| - I've stayed at a few hotels in Vegas, and this one is by far the best I've ever experienced. I realized it's a little pricey, but it's worth every cent in my humble opinion.
Let's start with check-in. They had everything absolutely perfect. They knew I had paid for the room through Delta Vacations and had charged the upgrade directly from them. Great start!
The room. Oh, the room! When I made the upgrade with Bellagio, they moved us up to the 25th floor with a lake view. The bathroom was exquisite with it's marble foyer and bath. The bed was so comfortable! My only recommendation is that they add a floor-length mirror in the foyer like at the Aria. I know they have the mirrors in the armoir, but the doors don't open as far as I'd like to be able to see myself without holding the door--minor criticism to say the least.
The hotel staff were all wonderfully polite and accommodating. Housekeeping comes by twice a day, and they greet you whenever they see you in the hallway. Even the maintenance staff greeted us in the hallway! The first morning we woke up late and saw that we had a message from housekeeping saying they weren't able to service our room because of our privacy hanger. After we called them back, they said they'd be more than happy to service the room. So nice!
The hotel has great restaurants, exquisite decorations, feng shui casino, and they have the Cirque du Soleil, "O" theatre! The only thing lacking really are a couple cheap places where you can grab a quick bite. We made up for that by taking the tram to City Center for that though.
Another great example of how accommodating this place is my friend wanted to see a fountain show featuring Celine Dion. He ended up calling the concierge who called someone to verify if and when the next Dion song would be. Unfortunately she informed him that they would not be playing the song for the next two days, but to our surprise, the very next show was "My Heart will Go On".
A second example is when we checked-out. They said we had had some pretzels, but we didn't. They immediately took care of the issue for us. Furthermore, check out is at noon. We didn't check out until 2pm, and they didn't bring it up as an issue.
If you're looking for a great hotel in Vegas on the Strip, you need to come to Bellagio. I was extremely pleased with everything here, which was a surprise even to me.
