During your Las Vegas vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:

Las Vegas Motor Speedway
This 107,000-seat facility was the first new super-speedway to be built in the Southwest in over 2 decades. A $100 million state-of-the-art motor-sports entertainment complex, it includes a 1 1/2-mile super-speedway, a 2 1/2-mile FIA-approved road course, paved and dirt short-track ovals, and a 4,000-foot drag strip. Also on the property are facilities for Go-Kart, Legends Car, Sand Drag, and Motocross competition. The new speedway is accessible via shuttle buses to and from the Imperial Palace hotel, though some of the other major hotels have their own shuttles to the speedway.

Bellagio Art Gallery
Everyone -- ourselves not nearly least among them -- scoffed when then-Bellagio owner Steve Wynn opened an art gallery on his fabulous property. Sure, Wynn's been a serious and respected fine-art collector for years, and consequently there was good stuff on display (though there are no masterpieces, there certainly are serious works by masters), but who would go see art in Las Vegas? Tons of tourists, as it happens, so many that they had to almost immediately relocate the gallery to a larger space.When the MGM MIRAGE company bought Wynn's empire, the future of the gallery, which did rely on his collection (he took most of it with him), was in doubt. Surprise again, you scoffers (and that again includes us). The gallery is not only open again, it's getting written up by real art critics, thanks in part to such well-chosen shows as an exhibit from the collection of none other than Steve Martin -- yes, we mean the stand-up-comedian-turned-actor-turned-playwright/author. See, he's a longtime well-respected collector too, and consequently there were real-life reviewers, hushed with happy reverence, who took the whole show most seriously indeed.Now, will there be as interesting a show when you go? Beats us. (When we wrote this, it was an acclaimed exhibit of European masterpieces -- silver, gold, jewelry, furniture, and rare books on loan from England's famous Chatsworth manor.) Then there's that ticket price. Do let us point out that the Louvre and the Vatican art collections -- both of which are, needless to say, quite a bit larger and both of which, one can safely say, do have some notable works -- cost around $9.

The California Hotel/Casino
The California is a festive place filled with Hawaiian shirts and balloons. This friendly facility actually provides sofas and armchairs in the casino area -- an unheard-of luxury in this town. Players can join the Cal Slot Club and amass points toward gifts and cash prizes, or participate in daily slot tournaments. This is the first place we found our favorite Piggy Bankin' machines.

Motel 6
Fronted by a big neon sign, Las Vegas's Motel 6 is the largest in the country, and it happens to be a great budget choice. Most Motel 6 properties are a little out of the way, but this one is quite close to major Strip casino hotels (the MGM is nearby). It has a big, pleasant lobby, and the rooms, in two-story, cream-stucco buildings, are clean and attractively decorated. Some rooms have showers only; others have tub and shower bathrooms. Local calls are free.

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.

Mandalay Bay
Mandalay Bay is one of our favorite hotels. Why? Well, we love that the lobby (impossibly high ceilings, calm, gleaming with marble, and housing a large aquarium) and the other public areas really do make this seem more like an actual resort hotel than just a Vegas version of one. You don't have to walk through the casino to get to any of these public areas or the guest-room elevators, the pool area is spiffy, and the whole complex is marginally less confusing and certainly less overwhelming than some of the neighboring behemoths.We wouldn't say it really evokes colonial Southeast Asia -- oh, maybe around the edges, if you squint, thanks to the odd bit of foliage or Balinese carving. This may well keep out the gawkers, who are looking for bigger visual thrills, but we find a place whose theme doesn't bop you over the head refreshing.The rooms are among the most desirable on the Strip (king rooms are more attractive than doubles), spacious and subdued in decor. Tropical influence seems to be limited to faux leopard-skin chairs by the worktables, and plantation shutter doors to closets and the bathroom (unfortunately, the bathroom's shutter doors seem to not entirely join together, leaving a gap of varying size). King beds have large, carved headboard posts and firm mattresses. The bathrooms are the crowning glory -- probably the best on the Strip -- they're downright large, with impressive, slightly sunken tubs, glassed-in showers, double sinks, and separate water closets, plus fab amenities and lots of them. (Bathrobes are available on request.)Service overall is pretty good, and those pool-area employees are the tops in Vegas, though there were no security guards at the guest elevators. A monorail system connects the hotel with Luxor and Excalibur, which are located in the heart of the Strip action, and this should more than help you get over any feelings of isolation.The restaurants in Mandalay Bay feature some of the most innovative interiors in Vegas, each one more whimsical and imaginative than the next. Even if you don't eat at the hotel, drop in and poke around the restaurants. Aureole, a branch of Charlie Palmer's renowned New York City restaurant, the Border Grill, Red Square, and the buffet are reviewed in chapter 6. And then there's rumjungle, which features a dramatically skewered, all-you-can-eat, multicourse Brazilian feast, which you'll enjoy while listening to world-beat drums, surrounded by walls of fire and water and other striking visual features. More casual food can be found at the House of Blues, whose Southern delicacies are often quite palate pleasing; HOB is probably the best place in town to see rock bands. Mandalay Bay has a showroom and a separate arena, which was inaugurated by none other than Luciano Pavarotti, and currently offers Mamma Mia!, the Broadway musical of ABBA songs. See Nightlife for details on the hotel's major nightlife offerings. There's also a big, comfortable casino, airier and less claustrophobic than most, plus three bars, often featuring live music (including rock impersonator acts) at night.There are no fewer than four pools (entering this area is like going to a water park, thanks to upgraded security -- all guests, regardless of age, must show a room key), including the touted wave pool, which is unfortunately a classic example of Vegas bait-and-switch. It can't handle waves of any serious size, but bobbing in the miniwaves is delightful, as is floating happily in the lazy river (tubes are available for rental -- we say save some bucks and share a tube with friends, taking turns using it). All in all, this area alone makes this resort a top choice for families, sans, perhaps, the topless swimming area.The health club is sufficiently stocked to give you a good workout (it should be, as they charge guests $27 per day to use it). The spa area proper -- featuring hot and warm pools, plus a cold plunge -- is exotically designed, as close to those found in the Turkish spas in Eastern Europe as we've come across, though without the patina (read: weathered decay) of decades or centuries, which can be a good thing. Load up on that rich moisturizer when dressing -- it costs $17 a bottle in the store outside the door.See the separate listing for Mandalay Bay's new THEhotel addition.Facilities: Casino; 12,000-seat events center; 1,700-seat performing-arts theater; 16 restaurants; 4 outdoor pools; health club and spa; Jacuzzi; sauna; watersports equipment/rental; concierge; tour desk; business center; 24-hr. room service; in-room massage; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms; executive-level rooms.
