okay, we were in venice the christmas before and now in the venetian this year......this hotel is huge!!
food courts, shopping, venetian masks, caricatures being painted, gondolas, art displays- twas mental the carpark was ginormous!
the rooms were gorgeous.

outside pool was freezing!

cleaner nicked my Balmain watch though which was so crappy. getting to the bottom of that was very tough...

i'd have preferred the bellagio, was overwhelmed by the hotel but staff robbing ain't good enough,.

We spent two days at the Venetian after our wedding in the Grand Canyon and a very serious butt kicking honeymoon of hiking and climing.

When we got to the hotel we just wanted to relax in luxury and thats exactly what it offered. Beautiful huge suite, great room service, pretty nice spa, great location. I am more of a B and B, or boutique hotel or historic hotel lover, but we definitly enjoyed ourselves. We just had a couple hours after all of our spa-ing to check out the strip, so being at the Venetian offered an awesome prime location to hit all of the hotspots.

Venetian was 5 star all the way. We had no problem with service. Pool area was very nice. What I liked about this hotel is I did not have to walk through the casino to get a coffee in the morning. Coffee and pastrie place was right by the elevators. Nice and convienient. Also the pool was on the 4th floor and you did not have to go through the casino to get to it like some of the other hotels we have stayed at. The rooms were beautiful. We did not touch anything in the fridge because as said before if you even touch the stuff it will send message down to the front desk that you have used it. Everything is on sensors. There is a ABC drugstore on the front of the hotel on the strip were you can pick up pop and snacks. I paid 3.50 for flavoured water at the hotel and at ABC it was 1.99. We truly loved this hotel and will be back.

I "heard" the Venetian is the largest resort/hotel in the world. After staying there for a week I would say, if it isn't, I don't want to see the largest. It is impressive in size, service, and amenities, but plan on getting lost. I heard someone try to use their key to enter my room late one night. No worries, I thought, I have done the same thing. A few minutes later house keeping tried to enter my room, but thank goodness I had the door latched. I assume, because it would have been so far to get to the front desk, and it being close to 2 am, this person called and house keeping used their master key to help this person get entry. The door did open, the latch caught, and I heard an accented, "I'm sorry."
The exercise facility is as impressive as the casino. The shopping plaza/mall is something to experience. I couldn't affort to shop there, but it was extremely well done.
If someone else was paying I would stay here again. The rooms are large and the beds are comfortable. With my own money I don't thing I would pay for a room here and then make my normal contributions to Vegas at the same time.
