We came to the Bellagio to see the incredible glass flower ceiling and to play a few slot machines while in Vegas on vacation. The ceiling was incredible and slot play was fun. The center of the hotel was done in the most incredible decor for the fall. We walked around the hotel, but there were far fewer shops then other hotels on the strip. Restaurants in the hotel were more expensive than else where in the area.
You definitely have to see the fountains if you are in Vegas. Truly incredible.
