Palazzo - The Real Deal :
Compared to it's sister property, The Venetian, the Palazzo's casino is equally boring, yet infinitely more spacious and much better organized. For the most part, foot traffic paths are spacious and getting from one side of the casino to another is quick and easy... amen to that.
The casino design shows a noticeable Asian influence coupled with its Italianate design sense. Interspersed between the inlaid frescoes and other Italian trimmings are architectural allusions to Shoji doors and other Chinese and Japanese interior touches.
Don't expect any phantasmic eye opening architectural wonders in the casino, essentially It's an extremely unimaginative rectangular box filled with casino games surrounded by restaurants. Ho Hum.
Palazzo History
Despite shifting its originally scheduled opening date from December 20, 2007 to January 17, 2008, the Palazzo's 'soft opening' was a bit bumpy. Reviewers from around the world reported missing furniture, dirty water in the pipes and tons of construction debris (as well as miles of blue construction tape) all over the resort. Little by little they've ironed a lot of the issues out and as of April 2008 most of the restaurants and a chunk of the shops are open.
Location of Palazzo:
The Palazzo is located to the north of the Venetian on the corner of Sands Boulevard and the Las Vegas Strip. Directly to the north of it is Wynn Las Vegas, and across the street is Treasure Island/Mirage and the Fashion Square Mall.

The Rooms at Palazzo
All of the rooms at Palazzo Las Vegas are two level suites similar to what you've probably seen at the Venetian. The Palazzo, features two types of suites, Palazzo Suites and Concierge Suites each of which has four different types of offerings:
- Luxury (King Bed, 720 square ft)
- Bella (Two Queen Beds, 720 square ft)
- Fortuna (King Bed, 940 square ft)
- Siena (King Bed, 1280 square ft, 'powder room', dining area, double door entry, marble floors, sitting area, robes, jacuzzi tub)
The Siena suite is the largest and most luxurious (and most expensive.) Essentially the difference between the Palazzo and Concierge offerings are Concierge Suites customers get access to the 23rd floor Concierge Lounge which hosts complimentary breakfast, hors d'oeuvres, bar and other snacks at all hours of the day. Concierge customers also get access to a private check in area, VIP elevators, a DVD library (cool) and can have their bags packed and unpacked by staff members. If you don't mind strangers rifling through your skivvies and/or traveling sex toy collection, feel free to enjoy this service.
Restaurants at Palazzo
The Palazzo features a number of dining options which seems to show the influence of what the Palazzo's owners learned opening the Venetian Macao. There's a ton of celebrity chefs and a ton of asian food in many varieties, including:
Carnevino - Mario Batali's Italian joint
CUT - Wolfgang Puck's steak joint
Dos Caminos - Famed New York Mexican joint's Vegas offering
Dal Toro - Italian food surrounded by Italian Lamborghini sports cars
Double Helix - wine bar on the second floor by the shops.
Espressamente Illy - Fancy name for coffee joint
Grand Lux - Chinese - a second helping of the same Grand Lux found inside the Venetian.
Jade Noodles - Dim sum.
Mainland - Pan Asian food with a twist
Morels - French steakhouse, with extensive wine list
Restaurant Charlie - Charlie Trotter's seafood joint.
Sushi Samba - sushi mixed with Brazilian food. Go figure
Table 10 - Emeril Lagasse's 'American Eatery' with an obligatory BAM
Woo - More Pan-Asian cuisine
If none of this satisfies you, you can also order room service, or head over to the Venetian to see what they've got.
Palazzo Tips
The Palazzo also features the Canyon Ranch Spa Club which is shared with the Venetian. A second spa Aquavana will open in Spring 2008 and feature a number of water/heat related spa amenities, none of which make any sense to us. If you're a spa freak, give them a call for a thorough explanation.
Service was awful! They thought we canceled our reservation (switched from Venetian), took 1.5 HOURS for a blanket and pillow, and our room was not clean when we were not in the room from 11-4:30 pm. The shopping area is awkwardly placed/designed. But, the restaurants I went to (Carnevino, David Burke) were great, the non-smoking area at the casino was nice and the Coffee Bean right near the elevators was great! Would I stay again? No. Would I eat there? Yes. Would I like to try another place? After only going ot MGM Grand, THEhotel, Venetian, and Palazzo...yes!

Palazzo is my current favorite - much like the Venetian but done much better. Better layout for sure, better pool deck, better casino, just better.

There is a lot that the Palazzo offers that I enjoy. The gaming and dining is right at the top of that list. I feel most comfortable at this property because the layout is simple and understandable.

Brand new and really nice. The rooms are the best thing about this hotel. The gambling is good. 40/40 club is over rated, but the people are very friendly.

My favorite place to just walk around in. Try roulette 1 quick drive-by...good luck so far.

A more casual, less maze-like property. The Venetian for those of us who don't like getting lost. Parking access is a godsend.

I stayed here during a conference a few months after it opened in 2008. Rooms were very nice. At the time their Grazie club was only good for 3 months and then you had to re-enroll. Pretty sure that has been changed by now.

While it has the nicest standard hotel rooms in Vegas, it has the overall feel of an upscale shopping plaza, not of a multi-billion dollar resort and casino in Las Vegas. It's just lacking the overall vibe and tiny little details that make Wynncore and Bellagio so special.

Despite having the best parking garage in town, everything about this place sucks ass. The lousy service, horrible games, overpriced food, faux luxury rooms, and total lack of personality make this my least favorite resort. And they have the nerve to call this place 5 star?!?

My wife and I stayed in April, arriving on a Thursday. Was told by the person taking phone reservations where to park in the underground parking for check-in (southwest corner by elevators). Elevators took us right up to the reservation check-in area completely on the outside of the casino area, (nice). Every check-in station was manned and no wait at all. Had a three day stay planned and had paid for a base rate room, was comped double upgraded to a view Fortuna suite (VERY NICE). I could write so much more about how our stay was COMPLETELY RELAXING but if you have the opportunity to stay there the accomodations will not disappoint. The entire staff was very responsive to any of our needs. Pool was nice, will be better when the rest open. Hope to go back there our next Vegas visit.
