Bellagio

The Bellagio set the standard for luxury when it opened in 1998. Once a part of the respected Mirage chain of hotels, this enormously popular mid-strip property boasts over 3,200 rooms, several of the finest restaurants in the city, a beautiful casino, a showroom, a high-priced shopping galleria, a 12-acre lake complete with a water and sound show, and world-class service throughout. With standard-double room prices usually starting around $189 per night and going up from there, this is an exclusive boutique hotel in a massive package.
