over the top resort

Palazzo is my current favorite - much like the Venetian but done much better. Better layout for sure, better pool deck, better casino, just better.

First class all the way. The room was super pimped out.

There is a lot that the Palazzo offers that I enjoy. The gaming and dining is right at the top of that list. I feel most comfortable at this property because the layout is simple and understandable.

Brand new and really nice. The rooms are the best thing about this hotel. The gambling is good. 40/40 club is over rated, but the people are very friendly.

My favorite place to just walk around in. Try roulette 1 quick drive-by...good luck so far.

A more casual, less maze-like property. The Venetian for those of us who don't like getting lost. Parking access is a godsend.

I stayed here during a conference a few months after it opened in 2008. Rooms were very nice. At the time their Grazie club was only good for 3 months and then you had to re-enroll. Pretty sure that has been changed by now.

While it has the nicest standard hotel rooms in Vegas, it has the overall feel of an upscale shopping plaza, not of a multi-billion dollar resort and casino in Las Vegas. It's just lacking the overall vibe and tiny little details that make Wynncore and Bellagio so special.

Despite having the best parking garage in town, everything about this place sucks ass. The lousy service, horrible games, overpriced food, faux luxury rooms, and total lack of personality make this my least favorite resort. And they have the nerve to call this place 5 star?!?

No competition.

(Nov 2009). Excellent, pure class. No wait at registration (Fri, 2pm - though lines were longer later in the day), superb attention and service throughout, a really great suite. The casino's about the nicest place to lose your money now it has been opened up. My only gripe (and already noted by others): paying for drinks whilst shovelling hundreds into VP at the bar. Cafe Society is great for lunch; Sinatra a memorable experience and meal.

Holy Shitballs! This place is awesome! Was able to stay here for $129/night and would do it again in a heartbeat. Flipping amazing!

What else is there to say after you acknowledge the fact that this is a step up from the Wynn which was the best hotel in Vegas...make that the US. You just can't get more plush and first class than Encore. Bravo once again Mr. Wynn.

Damn, this place is nice. I need to stay here and see what all the fuss is about

Has ARIA trumped Encore? *Gulp* The magic difference: Encore's room designs are impeccable.

Amazing hotel in a less than perfect location, but no problem if you plan to stay on property. Casino is light and airy, private yet open, and the right mix of high roller meets working joe. Check out the casino by the pool on a hot day for some outdoor fun, and enjoy the music and fake boobs floating by. Rooms are amazingly designed with well thought out touches and the best bed you'll ever sleep on. Bump up to the Tower Suites and feel like you're right at home with better perks and less work.

It's the Maybach of hotels.

Awesome ! THE Best place to stay on the Strip if you want to be taken care of. Can't wait to go back

This is - by far - the most beautiful resort I've ever built. It's a fact, God told me so.

OMIGD. Who thought it could get better than Wynn. Well, this is amazing, beautiful, the best of the best design, suites.The only thing is I'm not sure of the restaurants. Switch was silly, and I don't remember what I ate.Sinatra was very good, but the atmosphere was too reserved, and very expensive. (SW steakhouse looks inexpensive next to this).Saw Danny Gans again a year ago and he was terrible. The most current thing he did was George Burns. My 20 something kids wanted to walk out. Steve should watch him again, he's dated and seems his voice sounds worn out.I know The Reve has been redone, but seeing it 4 years ago, I didn't like it, and we've seen all the circ's but Ka and love all. I think Wynn is still in search of their entertainment.

Simply gorgeous!

It's like Wynn, but with a better casino and rooms. Although, it's that much further to walk to anything on the strip. Overall, my fav.

Absolutely beautiful and expensive as hell. I love the quiet.

THE finest , classiest place in Vegas...period. I got my room after a promo code and my unused resort credit was applied for $264 June6-8! I will stay here every chance I get!!!but will place elsewhere, casino was boring, (but not meant for a low roller like me) and we laugh at anyone who will stand outside in of ANY club (XS) on a Sunday at 2 am, and still try to take themselves seriously. First class all the way!!

The best of the best!

What has to be said for the Wynn's sexy little sister? It's shimmers, it shines, it finds a way to artfully blend the smooth youth of a Grey Goose and the aged elegance of a forty-five year old scotch to create what many consider one of Steve Wynn's greatest properties. Is it really the best in the city? On it's own, no. But its sumptuous room offerings, gastronomic delights, and all too popular nightclub working in conjunction with the established offerings at WLV create a super-property that even Aria/City Center will have an incredibly difficult time trying to unseat as the new standard for Las Vegas luxury. To answer that first question, by the way, apparently a lot.

Class. Beauty. Friendliness and professional staff. Dusty Room. Big LCD HDTVs. Great Value in these tight times!

Fantastic.

I stayed here back in March 2009, when I was in the process of buying my condo in town (where I now reside). If I were still living in Orange County, I'd DEFINITELY stay here when visiting! The standard suites are quite spacious at over 700 sq. ft., and they are certainly decorated tastefully and stocked with amazing luxuries like a flat-screen TV in the bathroom and a great lounge sofa in the living room. And if the accomodations aren't exciting enough, try the food! Sinatra serves classic Italian dishes done perfectly, while Society Cafe is a "gourmet diner" doing luxurious comfort food. Also try Daniel Boulud and Stratta next door at Wynn. Nightlife sizzles here with XS, Blush, and Tryst... And don't you dare miss the fabulous show at Le Reve! For a few extra bucks, the VIP Indulgence package with champagne service during the show is definitely worth it! ;-)

Amazing. Really beautiful. Great service. Comfy room.

By far my favorite hotel and casino.

I had heard the hype and wasn't actually planning to like this. I really, really liked it. The wood-inlaid blackjack tables are a nice touch. The every 4 minute drink service is a better one.

Beautiful property and rooms, but the walls of the suites are painfully thin and you will get to hear your neighbors all day and all night.

Together with Wynn Las Vegas is the best Resort on the Strip.

Beautiful Casino, worth seeing, the place to see and be seen

Beautiful place but, I think it's overrated, gorgeous and spacious rooms but the location sucks and the $25 min tables kinda suck. I guess if you have the money and you would rather spend it on a hotel room then entertainment you cant go wrong. personally I like a better price in a better location.

A bit directionless upon opening, Encore is slowly being retooled for Steve Wynn's new focus on nightlife. Lots of bars, booze, and now multiple pools for you to get your social freak on. That's nice, but the catch is that I just don't like nightlife. While you're clubbin', I'm 30 floors up trying to sleep over the UNTS UNTS UNTS sound of your party.
