Complete with a 120,000-square-foot casino, 17 restaurants, the 63,000-foot Canyon Ranch SpaClub and more than 50 shops, the Venetian oozes luxury on all levels.

Visiting Reno:
Four of Reno's luxurious hotel resorts are located on North Virginia Street in the heart of the downtown action. Skywalks connect the Eldorado Hotel Casino, Silver Legacy Resort Casino, and Circus Circus Hotel & Casino-Reno creating a complex that encompasses six city blocks.

Las Vegas Attractions

Nevada at a Glance

Las Vegas at a Glance:
Taxis are the most convenient way to get around in Vegas. You'll be able to easily find one, as they are always in front of hotels. The Strip bus (Citizens Area Transit, or CAT) costs $1.50 and links the Strip and the downtown with stops near major hotels.

Reno at a Glance:
Reno is a year-round entertainment and gambling resort that advertises itself as The Biggest Little Town on Earth. Reno is also popular with people getting married, and a well-known residence for folks seeking rapid divorces. However, if you are ski slope bound, plan your trip from late November through March.

Articles About Las Vegas, Nevada

A Must-See Guide for Vegas Newcomers: by Jim Rufus.
Like any major city, you won't be able to tackle everything there is to do in one visit, but here are a few suggestions to make you feel like you've tried.

A Taste of Las Vegas: by Linda Anderson.
Visitors to Las Vegas enjoy grand hotels and casinos, great shopping and fabulous restaurants. Dining in Las Vegas has become one of city's main attractions and the all-you-can-eat buffets are a popular choice for both visitors and locals.

Choosing Slot Machines: by Alan Krigman.
Many folks who try their luck at casinos during vacations, conventions, or even junkets head directly for the slot machines. They're much less intimidating than table games for beginners, offer lots of playing time and plenty of excitement for relatively modest bankrolls, are available in many configurations, and promise jackpots that can change a person's lifestyle. But, how do you decide which machine to play?

Vegas Restaurants: All the Rage: by Leon Schwarzbaum.
They're still standing in line for the $3.99 breakfast buffets and the $6.99 sirloin steak dinners in Las Vegas, but with the advent of the newest five-star hotel casinos, haute cuisine (at haute prices) has become an attraction. In a town where fine dining once consisted of a huge shrimp cocktail, a 24-ounce steak, a salad and pie a la mode, world famous chefs create meals for sophisticated diners drawn by the luxury of the new and refurbished resorts.

Not Only High-Rollers in Las Vegas: by Leon Schwarzbaum.
For much less than a vacation at a Disney resort, you (and your family) can delight in free (or almost free) shows, rides and visual enchantment.
