Bellagio Visitor Reviews:
Ron, A., MA, USA:
We just returned from Vegas and stayed at the B for the first time. We thought
everything about the hotel was first class. We had a room (Lakefront overlooking
the water show) that was outstanding. The staff was courteous and efficient.
Went to Prime Restaurant and had one of the best meals ever. The pool is
spectacular and the hotel attracts very few kids which works for us. I wasn't
impressed with the casino (attitude, fun and service left a little to be
desired). But I am not one looking for comps, so I could gamble anywhere. If
you are renting a car, choose dollar and you can return it right at the hotel
and save yourself time at the airport. My wife loved the shopping at the hotel
and the location is perfect for the strip. We are going back in May and will
definitely stay at the Bellagio.
Dave B., Langhorne, PA, USA:
Beautiful eye appeal while walking down the strip. Loved the water show. Lobby,
service, casino were truly outstanding. My wife and I spent five outstanding
days at the Bellagio and have made reservations for another stay in December.
We will be taking my parents for a special occasion.
Julie W., WI, USA:
My husband and I stayed at the Bellagio in Sept. of 2002, and recently came
upon this website. We would like to share our views. We were pleasantly
surprised to have an early check-in when arrived, especially because of my
husband having leukemia. Our first room had a view of the pool, how
beautiful-we enjoyed that for one night. Early construction had us up
practically before dawn! We called down to the front desk and talked to the
manager on duty and they very apologetically asked if they could switch rooms
for us-we accepted it and were put on the strip side view-(the view was of
the flood-lights on the Bellagio) but we thought " oh well", later that morning
there was even louder construction noise, again we called and told them that
we would need a room that was quite so my husband could rest. To our delight
they put us in a suite on the 34th floor overlooking the fountains! We didn't
expect that kind of treatment which was most gracious-We seemed to
have been taken under the wing.
The room was plush and very clean. Our room attendants were very, very
pleasurable, no matter what we needed, it was no bother. We enjoyed the
cleanliness of the casino and actually the quietness of the casino-not just
because of people not winning-it just seemed to be less "cheesy" than all the
other casinos-the casino attendants were pleasant and "johnny on the spot" even
when we "hit" our little jackpots-We enjoyed dining at the Bellagio and had
nothing but good service and friendly wait staff-The pool was lovely and had
some shady areas, but you had to be somewhat early to get those spots. We
were a little disappointed when we found out that all the fountain pools were
not heated-the water was like ice!-those areas were the most quaint and
romantic, but not at all enjoyable (too bad)-the two large pools were
nice-at least the water was comfortable to sit or swim in!-but like most
all the pools in Vegas, it's only 3'5" feet deep-when my husband is 6'5" he
feels like he's splashing in the tub-but that's trivial(I guess). The location
is great, you need to go south on the strip, take the tram over to Monte carol
and then it's not so far. (the tram is out until 2004)-If you want to go
north near Mirage or Venetian it's a walk but not too bad. The botanical
gardens are fragrant in the spring and summer-it smells like heaven-in the fall
not as fragrant but just as lovely to look at-worth the free walk through. And
finally the fountains in the front-nothing describes
it--see it--feel it--enjoy it! Can't wait to go back!
Mr. & Mrs. Stewart, OK, USA:
We stayed at the Bellagio during our honeymoon everyone was very friendly and
helpful. We did call and ask to talk to a host before we booked our
reservations and they told us since we were not established at the
casino that they would book our rooms at the regular rate and upon
leaving they could provide us with complimentaries based on our play.
Not being the "get as much as we can for free" type of people we went ahead and
made reservations.
We were greeted at the front doors with smiles from the people who parked our
car (Richard) and from the two girls in the lobby asking if we needed
assistance. My husband plays tables and I play slots they combine both of our
play to give us the most that the can. We went to the Mirage and played there
as well, the players' card is good at all their hotels. As my husband was
playing at the tables at Bellagio a man approached him and asked "why was he
not being rated. The pit boss sent over a tall hansom gentleman and introduced
himself as a casino host (Flinny I believe). As I was playing a man walked up
to me and said "hello there Mrs. Stewart" with a big smile and I was trying to
remember where I met him. He introduced himself as a slot host (Carey). He
could see the way my mind was wondering (as you can see I remember names
well but didn't recognize him) he explained to me the way he knew who I was.
He asked if we were staying in the hotel and told me that I had already
accumulated quite a few points on my card. He also asked how my trip to
the Mirage was which just blew my mind. They only bad thing in my eyes was
that our hosts could not get dinner reservations they were sold out. So my
husband slipped the man a bill at the door and that got us
the table over looking the water show.
All and all we had a great time at the Bellagio and we only played enough to
have our room taken care of as well as the dinner at the Prime stake house.
Our bill was about two hundred dollars when we checked out. We are not big
gamblers and the complimentaries we were given is
what we had earned from our gambling.
Annapolis, MD, USA:
I booked my trip to stay at the bellagio on Cruzino.com, and I have to say I
was very happy with the result. I had no troubles at all, and the bellagio was
fantastic! It's expensive, but I would definitely recommend a trip there. The
pool is unbelievable! These guys in Las Vegas just have too much money, I
guess. I'm not a big gambler, but lounging by the pool is
something I can do. The casino was fun too.
Linda M., USA:
We stayed at the Bellagio October 8-12. The service was wonderful and the
casino was exciting. We ate at Nectar for the early special before going to
see Danny Gans. The food was great and the idea of having a theater menu is
long over due. We enjoyed having drinks at the Fontana Bar watching the
fountains. Good place to view the show!!! Our room was excellent and the
housekeeping staff met our every request. This was our second stay at the
Bellagio and we would return. As a side note, we ate at Mon Ami Gabi at
Paris and the food was terrific. I used the Opentable web site to make
reservations and we even had a table on the patio. The web site
is free of charge to make reservations.
