During your Las Vegas vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
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.
Wet 'n' Wild
Before we begin, a warning: At press time, it seemed that Wet 'n Wild was facing imminent doom -- it was due to be torn down to make way for (appropriately) a water-themed resort called Voyagers. We hope they get through at least one more summer. When temperatures soar, head for this 26-acre water park right in the heart of the Strip and cool off while jumping waves, careening down steep flumes, and running rapids. There are a variety of slides and rides, plus a lazy river and a beach for those looking for more sedentary pursuits. The noise level can be extraordinarily high (people have to shout to be heard over the rushing water), so don't think of this as relaxing -- but when it's 108°F (42°C) in the shade, who cares? Also, be on the lookout for discount coupons. Many Las Vegas packages include a free admission (sometimes partial-day).
Harrah's
A mixed bag of a casino, one that is both dated (low ceilings, old lighting, stuffy) and fun (parts have high enough ceilings, and there are special attractions we will detail in a moment). The main reason to come here are the "party pits," gaming-table areas where dealers are encouraged to wear funny hats, celebrate wins, and otherwise break the usual stern dealer facade. Singing, dancing, and the handing out of party favors have all been known to erupt. (Gambling is supposed to be fun, so enjoy it!) Slot and table-game players can earn bonus points toward complimentary rooms, meals, and show tickets by joining Harrah's Total Rewards in the casino, which is also valid at sister hotel Rio. There are nonsmoking areas (fat lot of good that did, the place reeks of smoke), and free gaming lessons are offered on weekdays.
Barbary Coast Hotel & Casino
You can't fault the location of this hotel. It's right on the busiest corner of the Strip, smack in the middle of the action. With all the hotel business (the itty-bitty reception desk and tiny sundries/gift shop counter) set on the fringes of the small, dark, cluttered casino, this is very old Vegas, which is sort of a good thing; but unfortunately, it's becoming harder to wrap one's mind around it in these days of megacasino complexes. Nevertheless, a small hotel is a rare thing in this town, and a face-lift would make the Barbary Coast a nice boutique hotel. Let's encourage them in that direction.Rooms have not-precisely-inviting dark tones (think bordello burgundy) and little sitting areas separated by curtains. King rooms are more spacious. Bathrooms are dinky but not dreary, mattresses are new and thick. Beware: The very loud intersection outside can make rooms noisy.Drai's, an upscale restaurant, is covered in detail in Restaurants. Michael's is the hotel's premier restaurant, with only two seatings a night in an intimate, old-fashioned room. The food gets raves, but the menu is completely dated (chops and the like), so it's best for those with deep pockets who mistrust nouvelle cuisine. Two bars serve the casino.
Bellagio
The $1.6 billion luxury resort that ushered in the new post-Vegas-is-for-families elegance epoch. What do you get for that money? Well, for starters, though it is named for a charming Lake Como village, Bellagio is not, thankfully, as theme-intensive as some of its nearest competition. There is an 8-acre Lake Como stand-in out front, complete with a dazzling choreographed water-ballet extravaganza, plus a representation of an Italian lakeside village, while the pool area is sort of Hearst Castle Romanesque, but that's about it. Just as well. This is not much like a getaway to a peaceful, romantic Italian village. But it is exactly like going to a big, grand, state-of-the-art Vegas hotel. To expect more probably isn't fair, but then again, they tried to set the tone with dreamy, soft-focus TV ads aired when the hotel debuted. Nothing with a casino stuck in the middle of it can be that serene and restful.But does it work as a luxury hotel? Sort of. It certainly is much closer to a European casino hotel than a Vegas one. Fabulous touches abound, including a lobby that's unlike any other in Vegas. It's not just grand, with marble and a gaudy blown-glass flower sculpture on the ceiling (the largest of its kind in the world), but it's also brave with plants, natural lighting, and actual seating. There's also a downright lovely conservatory, complete with a 100-year-old fountain and stuffed full of gorgeous, brightly colored flowers and plants, preposterously (and delightfully) changed every few weeks to go with the season (yellows and whites for Easter, for example) -- it's one of the sweetest spots in all of Vegas.On the down side, you still can't avoid a walk through the casino to get just about anywhere (with the inevitable ruckus shattering your blissful state every time you exit the elevators from your room). At least the casino is laid out in an easy-to-navigate grid with wide aisles. (Tip: Black carpets indicate the main casino paths.) There are hidden charges galore (a pricey fee for the spa, another one for poolside cabanas). The rooms are nice -- nicer than The Mirage even -- but maybe not quite nice enough for the price. Furnishings are plush (good beds with quality linens, comfy chairs), the roomy bathrooms even more so (marble and glass plus good-smelling soap and hair dryers -- it works every time), but it's all just a busier and slightly more luxurious variation on what's found over at The Mirage. Strip-side rooms, while featuring a much-desired view of the hotel's dancing water fountains, don't quite muffle the booms said fountains make as they explode (although we didn't find it annoying). Note that a channel on the TV will play the songs as the fountains dance because you can't quite hear the music from your room. Still, service is top-notch, despite the size of the place; the staff is eager to please and nonpatronizing.Meanwhile, just about all the best new restaurants are found in Bellagio. Full reviews of Picasso, Le Cirque, Circo, Aqua, and Olives are found in chapter 6, as is a review of the buffet. And the man who brought us a free pirate show and a volcano explosion now brings us a water ballet, courtesy of a dancing fountain with jets timed to a rotating list of nine songs (everything from pop to Sinatra to Broadway to opera). This sounds cheesy, but it absolutely is not. It's really quite delightful and even witty (no, really), and is the best free show in Vegas.Bellagio also features an upscale casino, and O, perhaps the most incredible show yet from Cirque du Soleil.The hotel's pool area has skidded to the top of our favorites list; it boasts six swimming pools (two heated year-round and two with fountains) geometrically set in a neoclassical Roman garden, with flowered, trellised archways and Italian opera piped in over the sound system. The Grand Patio could have come right off a movie set (pillars, domes, you get the idea). Arguably a more sophisticated environment than the tropical party over at The Mirage (our other favorite), it is sure to be the place where thonged model types hang out with moneyed Eurotrash -- it comes off as that chic.The spa and health club are marvelous, but at $25 a pop, it's pretty pricey if all you want is a simple session on a treadmill (though with your fee, you are allowed to return throughout the day for additional soakings/steamings/workouts). The gym has the latest in cardio and weight machines, but can get very crowded. Attendants ply you with iced towels and drinks. The spa offers a full range of pricey treatments and has a serene soaking area, with sumptuous plunge pools ranging in temperature from icy to boiling. In addition to drinks and snacks, smoothies are often offered -- take one.The shopping area, called Via Bellagio, features all the stores that advertise in color in glossy magazines: Tiffany, Armani, Gucci, Prada, Hermès, and the like. There's also an art gallery that boasts enough highly regarded works to draw some million visitors a year.What does all this add up to? The ultimate in the Vegas luxury resort experience, certainly. If it doesn't quite work, that's probably more the fault of the initial concept than the hotel itself.Facilities: Casino; showrooms; wedding chapel; 16 restaurants; 6 outdoor pools; fitness center and spa; concierge; tour desk; car-rental desk; business center; 24-hr. room service; in-room massage; laundry service; dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms; executive-level rooms.
California Hotel/Casino & RV Park
This is a hotel with a unique personality. California-themed, it markets itself mostly in Hawaii, and since 85% of its guests are from the Aloha State, it offers Hawaiian entrees in several of its restaurants and even has an on-premises store specializing in Hawaiian foodstuffs. You'll also notice that dealers are wearing colorful Hawaiian shirts. The rooms, however, reflect neither California nor Hawaii; they have mahogany furnishings and attractive marble bathrooms.
