The Venetian Resort Las Vegas

3355 S Las Vegas Blvd · Las Vegas, NV

Why you should go…

Opened in 1999 on the site of the old Sands Hotel, The Venetian rebuilds Venice on the Strip, with a 315-foot replica of St Mark's Campanile and a Rialto Bridge. Gondolas carry you along canals both outside and inside, by the Grand Canal Shoppes. Rooms are suites with sunken living rooms, and the resort also takes in The Palazzo tower, two theaters, a casino, Madame Tussauds and the Canyon Ranch spa.

Good to know

General stay guidance

Habits that pay off across this whole category, not rules for this one venue. Always check the official site for the specifics.

  • Rates swing with the calendar

    Midweek nights and shoulder-season dates are usually the kindest on price.

  • Read what is included

    Parking, resort fees, and breakfast are the three extras that most often land on the final bill.

  • Ask at booking, not at the desk

    Early check-in, late checkout, and room preferences go further when you request them in advance.

  • On a short trip, location wins

    What you can reach on foot from the door matters more than the amenities list.
