The Bellagio Fountains

I have finally typed up a report of my trip last year.:j
My wife likes Barry Manilow and I like airshows so we tried to combine each of those in this trip!
Here it is.. http://www.markford.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Ford/vegas2008.html
Can't wait to get back there someday!

Thanks Pebbles I've just been on and had a look and yes the tower rooms have a bath but there is no mention of a safe in either the tower or pyramid rooms.
I'm now looking at either Excalibur,MGM or NY NY.....the only thing that puts me off NY NY is the pictures of the pool area seems to be in the shade a lot.
I want 5 days south end in a hotel that gets a lot of sun

The MGM had lots of sun at the pool area last May. I had trouble finding a place for my shade bathing. Tony loved it.

NYNY pool gets plenty of sun it doesn't appear till after 10am(ish) but you'll still be in bed then if you got a decent night out!

@ Tango Bunny,

Four of us are going in May for two weeks and are looking out for decent deals on hotels.....

Please keep me updated on your search and I will do likewise.

regarding carhire300 and no one-way fees between CA and NV...make sure you ask the question (and be prepared for them to change the answers)...I made the booking yesterday and today I emailed to ask them to confirm if there was a one-way fee...I was sent a confirmation stating no one-way fee and now have another email from them saying that yes, there is a $300 one-way fee for the booking (which was apparently to be with Thrifty)...but for an extra £12 I could change the rental to be with Dollar without a one-way fee...so I've asked to do that...will see what I get through from them and if it doesn't clearly state no one-way fee I'll ask that it's added.

ferf - my ch3000 res last week was with Thrifty, and they stated on my booking confirmation form "NO ONE WAY FEE" and it also says "PAID IN FULL".

Sounded OK......had to email them today though, as Thrifty charged my credit card for what looks like the full rental amount, as well as ch3000 charging me a month or so ago.

Will let you know how it works out.
