You can actually forget your in a hotel when visiting the Grand Canal Shoppes in the Venetian because it is so large, so well done with all the details, that you feel like your outside walking the streets of Venice but without the stinky Venetian water. Our last visit we didn't even leave the hotel because there is so much to do there with all the casinos, bars, clubs, restaurants, and entertainment. Great place to visit on the strip, and an even better place to stay.
