I just returned from Virtuoso’s luxury travel show at the Bellagio in Las Vegas. The Bellagio hosted the “best of the best” travel advisors, hoteliers, suppliers, and onsite destination specialists in a one week trade show that really has blown my mind. While I’m still processing all the information I absorbed, and trying to organize the +500 business cards I collected, I can say that I loved my stay at the Bellagio.
I’d been to Vegas before, and had popped into the Bellagio for a meal and to throw some $ in the slots. But staying at the Bellagio is a different experience. Besides the terrific fountain show out front, and the central location on the strip, the hotel is beautiful.
I can honestly say I’ve never walked so much at a convention, however. The hotel is huge! It would take me ~15 minutes to leave my room in the Bellagio Tower to reach the Convention Centre.
The room itself was gorgeous, even though I didn’t spend much time in it. (The days started very early, and ended very late.)
I hardly got outside at all during my stay (the convention was truly that busy that there were days when I didn’t venture outside the four walls at all) – but I did manage to sneak a swim or two in at the pool.
So – if you’re looking for a terrific spot to stay in Vegas, consider the Bellagio. I just stayed there for 5 nights, 6 days, and had a terrific time. Now I have to go back to take in more sights!
