegas Hotel and Casino offers countless services to make your stay more enjoyable. The hotel rooms at Wynn Las Vegas include Internet access through the television as well as wired connections with a complimentary network cable. They also include a fax machine in each room, and two flat screen televisions, one in the main room and one in the bathroom. The hotel offers every amenity you can think of including airport shuttle, car rental (a Hertz rental desk is located in the self park garage), a Business Center complete with notaries, courier service and the usual amenities, multiple film development options both for 35mm and digital, a laundry valet service, photography and videography services, floral decorative services, and shoe shines. Wynn's also offers boardrooms and an impressive convention area. The Convention Area itself is 20,000 square feet including a 50,000 square-foot ballroom and a 25,000 square-foot ballroom complete with technically supported stage. All meeting rooms may be divided, and each has its own terrace with views of either the golf course, pools or gardens. All convention areas feature advanced technologies, including high-speed
Internet access, wireless access, and A/V capabilities.
One of the best things about Steve Wynn's new casino in Las Vegas is the Blackjack pit at the pool. Drink Mai Tais or other drinks while playing Blackjack and enjoin the scenery. The poolside Blackjack tables are open from 8:00am to nightfall. A nice touch is the addition of plasma tv screens to watch sporting events while you play. The pool also offers cabana for the ultimate in luxury lounging. Unfortunately, the pool is limited to hotel guests.
Wynn Las Vegas is built on the site of the old Desert Inn and Steve Wynn worked with Tom Fazio to build a world class golf course adjacent to the resort. The proximity of the course is a huge advantage over most hotel/casinos in Las Vegas. Unfortunately, green fees are pricey and the rumor is that Wynn will tear down the golf course to build a new tower.
