After a few days in Vegas on my first visit there, I can't stop thinking about hotels. Ones I've seen, stayed at, want to stay at, love the architecture of, etc.
So I was hoping some memorable hotels could be shared here that are out of the ordinary due to good location (Times Square), quality, design, or something else worth a look.
In Vegas, they of course have a bunch of great hotels, largely due to extravagant themes and design. The last night I was there, we went to a show at the Wynn Theatre at the Wynn and Encore. We entered by passing through the Wynn, which was the classiest and nicest place I had seen yet in Vegas. Everyone was dressed nicer and there were less smoking and drinking loners (which is, fine, since it is more typically Vegas from what I saw). Almost no t-shirts in that whole casino. It was beautiful. Then, after the show, we decided to exit by walking out through Encore.
Oh wow. That is perhaps the nicest hotel I've ever been in. We looked so underdressed there (we looked fine in the Wynn with collared shirts and decent pants. In Encore, the women were all in very nice dresses (not the occasional beauty queen party girl looks that some groups have in the other casinos before they go drink with too much make-up) and it looked like the standard there rather than the odd exception it was among the jeans in other casinos. The men were all in button-up shirts and pants with jackets. Many in suits.
It didn't look casual at all, but it was quite alluring. I'd imagine if Bond ever returned to Vegas, he would stay at Encore (unless there is some other major casino/hotel that I just didn't see that is more amazing). The decor was modern, warm, and clean. No big theme of tigers, or Italy, or movie stars, just plain individually beautiful.
I'd certainly love to stay there.
