During your Las Vegas vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Sahara
This is one place where there seem to be more tables than slots and video-poker machines. It's also one of the few Strip casinos that offers low rollers good deals such as $1 craps and blackjack. But belligerent drunks and other fun-killing folks are often found at these $1 tables. Still, on a recent visit, the high ceilings and the unexpected Arabian Nights touches over the tables were nicer than we remembered from previous visits (maybe it all got dusted recently) and we made a killing at blackjack, so now we love this place again. (What? We told you it was entirely arbitrary!) The Sahara runs frequent slot tournaments and other events, and its slot club, Club Sahara, offers cash rebates and other perks. Note: This is the only Strip casino that offers pan, a card game.
Graceland Wedding Chapel
Housed in a landmark building that's one of the oldest wedding chapels in Vegas, the Graceland bills itself as "the proverbial mom and pop outfit. We offer friendly, courteous service, and are willing to go that extra step." No, Elvis never slept here (one of the owners was friends with Elvis and asked his permission to use the name). This is a tiny New England church building with a small bridge and white picket fence out front. Inside is a 33-seat chapel; the walls are burgundy and white, with a large, modern stained-glass window of doves and roses behind the pulpit. The pews are dark blond wood. It's not the nicest of the chapels, but Catherine Oxenberg and Caspar Van Diem got married here. Jon Bon Jovi and Lorenzo Lamas did also, though not to each other.
Craig Ranch Golf Club
This is a flat 18-hole, par-70 public course with many trees and bunkers; both narrow and open fairways feature Bermuda turf. The greens fees are a bargain, and you can reserve tee times 7 days in advance.Yardage: 6,001 regular and 5,221 ladies.Facilities: Driving range, pro shop, PGA teaching pro, putting green, and snack bar.
Hard Rock Hotel & Casino
As soon as you check out the Hard Rock clientele, you'll know you are in a Vegas hotel that's like no other. The body-fat percentage (and median age) plummets; the percentage of black clothing skyrockets. Yep, the hip -- including Hollywood and the music industry, among others -- flock to the Hard Rock, drawn by the cool 'n' rockin' ambience and the goodies offered by a boutique hotel (only in Vegas could 657 rooms be considered a "boutique hotel"). Our problem is that we are not famous pop stars and we do not look enough like Pamela Anderson to warrant the kind of attention that the staff seems to reserve for those types.It's that Boomer-meets-Gen-X sensibility that finds tacky-chic so very hip. Luckily, the "no-tell motel" look of the older rooms has been updated to more closely match the decor of the rooms in the new addition. We still aren't crazy about the decor scheme in any of them -- even the newer section is too '60s-futuristic hip to come off as posh, and all of it is showing more wear than it ought to. Bathrooms are a big step forward -- bigger, brighter, and shinier, though in the older section they can be cramped, spacewise, in suites. On a high note, the beds have feather pillows, and mattresses are surprisingly comfortable. Uncharacteristically large 27-inch TVs (most hotel sets are smaller, since they want you in the casino, not staring at the tube) offer special music channels.The lobby borders on the casino (you can see how that immediately plunges you into the action, like it or not), which takes the center position in the round public area you immediately enter when arriving. On the perimeter is a collection of rock memorabilia, ranging from sad (a Kurt Cobain tribute) to cool (various guitars and outfits) to useless (various other guitars and outfits). The Hard Rock now has a permanent, if unwelcome and sad, bit of rock memorabilia for its collection: John Entwistle, bassist for the Who, died in one of its rooms on the eve of the start of a tour with the band.There are several fine restaurants, including AJs Steakhouse, a tribute to owner Peter Morton's dad, who brought us the legendary Morton's. You'll also find Nobu, a branch of highly famed chef Nobu Matsuhisa's wildly popular Japanese restaurant. Kicky and funky Mexican food can be had at lunch and dinner in the Mexican, folk-art-filled Cantina Pink Taco, while three diner-type meals a day are served at the 22-seat Counter. The Hard Rock's premier restaurant, Mortoni's, is a beauty that serves vast portions of Italian fare. Mr. Lucky's 24/7 is the hotel's round-the-clock coffee shop, displaying rock memorabilia and old Las Vegas hotel signs. And the Hard Rock Cafe is adjacent to the hotel.The Joint is a major showroom that often hosts big-name rock musicians.If you've ever dreamed of being in a beach party movie, or on the set of one of those MTV summer beach-house shows, the reconstructed pool at the Hard Rock is for you. Multiple pools are joined by a lazy river, and fringed in spots by actual sand beaches. You won't get much swimming done -- the water is largely so shallow that it won't hit your knees -- but there is swim-up blackjack (they give you little plastic pouches to hold your money), and a stage that features live music in the summer and is fronted by a sandy area, so you can make like Frankie, Annette, and Erik Von Zipper and do the Watusi. Or just pose in a thong bikini and new breasts. Whichever. On warm days and nights, this is the hangout scene.The newly refurbished spa is smaller than its Strip counterparts but is soothing in its posh Space-Age-Zen way, and the health club is plenty large and well equipped, offering a full complement of Cybex equipment, stair machines, treadmills, massage, and steam rooms. There's an $18 per day fee to use the health-club facilities.
Paris-Las Vegas Casino Resort
Sacre bleu! The City of Light comes to Sin City in this, one of the most recent fantasy hotels to hit the Strip. It's theme-run-amok time again, and we are so happy about it. The outside reproduces various Parisian landmarks (amusing anyone familiar with Paris, as the Hotel de Ville is crammed on top of the Louvre), complete with a half-scale perfect replica of the Eiffel Tower. The interior puts you in the middle of a dollhouse version of the city. You can stroll down a mini-Rue de la Paix, ride an elevator to the top of the Eiffel Tower, stop at an overpriced bakery for a baguette, and take your photo by several very nice fountains.You'll find signage employing the kind of dubious use of the French language that makes genuine Frenchmen really cross ("le car rental" and so forth), while all the employees are forced to dust off their high school French ("Bonjour, Madame! Merci beaucoup!") when dealing with the public. Don't worry, it's all not quite enough to make you sick to "le stomach."Quel dommage, this attention to detail does not extend to the rooms, which are nice enough but disappointingly uninteresting, with furniture that only hints at mock French Regency. Bathrooms are small but pretty, with deep tubs. Try to get a Strip-facing room so that you can see Bellagio's fountains across the street; note also that north-facing rooms give you nice Peeping-Tom views right into neighboring Bally's. The brand-new monorail has a stop out back. Overall, not a bad place to stay but a great place to visit -- quel hoot!The hotel has eight more-or-less French-themed restaurants, including a highly lauded buffet, the Eiffel Tower restaurant (located guess where), and bistro Mon Ami Gabi, all of which are covered in Restaurants. The bread for all these restaurants is made fresh on-site at the bakery. You can buy delicious, if pricey, loaves of it at the bakery, and we have to admit that's kinda fun. There are also five lounges.Facilities: Casino; showrooms; 2 wedding chapels; 11 restaurants; outdoor pool; health club and spa; concierge; tour desk; business center; shopping arcade; 24-hr. room service; laundry service; dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms; executive-level rooms.
Fitzgeralds Casino & Hotel
Fitzgeralds recently got a new owner, the first African American to own a Vegas casino, an interesting bit of trivia. Positive changes have come in his wake, though at this writing, mostly in the public areas. Largely gone is the luck o' the Irish theme, which makes us sad when we think about Mr. O'Lucky, the hotel's longtime mascot, but not so much when it comes to all the rest of the leprechauns and shamrocks and other bits of Blarney nonsense. The casino has been brightened up, so it's now one of the nicer places to gamble Downtown, while the hallways and check-in area have been redone; and a new outdoor pool -- a rare amenity for Downtown in general, and open until the unheard of (in Vegas) hour of 9pm -- opened in summer 2003. More renovation work and upgrading is scheduled to take place. Right now, you can expect a sort of Irish country-village walkway, complete with giant fake trees, leading to the room elevators. Fitzgeralds has the only balcony in Downtown from which you can watch the Fremont Street Experience. You can also sit in its McDonald's and gawk at the light show through the atrium windows.The rooms are clean and comfortable, featuring standard hotel-room decor done in shades of green. Because this is the tallest building Downtown (34 stories), you get excellent views: snowcapped mountains, Downtown lights, or the Strip. Whirlpool-tub rooms are $20 more and are slightly larger, offering wraparound windows.
