feet, the Palazzo lives up to its Little pity for gambling att'y
name. It's a $1.8 billion palace that's
all about luxury, Vegas-style. Handschuh/News
The suites, which go from $199 to The new $1.8 billion Palazzo rises 50 stories
above The Strip.
$1,700 per night, boast sunken living
rooms, sculpted carpets and plenty
of velour. Larger suites feature foyers made entirely of Italian marble and
semiformal dining areas.
There are tons of fun amenities, including remote-controlled Roman shades and
curtains for those who don't want to get out of their king-size beds for such a
menial chore.
I was a guest at the Palazzo's recent opening celebration, and during my three days
there I discovered something new in my room each night of my stay - from the flat-
screen, hi-def television I watched from my spacious tub in the all-marble bathroom
(the suite had two other large-screen TVs), to the color copier/printer/fax machine in
the living room workspace.
Amenities aside, Vegas hotels want you to get out of your room and spend your
money - and of course they want you to do it in their respective place. You can try
your luck in the Palazzo's soon-to-be smoke-free casino, or indulge your shopping
jones in one of the more than 60 boutiques and luxury-brand stores at The
Shoppes in The Palazzo.
