I love that it's connected to the Palazzo because you have two beautiful hotels connected to each other. It's very classy and I just love the gondola and the shops inside the hotels. I felt so glamourous walking through the hotels and seeing all the fancy restaurants.
We were here for a bachelor party (yes, there were three girls present)... the boys had a few suites and the girls stayed at the T.I. across the street cause we're poor.
Anyway, the suites weren't as glamourous as I had envisioned them to be, to be honest. They seemed really old fashioned and not as nice as I had expected... I've seen some of the suites at the Caesar's Palace (which is older) and they were nicer than the Venetian suites...
But overall, I wouldn't mind staying here at all if I could afford it! It's definitely a great restaurant to shop/dine at and even gamble at too if you're game.
