has stayed at the Bellagio in Las Vegas?

fwh and I will celebrate our 20th anniversary, therefore, I want to do something very special. First time we went to Vegas, we were with his Mom & Dad. We are going for the shows, and very little gambling.

I would be going to the Bellagio in early June. I can get a partial lake view, a lake view, or a Tower deluxe King with a panoramic view.

Is it worth the money to go for the Tower deluxe King. Not a bad $$$$ for early June. $269/night.

Mrs MacRae and I have stayed at the Bellagio but for several reasons we prefer The Venetian where you get a suite and the prices should be comparable. An advantage to the Venetian for non gamblers like us is they have a much better food court for breakfast. No buffet but you can get a decent breakfast for under $10.00. Also, it is close to Fashion Show Mall, Wynn Shops and Caesar's Shops. I would recommend the Cirque de Soleil show Love a Beatles tribute. All the seats are the same pricey 165 each but if you book early you can get in rows D -H where the views are spectacular we were in D at Christmas.

Thanks Macrae...btw, we could be related, my Aunt married a Macrae. She was originally a McTigue.

I will check into the Ventian!

The MacRae is from my maternal grandmother's maiden name and they were from a small town in Ontario Alexandria on the rail line between Ottawa and Montreal

I've stayed at both the Bellagio and Venetian, and I agree with Mac. I liked the Bellagio a LOT, but I liked the Venetian even more.

That said, you can't go wrong with either. I had a regular suite at the Bellagio, and it was very nice, but the Deluxe would probably be worth the extra, if it's not TOO much extra.

Like Mac said.

KT,

Hmmm, the upgraded suite has a panoramic view of the strip & fountains.

Its cheaper than the Venetian (suite) room rate wise.

The upgraded suite is not much more $$$$. I am choosing to go in the beginning of the month, since the prices are more reasonable.

I am trying to save a little, since the entertainment I am choosing is very $$$$$.
