Venetian

Surround yourself with extravagance as you enjoy some of the most advanced casino games that Vegas has to offer at the Venetian. Walk across marble floors, admire the hand-painted ceilings and feel pampered when you sit on restful and plush furniture, enjoying the most beautiful aspects of Venice. In fact, you may find many guests taking pictures of the Venetian as if they were at a historical landmark.

Replicas of famous Venice landmarks set the tone, including St. Mark’s Square, a portion of Dodge’s Palace and Campanile. Of course, there are also canals. The Venetian has even aged the stone used in the construction of these replicas to create an authentic look.

When originally opened, the Venetian was the most expensive resort in the world.

The Venetian is not only a five-diamond hotel, but the largest five-diamond hotel in the world, providing an endless amount of luxury and elegance. With its enormous size, you can expect to get lost, despite the best efforts by the architects to make navigation easy – its just that big. Not to worry, there are individual entrances on the outside that lead to different parts of the resort, making expedition manageable.

The Venetian is a world of contrast. While built to embody the culture and art of an antiquated Venice, one of the most significant cultural centers of Europe, the Venetian also incorporates the most advanced technology available. Their slot and video poker machines are cutting edge.

The casino boasts some 120,000 square feet of opulence and there are over 2,500 slot machines, including Megabucks and Super Megabucks - including slots with jackpots that surpass one billion dollars. For just one dollar, you’ll have a chance to win 30 million with Megabucks. The slots range from one penny to $500 a pull (or a press).

The Venetian has one of the largest poker rooms in the world at 11,000 square feet and is filled with over 35 poker tables. The Venetian especially caters to poker players who love Texas Hold’em, Stud, and Omaha - all played in an entirely smoke-free area.

As with all casinos of this quality, the Venetian provides a high-stakes area with seven tables. For the most talented high rollers (or the biggest risk takers), there’s a high limit area called the Gold Club lounge. Enjoy some of the best amenities; including food and beverage service as well as cutting-edge flat screen TV’s. You’ll also receive butler service, two relaxation areas and the finest dining experience imaginable.

There’s also over 20 table games with all of the favorites like blackjack and roulette, as well as less common games like pai gow tiles, Caribbean Stud, big six, casino war and Spanish 21.

Play baccarat in a more isolated part of the casino. The limits are often higher at the Venetian than pretty much any place else.

Routinely, the Venetian offers free live demonstrations on games such as roulette, craps, and blackjack.

The Race and Sports book lets you place bets while watching sports games on multiple big screen monitors, with over 35 televisions and three big screen TV’s. Catch multiple games playing simultaneously so that you’ll know whether or not you called the winner.
