The Venetian Resort Las Vegas

The Venetian Resort Las Vegas at 3355 Las Vegas Blvd S occupies a prime center-Strip position adjacent to the Palazzo tower and directly opposite the Mirage, transporting visitors to Venice through a half-scale reproduction of the city's landmark architecture — the Doge's Palace facade, the Campanile bell tower, St. Mark's Square, the Rialto Bridge, and gondola rides on an indoor canal, all rendered with considerable craft. The resort opened in 1999 and has grown to encompass both The Venetian and The Palazzo towers sharing combined resort facilities. Every one of the 4,049 Venetian accommodations is a suite, with standard rooms measuring over 650 square feet and featuring sunken living rooms with a wet bar, marble bathrooms with a separate soaking tub and walk-in shower, and views of the Strip or the pool deck. The Grand Canal Shoppes occupies the upper level with more than 160 stores, cafés, and entertainment acts beneath a sky-painted ceiling where gondoliers navigate the indoor canal through a replica Venetian piazza. The Canyon Ranch Spa Club at The Venetian covers 134,000 square feet across three floors — one of the largest spa facilities in North America — and shares space with the Canyon Ranch Fitness Center, which includes an outdoor rooftop running track. The fourth-floor pool deck features the Blue Lagoon pool, three additional pools, and private cabanas. The dining lineup includes Bouchon by Thomas Keller, Yardbird Southern Table & Bar, Matteo's Ristorante Italiano, and a strong collection of both fine-dining and casual options throughout the connected complex. The Venetian Casino is distinguished by its soaring frescoed ceilings and refined atmosphere.
