My family and I spent the first through the fourth of April in Las Vegas, and after staying in the Bellagio, I have vowed to never stay at another hotel in Las Vegas. The hotel was breathtaking, the service was wonderful and the casino is the most beautiful in Vegas. From the moment we arrived at the door via the Limo the Bellagio comped for us, for being part of the VIP service plan, every staff member we were assisted by knew our names. We were taken into the VIP checkin lounge where there were fresh strawberries dipped in chocolate and a full bar.
We hadn't even made it up to the room yet and were already having a great time. Our bellman escorted us up to our penthouse suite, where we were given the full tour of the beautiful room. He was very polite and happy to answer any of our questions about the technologically advanced room. We dined at Picasso's which, was an experience in itself. our table was perched on the fountain display, so every fifteen minutes of our meal we were treated to the signature performance of Bellagio.
Picasso's was pricey, and the food was French and Spanish inspired. I am glad we went, however, it is doubtful that we will ever return. I was disappointed that our room did not have a fountain view, and disappointed that some spa services were not available due to construction. However, the Bellagio truly lived up to all the expectations I had, and exceeded some. I have stayed in many five star hotels throughout the country, and the Bellagio is among the top three I have had the chance to experience. This hotel is everything I heard it would be. The Cirque Du Soleil "O" was absolutely unbelievable. The hotel reserves the best seats in the theatre for thier guests. Our seats were six rows back, but I would reccommend ten rows back, simply because the stage is huge, and its hard to take it all in from such close proximity. In sum, this discriminating guest has no complaints whatsoever about the Bellagio, in fact, nothing but praise. I can honestly say this was an amazing hotel experience in a city which too often fails to pay attention to the small details- something Bellagio definitely does not fail to do. Highly reccommended.
