The very soul of Venice lives and breathes at the Venetian, Sheldon Adelson's
breathtaking mega-resort. Combining the latest technology, truly mammoth scale
and the venerable art and culture of the European jewel, the Venetian's take
on Venice is a must see.
A detailed, exquisite fresco covers the arched ceiling leading from registration
into the casino, promising great things. And those things are delivered in short
order - a wealth of shopping experiences in the 500,000 square foot Grand
Canal Shoppes, which, true to its name, has a canal winding through it with
gondolas drifting elegantly along its length; a number of five-star restaurants,
created by such culinary giants as Emeril Lagasse, Joachim Splichal and Paulo
"Zeffirino" Belloni; a version of Madame Tussaud's famous wax museum and
much more.
The spacious rooms are wired for the next century, with multiple modem lines
and fax machine/computer printer. Needless to say, the rooms are aesthetically
stunning as well as technologically sound, with refinements from Italian marble
in the bathrooms to a mini-bar. Ah, la dolce vita.
