Reviewed Casino: The Bellagio Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA.

The Bellagio opened in 1998, in Las Vegas, Center Strip, and at that time was the most expensive hotel casino ever built at $1.6 billion. One of my favorite hotel casinos, possibly the world's best.

Bellagio Hotel Casino has it all: glamour, luxurious rooms, gourmet restaurants, elegant shops, all the casino games, professional gaming staff. The hotel most attractive features include: the Fountains of Bellagio, the Bellagio Gallery of Fine Art, Via Bellagio Shopping Arcade (the shops are on the second level at the entrance - luxury at its finest), the Conservatory, and the aquatic show 'O'.

Special attractions

Fountains of Bellagio - Show

You will be swept away by this breathtaking union of water, music and light. Experience the most ambitious, commanding water feature ever conceived. Bellagio's world-famous romantic fountains 'dance' to the sound of opera, classical and whimsical music with carefully choreographed movements.

Showtimes:
Monday - Friday 3:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. every 1/2 hour; 7:00 p.m. - 12:00 a.m. every 15 minutes
Saturday & Sunday 12:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. every 1/2 hour; 7:00 p.m. - 12:00 a.m. every 15 minutes

Bellagio Conservatory - Atrium

With its botanical gardens, the Bellagio has created its very own masterpiece. The conservatory is conveniently located next to the parking garage, restrooms and lobby. The picturesque arrangements, water fountains, and pagoda make the conservatory a perfect spot to snap a photo. The restaurant Aqua has a patio facing the garden. Patrons can also reach the spa and salon through the conservatory.

The garden is a seasonal display of about 7,500 plants, trees and flowers that is changed for the holidays six to eight times a year. The process of changing over a display takes about three days.

Entertainment

'O' - Cirque Du Soleil - Show

With an international cast of 81 artists, performing in, on and above a 1.5 million gallon pool of water, Cirque du Soleil's first venture into aquatic theater has been seen by more than 2 million spectators and has earned the acclaim of journalists from around the world.

'O' (the name of the show, apparently derived from the French word 'eau' meaning water and pronounced 'o') by Cirque du Soleil (the producers) tells the tale of theater through the ages and embarks us on a 90-minute voyage where dreams seem to come true. Las Vegas Review-Journal recently honored 'O' as the best production show for the second year in a row.

Tickets for 'O' are $110, $90, and $85, plus tax, and are currently on sale up to three months in advance. To reserve by phone, call 888-488-7111 or 702-796-9999 or visit any of the local ticket offices located at Bellagio, Treasure Island or The Mirage. Two shows are held nightly Friday through Tuesday at 7:30pm and 10:30pm.
