Why People Love It

Reviewed by @kristenbutcallmekj: I was blown away by how huge this suite is! The sunken living room completely changes the vibe—it felt like I had my own Vegas apartment. The bathroom is massive too, perfect for relaxing after walking the Strip. Definitely my go-to for space and comfort.
Guest Who Stayed Here Said
Reality check
The check-in line can be a zoo, and navigating the multiple elevator banks (especially to the South Tower) confuses everyone at least once.
- You are claustrophobic in standard hotel rooms
- You want a 'resort' feel where you don't have to leave for 3 days
- You are traveling with a group and need space to spread out
Cleanliness & Maintenance
8
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, though some reviews note missed dust on high ledges.
- Bathroom hygiene: Bathrooms are marble and usually spotless, but older rooms may have some grout discoloration.
- Maintenance: Renovated rooms are pristine; older unrenovated rooms show scuffs on furniture and worn carpet edges.
- Linens & towels: High-quality, crisp white linens. Towels are thick and plentiful.
- Odors & scents: Lobby has a signature 'Italian' floral scent, but hallway 'sewer gas' odors are a recurring complaint.

Before you book
Good to know
- The 'South Tower' requires a trek through the property and two sets of elevators—great for privacy, bad for quick exits.
- Parking is $20/day for registered guests (self-park) and $40/day for valet.
- You can use the pools at both The Venetian and The Palazzo regardless of which tower you stay in.
What to pack
- Extremely comfortable walking shoes (you will hit 10k steps without leaving the hotel)
- Hydration packets (air is incredibly dry inside the casino/hotel bubble)
Room Genie
Best picks
- Venetian South Tower (formerly Venezia) for the newest 'loft-style' renovations and a quieter, private feel
- High floor (30+) Sphere View suites for a mesmerizing light show right out your window
Rooms to avoid
- Low floors (below 20) in the main Venetian tower facing the pool (Tao Beach noise)
- Rooms near the elevator banks (high foot traffic and dinging sounds)
Room Request Genie – copy & paste
“I would love to request a renovated suite in the South Tower (Venezia) for a quieter stay. If not available, a high floor (30+) in the main tower away from the elevator bank would be appreciated to minimize noise.”

5 things to know before you go
💡The walk from the self-parking garage to the lobby is a legitimate hike; drop bags at the bell desk first.
💡The 'sewer smell' in the hallways is a real, intermittent thing—it comes and goes with the wind/plumbing issues.
💡There is a 'Prestige Club' upgrade available that gives you a private lounge and check-in—worth it just to skip the main lobby line.
💡The minibar is weighted—if you move a bottle to put your own water in, you will be charged automatically.
💡You can access the Canyon Ranch Spa food menu without paying for a spa treatment (healthy, hidden spot).
