The Venetian Hotel Las Vegas 2004

The Venetian Hotel and Casino was very nice when we visited. When we walked through the halls to get to our room they had unusual wallpaper that started from floor to ceiling. The theme is consistent throughout the the place inside and out.



Both my wife and I appreciate art, so this was a pleasant surprise.

We really didn't know what to expect in the room, but the anticipation was building. I forget what floor we were booked on but it was pretty high. I was really impressed with the views. That's the Mirage Hotel across to the left.




Directly in front of us was the Treasure Island Hotel which was I think remodeled recently. They have the live pirate show every night. We had a direct view of it and we could here the cannons blasting at night. However, we were too high to be able to see the show.




Below is a zoomed in picture of that scene where they put on the shows where you can see cannons from the pirate ship and the village. Truly a lot of work and planning for this out door stage.



There is also an exploding volcano on the other side of the pirate ship that goes off a few times every night. This is great free entertainment easily available just walking down the strip.





And the view on the right side was of the Wynn Hotel. This was before they built the second sister hotel the Encore. They look identical in size and color. This is also before they built the Venetian's sister hotel the Pallazo which also matches.



And directly below us, they were doing some major remodeling as well.
