The Aladdin Resort & Casino bears the distinction of being the only resort
in Vegas history to rise from the dead: it was imploded in 1998 and then rebuilt.
It's an even grander resort in its second life, practically bursting with magic.
Themed after several stories from the Arabian Nights, the Aladdin feels like
another world. Ebony Horses stampede from the race and sports book, the Roc's
Nest Bar affords the birds-eye view its name implies and a giant Djinni's lamp
smokes in the casino center. And there are other, more practical kinds of magic
at the Aladdin -- the rain that falls gently from the "sky" of the mammoth Desert
Passage shopping mall, and an innovative, multi-floor casino layout that
allows guests to access their rooms from check-in without trekking through the
gaming areas.
Add to these technical and aesthetic wonders the exclusive London Club casino,
the ultracool Blue Note Jazz Club, a host of critically acclaimed restaurants
and the Theatre for the Performing Arts -- one of the best concert venues in
Vegas -- and you've got a veritable Cave of Wonders. The Aladdin is in the business
of granting your wishes, and business is good.
