Rough Guide
"The public areas downstairs remain impressive, the pool complex is nicely laid out, and you get to watch the volcano from your bedroom window."

Travel + Leisure
"With an emphasis on the exotic that pervades everything from the architecture to the tasteful tropical decor, the Mirage is one of the premier hotels on the Vegas Strip." Full review
DK Eyewitness
"Conveniently located in the center of the Strip, the Mirage is famous for its tropical atrium, pretty pool with cascading waterfall, and Siegfried & Roy’s white tigers."
Time Out
"With its Polynesian village decor, lush landscaping, lagoon-like pool and waterfalls, the $650-million Mirage set the standard for modern resorts when it was opened by Steve Wynn in 1989." Full review
Star Service
"This vast resort was one of the first to define Las Vegas' 21st-century aesthetic: sexy and cinematic—in this case with an erupting volcano that officially signaled The Strip's first real hotel boom." Full review

Admittedly, rooms below the 10th floor lack memorable views, so request a unit on a high floor with a view of The Strip.
Gayot
"Transforming this desert resort into a lush tropical paradise, a rainforest dominates the atrium lobby, and a 20,000-gallon aquarium captivates guests at the front desk."
BlackBook
"The Mirage's tropical paradise theme flows throughout the property, from the front entrance's volcano to the check-in desk's giant aquarium to the pool's palm-treed cabanas."

"The Palazzo is an expansion of the impressive Venetian, but one that functions as a separate hotel, with its own massive grand lobby, own restaurants, and own rates." Full review
Concierge
"You could almost say the casino at the Palazzo is "boutique" compared to other megaresorts."
Fodor's
"Though it has struggled to keep restaurants, the hotel's an understated blend of style and sophistication." Full review
Travel + Leisure

Star Service
"The Strip's tallest hotel-casino, built to LEED Silver certification and linked to big-sister Venetian via a shopping mall." Full review
Gayot
"From the team behind The Venetian comes The Palazzo: a fifty-story, all-suite property with European-influenced, plush guest quarters varying in size from 720 up to 3,000 square feet."
BlackBook
"This sister casino to the adjacent Venetian works a luxurious theme that's part vintage Europe, part modern Beverly Hills."
