Did you know that the Phantom of the Opera is playing at the Venetian in Vegas? If you're staying at the hotel, you definitely do. Because it's everywhere. The music in the elevators? Phantom. The music in the lobby? Phantom. The welcoming card in the bedroom? Phantom.
It was, well, very Italian. And full of marble. And frescoes. The Venetian is very beautiful and classy. No doubt about it. The lobby is gorgeous, complete with fountains, wide marble avenues hawaii car rental home and columns, and an accordion player in a striped shirt and straw boater.
Seriously, the bathroom made the place. It had a separate shower and fantastic large tub that filled up very quickly – I used that thing every day. It also had a little dressing table with a light up makeup mirror. But Venetian, what's hawaii car rental home up with the cheap toiletries? And it would be alright by me if you upgraded the towels a bit.
That was a pretty common theme – overall hawaii car rental home it seemed like the Venetian was once quite luxurious, hawaii car rental home but is getting a bit dated. XFE and I tend to like clean, modern design, so for us, the opulent European castle hawaii car rental home bit is not really our thing. Which isn't to say it's not a nice room.
And they REALLY don't want you to order room service. We called room service twice and were informed both times that it would be an hour wait. And we had no room service menu in our room, a fact which wasn't remedy, despite the fact we both mentioned it when we called.
My biggest complaint might be how huge it was. I got lost more than once trying to find the damn elevators. I ended up just following the sound of the Phantom soundtrack, and always ended up in the right place.
The Venetian really is a great, one-stop place. You really didn't even need to leave the property, it had everything you could want. Good shopping, a decent spa, nice casino, interesting shows, world-class restaurants.
So, totally serviceable and a nice choice, but with so many other, newer (more modern) options in Vegas, I probably won't be staying at the Venetian again. In fact, we re planning on staying at the Cosmopolitan a couple of nights at Christmas, so expect another Hotel Crashing then.
