We just spent 5 days at the Venetian and would go back tomorrow if possible. The rooms are very nice, a little on the dark side, but furnished very nice. The beds are perfect and the bathrooms are spacious. We also were on the 27th floor and the view was good, not as good as the Augutus tower at Caesars, (you can read that review which was in July, here also, under Caesars), but still decent. We had already seen Blue-man 2 times before so did not go again.

I must say the girl at check-in was professional and courteous. Don't believe anyone about signage, they are everywhere, just look up. The security to get on the elevators is a nice touch, and yes they do check you often, no matter how you are dressed. The staff also comes to your room in the evening and puts on some low music and leaves chocolates on the bed, I really like chocolate so this is a nice treat to me. The fresh flowers in the bathroom everyday is also a very nice touch.

I did not win money on this trip and still have a positive review of this fine hotel. The dealers were fun to interact with and the girls bringing the drinks are by far the best Vegas has to offer, and believe me, I have played all over Vegas. From the Wynn to Fremont Street.

Enjoy your stay.

Enjoy!we did!

Just got back from a five night stay at the venetian.We went to watch Ricky Hatton and combined the trip with our belated honeymoon.
Got to the airport and picked up our luggage with no problems then went to get a taxi.Its not my first visit to vegas and asked the cab driver for no tunnel.I got charged $25 for the trip which at first i thought was ok but going back to the airport on our return journey we only got charge $14 so i think we were ripped off a bit.
The hotel;What can i say it was great,checkin was simple with no wait and we were upgraded to a room with a strip view.Our room was on the 27th floor and we overlooked the mirage and treasure island.The room was massive the biggest room i'd every stayed in.Bathroom was beautiful all marbel and gold with plenty of toiletries and towels.Bed was to die for.We used the mini bar a couple of times for beers cost about $8 each but it was $7-8 in the casinos so on the whole not too bad.I did fell the room needed some drawers though.
Food; We ate in the grand lux and found it clean and a good price.We also had $250 slot credit that came with the room rate,we made good use of that and had a great time on the slots.

On the sat night we went to the fight at the MGM and had a blast,then went to the voodoo lounge at the Rio.Now that wasn't too good we paid $100 for front line passes and open bar,but the club was very dirty with not many free seating unless you paid extra.The toilets were awful.

On monday we went to the grand canyon by plane then helicopter to bottom on a boat then back by plane.It was a long day but well worth it.I did think the canyon was a bit too commericalised.

Overall i had a great trip and would recomend the Venetian to anyone,had a super time and felt very special staying in such a loverly hotel.

I have never written a negative review of a hotel before, but felt so strongly about this one, I am compelled to do so. The property was superficially opulent, but the trimmings are not substantiated. The lobby/casino were "okay" by Las Vegas standards. Ventilation and signage were poor. Service was exceedingly poor, with a poor attitude overall.
The room was large - but that's where the positives end. It was musty, borderline clean, and was the most poorly lighted room, I've ever stayed in. What may have once been nice furnishings are showing their age.
The worst problem was one encountered shortly after arrival. My husband broke a tooth, and was in severe pain. We left the room in a rush, and sought help from the concierge. The person adamantly refused to help him find emergency dental help. She finally handed him a phone book. After several calls , and no success finding help, my husband demanded to see a manager, and was finally put in touch with a dentist who would see him. Not unexpectedly, he left in a rush. I then discovered that I had left my 'key' in the room - and he had taken his with him. I went to the front desk. I asked for a new key, and they asked for photo ID. I had left this in the room as well. I explained the situation, and asked if security could let me in, and I could produce my ID. The woman then pulls up the reservation, which was made by my husband's secretary - in his name. She begins to berate me in a loud voice, in a crowded lobby - says she cannot help me, my name isn't even on the reservation and I have no ID. I have never been talked to this way anywhere by anyone. I asked to see a manager. She stomped off, then returned with a young man. When I opened my mouth to explain, he cut me off, said he'd heard it all from his employee, and they couldn't help me.
It took me hours to reach my husband by phone because he was having an emergency dental procedure. When I did, he called the front desk, then called me back. I returned to the desk, stood in line for a while, was waited on by someone else, explained the issue again. He retreated to the back, returned with a new 'key' to my room and gave it to me. No ID, no security, no manager, no apology, no explanation, nothing. All based on a phone call by someone who said he was my husband. I have never encountered such ineptitude or rudeness in many years of traveling and staying in first rate hotels. It won't happen again. Joan Pizitz MD Birmingham, AL
