Palazzo with family of Venetian

Looking at either of these properties. Staying in Palazzo Bella or conceige or at the Venetian Bella or Rialto. Wanting to be close to food accommodating family needs not higher end classy places. Older children so not toddlers but reasonable dining. Also where is the rock climbing wall? If staying at Palazzo is the venetian a short walk for breakfast etc. Can%26#39;t function without food and a cuppa in stomach but don%26#39;t want to be walking foreveer - heard that the Venetian has better food outlets (Cheaper) the only other issue I have is the scent and believe that the Venetian is stronger than Palazzo. My daughter has some allergies and thought may be better to stay at Palazzo altho I%26#39;m feel Venetian will suit our needs alittle better. But if the distance between the two properties isn%26#39;t that much will probably consider the Palazzo due to this fact. Any help appreciated

You%26#39;re going to have a fair degree of walking wherever you stay in Vegas. The distance between Palazzo and Venetian isn%26#39;t far (relatively speaking) and I can%26#39;t see you having any problems staying at Palazzo and eating at the Venetian. Neither place is really that great for casual dining but there are other options such as Fashion Show Mall close by.





I believe that the Canyon Ranch spas at both Venetian and Palazzo both have the climbing walls. Be aware that there%26#39;s possibly a minumum age to use the facilities so I don%26#39;t know if it will be ok for your kids. It%26#39;s not really cheap entertainment either at $40 per day though there are discounts for 3 and 5 day passes.

I would probably opt for the Venetian since there are many casual places to dine on the upper level, while both places will suite your needs the Venetian will give you more to do. I really believe this scent thing has been way over done.





The Venetian also or did have last time I was there have a food court.




Would kids be allowed at the casino level food court since it%26#39;s open to the casino and not an enclosed restaurant?




They are connected by a walkway - just a few hundred yards at most entrance to entrance. Many cheap dining options at Venetian - 2 food courts, a small one casino level (as you enter V from P it will be on your left across from the Grand Lux towards the front desk) and another on the mall level, which can be reached from the P from either level.



Both have a Grand Lux, table service, which is cheap-moderately priced (burgers, salds, etc - look at the menu online), a chain with a large and varied menu that appeals to many families.



The rocking climbing wall is in the spa fitness area of The V, one spa shared by both properties, 2 fitness areas - requires a minimum day pass.



P a little easier to exit and enter self-park if you are driving.



The distance between the 2 isn%26#39;t enough to be a major factor in your decision. P closer to Wynn and the mall. I don%26#39;t notice the scent, others do, many think it is not as strong at The P.



You can use all the pools no matter where you stay.




';Would kids be allowed at the casino level food court since it%26#39;s open to the casino and not an enclosed restaurant?';Sure children are allowed. The food court is not the casino - just as in any property with a restaurant near the casino. The food court is more enclosed than say CPK at Mirage and many others around town.




Maybe I%26#39;m in the dark on this one, but I was under the impression that Palazzo had its own Canyon Ranch Spa Club. I thought they were only sharing the one during the first couple months- like they did with the pools before Palazzo%26#39;s pool deck was done.





Can someone confirm that there is, in fact, only the one Spa facility?




mgg, I thought that too (see my previous post) but, as usual Bridgey is correct. There is just the one facility.

Apologies for any confusion..... :-)




Wow, I wonder if they expanded the existing facility. I would hope so, because one of my few complaints about Canyon Ranch was that it was a little busy. I can%26#39;t imagine what it must be like with a couple thousand extra potential customers!




Thanks for your thoughts. Another option also is to stay in a suite on the conceige level. Has anyone used the Palazzo Conceige lounge. Just thought that this would be good for breakfast and late arvo drinks. It is alittle bit more so is it worth the cost. Bear in mind that there are four of us in the suite so may be better value than only having two people. My sons 16 and can eat plenty. Also by doing conceige does this guarantee you to be on the upper levels of the hotel in Palazzo. With respect to the Venetian i think that the conceige is a fair bit away from everything so probably wouldn%26#39;t do conceige there. So in saying all this would it be better to do Palazzo conceige that way not far to have breakfast before heading out or staying in Venetian which would be closer to food court/breakfast and slightly cheaper too. That damn scent does worry me tho-hmm




We have stayed at both P and V and in both Concierge Levels as well. I personally enjoy the more intimate V Concierge Level but heard a rumor it was closing. I am not sure about this however as my last stay there was in November 2008. The P Concierge has much more to offer by way of food in the am and pm but reminds me more a a hotel bar than lounge. as for walking, I find everywhere is a trek so for us, it is a non issue beacuse of the distance to everything from everywhere. Enjoy your trip!
