i have no idea as i've never stayed in any of those joints....i should qualify that as i did spend a night with two hotties in their room....at the V..or is that two V'S?

 

Bellagio is nice, but the constant parade to check out the lobby and conservatory is just too much. The strollers and such just makes it harder to get around. When I'm shelling out that kind of money I don't want to deal with that.

 

I picked the Wynn but now I am thinking I should have went with Aria. Back in the day the Wynn was way above everything else, if we are going off of right now, I would say Aria takes it.

 

I'm not surprised at all by the Wynn and Aria success in this poll. I am quite surprised that there isn't more support for Venetian/ Palazzo. I'm not a fan of either property, but I assumed that they would be well represented in a luxury poll.

Wynn is an amazing property. They didn't cut corners. The Steve just does it right..... He always has.

The Venetian has too much painted foam construction, which although semi realistic looking, is uber tacky for a luxury resort.

 

Wynn, always Wynn.

 

Definitely the Wynn.

 

The Steve! 52.3% of the vote with his newest properties, the Wynn and Encore.

Had this poll been around in 2000, I'm guessing that Bellagio, another Wynn creation, would have dominated. Ditto for Mirage before that.

 

Love the layout of the Mirage, never have to worry about elevators in the villas, casino is close to the entrance and easy access to hl and sportsbook. Also love the fact you can get off the strip in 2 minutes going out the back exit from the villas. The villas are so quiet and serene, like a different world. I like the Mirage crowd better, kess oretentious and more fun that the B crowd.

 

Agree with you on all points on Mirage (except villas - no experience there - but I'm never in the room anyway). I enjoy the crews a ton more. Best damn CW is about 75 years old and seriously hooks you up with good drinks when at the tables. Plenty of fun personalities with the crews there. I've been in all the others, gambled in all of them, but Mirage keeps me coming back for some reason and this is after years of Bellagio being home base with far less gambling.

I guess when everyone knows my name and even the managers and VP have come to talk to me and thank me for the feedback (they actually read those surveys) and ask me if I need anything to let them know it just makes it more my style.

B, thin the damn herd. Gambling, way too many people from out of the country who love to smoke and have zero courtesy for others around them shoving them around yelling in your ears. Crews are miserable and unhappy as hell. Some are good, just can tell they are sick of the people. I actually love the place in the morning.

Aria, great place, great people just doesn't resonate with me. They keep asking me to come back but it just seems too corporate.

V/P too many conventioneers.

Mandalay Bay ugh see V/P.

MGM love it (casino) except the party atmosphere. I've found naked hookers in the hall been woke up by security because they thought my room was partying and just had bad experiences there. Rooms always having things broken. One suite had a condom, dirty clothes and everything else all over the room they didn't even make an effort to clean it. Not a mansion person, and I'm sure thats a whole different world just the regular place is the pits to me when the parties get started.

 

My view of the ARIA is that it's an excellent property with great rooms (even if the in-room technology is overengineered) and a shitty and uncaring staff. I say this as someone who has literally spent more than $1M there (between personal and business.)

I usually default to Bellagio because even though I'm not in love with the rooms (particularly the design), the staff is excellent from cage to hosts to pit bosses. And I like their casino.

I know I need to give Wynn a shot. Stayed at Encore once years ago, but it was before I had enough $$ to get anyone's attention.
