Hotel Descriptions Venetian

Venetian
Room 36116
Smoking: Yes (room didn't smell like it at all, so I didn't)
King Size Rialto Suite(?) (not a regular suite or room at the V)
Negative Side: The north view of the strip is not much to brag about, but at the V it's probably one of the better views. Strange air vents on the window sill were covered with scotch tape, and gusts of wind sounded like thunder (and no, I'm not on medication). Servi bar had sensors in it, so that even if you moved the contents, you'd get charged! No big screen or la-z boy in sight! Positive Side: The elevators were quick and efficient. The room was massive, with it's own bar with TWO TVs above it. Incredible bathroom, with his/her vanities, Jacuzzi tub and separate shower and a boat load of toiletries/amenities (including slippers and robes). Comfy bed with fluffy pillows. Great furnishings. Safe in room, along with full sized ironing board and iron! North view of strip afforded views of Desert Inn and a great view of Treasure Island and the pirate battle. Index

Venetian Room 25137

king size/smoking room (25137). This room was miles from the elevator and had a good view of many parking lots and the airport off in the distance. Even though the rooms are nice (for those of you who haven't read a report on the V rooms - they're huge with a separate living room area, 2-27" televisions {living and bedroom area}, separate tub and shower with enclosed toilet area, double sinks, vanity with make-up mirror, blow drier, in room safe, iron, etc.) I still like Paris better. Index

Venetian Room 31103

We were in room 31103, facing southwest with a view of the Venetian parking garage and Harrah's tower. In the distance you could see Bellagio (but not the fountains), the Eiffel tower, the Flamingo pool area, and the MGM theme park in the distance. If you could break the window and stick your head out you'd be able to see the Mirage volcano. Index

Venetian Room: 17225
Smoking: Yes
Recommend: Yes
Very Large room with King bed, Huge bathroom with soaking tub, Beautiful granite, marble, very elegant carpeting and marble floors, nice makeup table and mirror in the bathroom. Pool and Treasure Island Pirate battle, and Downtown in the distance...Great view, although we could hear the live band at the pool in our room, no big deal though! Very Very nice room, tasteful decor, had printer/fax in room, the TV had few channels, Bathroom was not very bright. Colors were golds, yellows and navy blue. Really enjoyed our stay at the Venetian Index

Venetian Room: 27th floor
Day: Wednesday
Rate: 175.00/nt
Booked the room one day in advance at Travelocity.com
Amenities: Only there for one night, so didn't get to explore too much, but the Grand Lux cafe (24 hr cafe) was an excellent value, the sandwiches are HUGE for about 9 bucks. Great shopping, gorgeous canal atmosphere View: Had view of pools (boring) and Treasure Island, impressive. Great customer service, the staff was incredibly friendly, especially at check-in. Received assorted comps, the check-in boy said it was because we were only there for one night, from Florida. Of course, it was election night, so we were teased mercilessly about the Palm Beach county screw up! Index

Venetian Room 33-234 posted 10/15/01

When we got to the Venetian, Jay and Jolene had just finished breakfast. They invited us up to the room while they got their stuff together. They were staying in room 33-234 which afforded them a Southeast view looking over the Maxim hotel and one of the runways at McCarran. We’ve never stayed in one of the “regular” rooms at the Venetian, since we lucked into an upgrade last time we were there. Maybe it’s my imagination but the rooms don’t seem quite as large as the regular rooms at the Rio. And, like the Rio, the rooms really aren’t suites by definition, although you have to go down two steps into the “living area”. The rooms are very nicely appointed with high quality furnishings and the entire room has a very warm feeling to it. The bathroom all decked out in marble is definitely an upgrade from the Rio, and is almost nicer than most suites at upscale hotels in any other city. Jay really appreciated the data port, and the Venetian provided a printer for him as well. I chided him for doing work on his vacation, but I guess you can’t lose that competitive edge. Index

Venetian Room 15-321 posted 10/15/01

Every door says "Suite" on it, to make sure you know you're in a suite. The sign on my door said "Suite 15-321", which is a smoking room, which although I don't smoke, I selected in case I decided to start smoking.

It really is NOT a suite, it's just an extra big room that looks like two rooms. Like the Rio's basic suites. There's the bed area like any other hotel, with a dresser, TV, night tables; then two steps down is a "living room area" with a small couch, some chairs, a table, and another dresser with ANOTHER TV. I guess a lot of people come to Las Vegas to watch TV... why else would there be TWO of them in the room? Next to the TV is the tricky refrigerator and drawer with snacks. A standard size bag of M&Ms is $3. A can of Heineken is $4.50. But it shows up on your bill as $5.20. Must be the tax and and extra service charge. Index

Venetian Room 11-337 posted 4/6/02

Agency: DIRECTLY THROUGH THE VENETIAN
Amenities: Two queen beds with sleeper sofa in the "living room". Sleeper sofa was surprisingly comfortable for sleeping. Shampoo, lotion, conditioner, two bathrobes in bathroom. Large bathroom with tub, separate shower, 2 sinks and a vanity with lighted make-up mirror and blow dryer. Separate toilet room.
View: View of rooftop of Venetian Shops. In the distance a golf course and the Las Vegas Hilton. Not the greatest view at all.
Other: Room was the last one from the elevator at the end of hall. After walking all over Vegas, seemed like miles to the room only to have to go all the way back to get ice. Loved the room but would NOT recommend the location. Index

Venetian Room: 29130 posted 11/30/02
Dates: 11/26-29
Rate: $143
Agency: Direct with hotel
Amenities: I stayed at the Venetian for the first time this week. I've stayed at all the other top LV hotels (Bellagio numerous times, Four Seasons, Mirage, Mandalay Bay, etc) and this is my take on Venetian.
First the negatives:
1) Water pressure in the shower was poorer than any hotel I can remember staying in, including economy class hotels (high rise hotels have varying water pressures from one floor to the next, and there are pressure pumps which raise the pressure every 8-10 floors or so. We were on 29th floor, so maybe this is just a bad floor). 2) The shower had black mildew in all the grout on the floor, which I hate. 3) Lots of stains on carpet/furniture, and black marks on most of the walls/doors. Several frayed edges on couch corners etc. Just gave the room a cheap, worn look and feel. 4) Mattress was very mediocre quality. Like I'd expect in, say, a Radisson or airport Hilton.
5) Sheets were pretty cheap quality. 6) Pillows were the WORST!! I mean $2.00 quality all foam postage stamp size pillows. All the same style and size. 7) The furniture was decent but not expensive. More on a par with that at Paris and Mirage than Bellagio. 8) Carpet was pretty worn and dirty looking. Definitely will need replacing soon. 9) No turn down service. 10) Really substandard housekeeping. Shreds of paper and junk on the floor, and long hairs in the sink, when we checked in. No one cleaned the paper from the floor the whole 3 days we were there! Which means no one vacuumed. Unacceptable.

The positives: 1) Largest standard size rooms in LV at 650 sq ft. 2) Nice marble bathrooms with separate tub and shower. Separate small WC room. 3) 2 full size TV's in room, full size sofa, 2 lounge chairs, table and 3 standard chairs around table, all located in 'living area' (the 'sunken living room' which is a foot below the 'bedroom'). 4) Convenient access to the shops and food in the hotel retail area. 5) Pretty good location on the strip, across from Mirage and Treasure Island, only a block from Fashion Show Mall. Index

Venetian Room: 30111 posted 3/11/03

I made some small talk with the guy at check in. He was nice. the line was short since it was pretty late for a check in. I asked about a late check out but he said that they wouldn't be able to do that but I should call tomorrow.

But the best part? The guy upgraded my room! I had a normal suite but he upgraded me to a piazza suite! 3 levels higher than the room I got. I was in room 30-111. There was no view but the room was great. 3 TV sets, big living room, dining room, Jacuzzi, marble entry, 2 bathrooms, etc.

He did the upgrade without the $20 trick or me even asking him. I am not a member of anything at the Venetian and I do not gamble very much. Index

Venetian Room: 23-102 posted 4/9/03
Day:             Thursday Friday Saturday
Dates:           3/27-3/30
Rate:            $270.00
Recommend:       Yes
Agency: Convention Booked
Amenities: Upon asking, I was upgraded to the Rialto Suite. The Suite looks just like the picture on the website. It was 1100 sq feet, 2 tvs, huge bath, desk with fax machine, dining table, and great view.
View: The room overlooks the pool area and was not so high that you could not enjoy the pool view. There was also a great view of Treasure Island (you could see the pirate ship battle at night) and the Stratosphere in the distance. This room will be able to see Steve Wynn's new hotel, Le Reve, when it is finished as construction is still under way.
Other: The room was just off the elevator banks so it was less than 20 steps to the door from the elevators. The room was beyond my expectations - no negatives. Index

Day:             Sunday
Dates:           5/25
Rate:            $99
Recommend:       Yes
Agency: Priceline
Amenities: 1,456 sq. ft. Guest rest room with marble sink. Double door entrance and all Italian marble entranceway Living room with 36" television, Sofas and couches everywhere. Formal dining area and complete wet bar. Bathroom with Jacuzzi tub and separate shower, marble double sinks and separate toilet. King canopy bed with TV, chaise lounge, closet and makeup mirror with chair. View: Venetian pool down, Treasure Island hotel and it's Pirate battle lagoon. Other: I booked this hotel through Priceline and did not expect any upgrades. I was very lucky that receptionist was very polite and professional who made a quick phone call to get us an upgrade to Piazza suite for no extra charge. It was a gorgeous room we ever stayed in.

Venetian Room: 9338 posted 6/16/03
Room:            9338
Day:             Sunday Thursday Friday Saturday
Dates:           Memorial Day weekend
Rate:            $189
Agency: Directly through the hotel
Amenities:
View: Other: Room was at the end of the hall directly across from the construction. We asked to move but were told not a large selection of rooms due to holiday weekend. Construction noise started promptly at 6AM Friday and Saturday but none on Sunday or Monday. Safe didn't work upon check-in but was fixed the next day. Hot water never worked on left-hand side of two bathroom sinks. No maid service Friday and hallway was always cluttered with room service trays and other garbage people had set outside of room (ours included). Asked for mini-fridge to store medication but never got one, however, was able to store it on top of shorter cans of soda without setting off alarm. Developed bumpy rash on arms and legs from either sheets or detergent that took almost a week to go away upon return home. On the good side, the room was huge (we greatly appreciated the extra space in the living room area) very quiet and the beds were extremely comfortable. Non-smoking room requested with no smoke odor detected at all. Asked for coffee pot and was given one immediately with ample supply of coffee, sugar creamer etc. Most of the hotel staff was very friendly (front desk, dealers, valet parking, and restaurant help) but housekeeping was inefficient and seemed to have an "attitude" even with generous tip the second day. Probably will never stay there again due to cost. Have stayed at TI for 1/3 the cost with better treatment and comparable amenities except for room size. Index

Venetian Room: 22110 posted 12/3/03

Day: Sunday Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday
Dates:           11/23 to 11/27/2003
Rate:            $80.00
Recommend:       Yes
Agency: Priceline
Amenities: Room had a North Strip View, and overlooked pools. Could see the TI Pirate Battle, Riviera, Sahara, Circus Circus, and other points North. Bathroom is large, has an all glass shower (nice for the view), and a separate soaking tub. Toilet is in a small room off the shower room, and has a phone right next to the throne. Counter in bathroom has his and hers sinks. Room had a king bed, with TV near bed, and a separate TV in the sunken living room, which also had a love seat hide-a-bed, and two stuffed chairs, and a table with two chairs. We also had a desk with a fax machine. Bathroom goodies included shampoo, soap, conditioner, lotion, shower cap, sewing kit, and "vanity kit"--apparently an assortment of q-tips and emery boards. There are also two terry cloth robes in the closet. Very nice room. We got a bottle of Champagne our first night courtesy of the hotel, apparently for being first-time to Vegas types. The girlfriend loved the place. I liked the uniforms the cocktail waitresses wore. Index

Venetian Room: 22201 posted 5/23/04

I asked for a Strip view room and got 22201, with a fine view from the Mirage to TI, the north Strip and Wynn. It also overlooked the pool area. The room was right by the elevators. As I had read at several places including cheapovegas that these were to be the nicest rooms in LV, I wasn´t too pleased with what I got: the room was large with a separate sitting area, but the decor didn´t appeal to me. These muted colours supposed to convey italian elegance rather seemed faded, as the carpet seemed already worn. I missed the little touches which makes staying at a really extraordinary hotel such a nice experience . Take the bathroom, for example: there was a soaking tub and a shower, but there was absolutely nothing special about i (if you don´t count the hairs in the tub and the fact I had to fix the drain which would´t close all the way before using it). This didn´t ruin my stay or anything, but I had certainly liked Bellagio and even Mandalay Bay (where to have been fair I had an upgraded room and can´t really compare) a lot better. There were two tvs in the main room. Funnily enough, only one of them got HBO.Index

Venetian Room: 34171 posted 11/5/04

Sunday night we wanted some nice space to hold our poker tournament so
we had a room at the Venetian. We were able to get the Prima Suite
for a prepaid rate of $375 plus tax. I've been told by a couple of
people that it was a steal at that price so we took it. The room
(34-171) was indeed very impressive. A marble entryway with a powder
room off the entrance had a sliding door, which I thought was
interesting. Open living room with two chairs, sofa, dining table
with four chairs, coffee table and armoire with 32" TV.

To the right was a full wet bar with two stools. The bar was not
stocked with much glassware though, only a couple of wine glasses and
a corkscrew/bottle opener. I guess if you're entertaining a big crowd
they want you to hire a bartender. Behind the bar up in a wall cubby
were two 20"(?) TVs. The problem was this, although there were four
late games on TV that afternoon, only two were being carried by LV
stations so even though we had three TVs in that room we could only
watch two games. Yes, I know, go down to the sports book dummy.
Well, if I'm dropping that much cash for that nice a room this is the
one time I really do want to spend time in the room.

The bedroom had a king bed with a decorative drape near the head of
the bed. It too had an armoire with 32" TV. The bathroom was also
very nice. There was a dressing area with table and mirror outside
the bathroom. Inside were two full sinks on separate sides so two
people could do their prep work without bumping into each other. The
tub was large and jetted and the shower was huge with a bench, two
shower heads and two water controls. That answered the age old
question of what to do when shaving in the shower. One side of your
body usually gets cold, but not in this place. The toilet room had a
real door, and a phone, although I refuse to talk to anyone while on
the throne or talk to anyone while they're on the can. The view was
to the south and east so we could see many hotels on the south strip
PLUS we could watch the planes take off and land. Very nice.

Was it worth $409 (incl tax)? Well, considering we crammed six guys
into it I guess so. I wouldn't normally pay that much but I was glad
we did it for our big event. Index

Venetian Room: 20-119 posted 7/18/05

The room, as expected, was great. Larger than most hotel rooms with a separate bed and living area and a large bathroom. High speed internet access was $9.95/day. I was a little
surprised that there was no microwave or refrigerator in the room. The view on that side of the building isn't so great as it looks across at the other tower with almost no view of the strip or the pool. For me that's not a big issue but I know it is for others. Pictures of the room are on their web site at www.venetian.com and are accurate. I would definitely stay
there again, especially at those rates. Very friendly staff, good restaurants, good location, good pool area. Index

Venetian Room: 24-119 posted 3/8/06

On Friday, March 3, after my four hour drive to Las Venice, I dropped my car
off at valet parking/hotel check-in at 1:00 PM and went straight to VIP
services. My host had arranged a room on the 24th floor which was ready and
waiting. I picked up my keys then quickly detoured to the casino. By the
time I entered my room, it was about 5:30 PM. My host had sent up a
terrific fruit bowl:

http://shorterlink.com/?NG5DAR

Since it opened in 1999, I've stayed at The Venetian roughly two dozen times
and have never been disappointed with the rooms or the service. This visit
was no exception. I called to have my bags and a refrigerator brought up
and both were delivered within 15 minutes. My king size bed, non-smoking
room had a wonderful strip view of TI and The Mirage and The Venetian's
swimming pools. There were no spots on the living room furniture, carpet or
bedspread--everything was immaculate and in great shape. The phones, lights
and televisions were all in perfect working order. The mattresses were
upgraded over the past couple of years and are now extremely comfortable.
They recently added lightweight down comforters and have always used high
thread count sheets. The toiletries were the typical decent quality soap,
shampoo, conditioner, lotion and bath gel plus shower cap, sewing kit, shoe
horn and several small packets that each contained swabs, cotton balls and a
small nail file. Added this trip were two pairs of complimentary slippers.

One minor but slightly amusing change was with wakeup calls. In the past
when I requested a wakeup call, an automated system would ring the phone.
Knowing this, I would never say anything when I picked up the phone. This
trip, when my first wakeup call came, I picked up the phone and didn't say a
word. After a number of seconds, I heard someone say, "Hello. Hello??"
Seems that they now have a real person call who wishes you well, tells you
the time, the temperature and the expected weather for the day. Index

Venetian Bella Suite Room: 20-106 posted 8/13/06

Room Comped (7/27/06 to 7/30/06)

queen canopy-draped beds. Room was located only three rooms from the end of
the hall that is closest to the elevator bank.   Fabulous view of the pools,
TI, lovely new Venetian construction and The Wynn. Long marble entry area.
Bathroom with marble everywhere, compartmentalized commode, dual sinks,
soaking tub, separate shower and vanity table with stool. Sunken living
room area with dining table and three chairs, writing desk and chair,
full-size sofa sleeper, coffee table, end table and two occasional chairs.
Entertainment center with mini-bar and 27" tube style television. Bedroom
area with a REAL closet and a night stand.   Armoire with second 27" tube
style television, in-room safe and three large drawers.   Amenities included
bath robes, two pairs of complimentary slippers, shoe horn, deluxe sewing
kit, iron and ironing board, hair dryer, clock radio/CD player, lighted
portable makeup mirror, fax/printer/copier, three dual-line phones and
separate modem line. Although many of the rooms at The Venetian offer high
speed Internet connections, this one did not. Toiletries consisted of soap,
shampoo, conditioner, lotion, shower gel, shower cap and several vanity kits
that each contained swabs, cotton balls and nail file.

When I checked in, VIP services arranged for my luggage to be brought to the
room. My bags were delivered within three minutes of my arrival to the
room. I called and requested the use of additional hangers and a
refrigerator. They were delivered within ten minutes. The level of service
provided by The Aladdin really made me appreciate the top-notch service
provided by The Venetian.

Mark arrived and about five minutes later, there was a knock on the door.
My host sent up the usual but always much appreciated fruit bowl:
