The Venetian

It's important to know this is the biggest resort in the US. Lots and lots of walking is a requirement to get around. That said, it is amazing and beautiful. We have stayed in most of the stip hotels, plus Golden Nugget. This is always our favorite when we are healthy and in good shape for all the walking. We normally always book direct, but had such a great offer from Southwest airlines that we booked the package. Our included room was a low floor with a view of a roof, however it was still the promised suite. It took a $40 tip to the front desk to get us a 32nd floor suite with a pool view that never had pet in it (allergies). The front desk person also noticed that I limped up to the desk. After the tip, he also offered a double room close to the elevator in the North Tower, close to rideshare. The room and loction was absolutely perfect. Worth every cent of the tip! Hey, we tip for good service other places, why not those who truly enhance the stay? Restaurants are outstanding, housekeeping is wonderful, elevators are plentiful and they work, and the beds are outstanding. Love having a seperate living area with television. There is even a small fridge for personal beverages. We played in 7 casinos and had the best luck at Venetian (not Palazzo). Delicious drinks at Bellini Bar from Famous Dave (not so much the other bartenders). We went home with more money than we came with...and used our "reserves" to cover the expenses. The casino host was kind enough to comp us one of the Delmonico meals and resort fees....so always do room charges for the points. Only negative during the entire stay was the horrible meal at Buddy V's and a few of the cocktail servers getting drinks for guys and ignoring girls. Very evident and several different employees and guests talked about it happening....we actually watched it happening so we had to agree that there is a problem. It remains our favorite hotel and we are already excited for our next trip.

Resort refused to honor drink credit. Rewards team was rude.

To start with, the rooms were wonderful! They are spacious and the rooms are all suites, and believe me they are sweet! Parking is free for guests certain rewards programs and close to the elevator that goes to your rooms. Speaking of the elevators, they have different sets of elevators for floor sections like floors 1-15, 16-30 and so on. This makes it so easy and fast. The pools are beautiful and the Palazzo/Venetian has several to choose from. There are many restaurants to choose from and a great food court also. The casino is well ventilated and no smoke odor, speaking of the casino, WOW its beautiful! With lots of fun to things choose from. We had a great time. Noodle Asia has always been my favorite restaurant, my favorite dish, Spicy Yin Nan noodles. It is noodles with seafood like shrimp, fish balls and more. The ingredients are spicy and delicious. My slot machine waitress Pua from Hawaii was wonderful and always making her rounds quickly and very helpful, Pua was extremely helpful and friendly and has wonderful positive attitude Crystal Yip is a wonderful Host and helped me out with my stay at the Palazzo. Crystal is a professional and very helpful.

Everything is so clean and so fancy there was an endless mall and the room had a great view of the sphere and you HAVE to try the boats they sing so nice I had a great time

I was so disappointed in this hotel. The only reason I stayed at the Venetian was because it was close to the Sphere where I was going to see a show. I would rather have stayed somewhere else and taken a taxi to the Sphere. For the money I paid for this room, there was no coffee machine, no water glasses in the bathroom, there were lights on the bases of the floor and some furniture that did not turn off, and I had to go around and cover them with something so I could sleep. But the big thing for me was having to either walk five miles to get coffee in the morning or wait for an hour to have coffee delivered for a price of $45, which is obscene. Then, when I was leaving in the morning for the airport, I stood in line where the taxis are and a fight broke out among the hotel employee (who was flagging the taxis in for the customers) and a taxi driver that the employee had passed over as the taxis moved up in line. It was very disconcerting and ended my stay at the Venetian on a very bad note (which I was feeling anyway).
