Caesars Palace Hotel Las Vegas – Roman Tower Room Review

Friday, April 8th, 2011 at 5:41 am

For our last few days in Vegas we decided to stay at Caesars Palace. We had stayed here before on a previous visit but at that time we were given an upgraded room in the Forum Tower. This time, we were offered an upgrade for $50.00 but we declined and so we had a standard room in the Roman Tower. Check-in On check-in the guy checking us in tried to get us to upgrade to a better room for an extra $50 a night but since we had the upgraded room before and as we weren’t really all that impressed we declined…

Make the Most of Your Time in Las Vegas – Travel on the Deuce and the RTC

While we were in Las Vegas recently we found that walking the Strip can be a somewhat tiring experience. Everything looks so close when you look up the Strip but as you walk along you find that there is quite some distance between casinos. And if you deviate off the main road into a Casino well it may take you quite some time to find your way out again plus it will definately add some considerable distance to your stroll. Fortunately, the two buses that service the strip and downtown are inexpensive to use and will help you to enjoy more of the…

Paris Hotel Las Vegas Review

After spending 6 nights at the Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas, we moved up the Strip to the Paris hotel for 10 nights. It’s a bit of a hike up the strip, especially with luggage, and we arrive at the Paris ahead of check in time so it’s a pleasant surprise to find that our room is ready. We are in room 1902 which overlooks the carpark and out to the airport. The last time I stayed here I had a room overlooking the Bellagio and the fountain. And as fabulous as the fountain is I have to admit to being…

We are on holiday in Las Vegas for a few weeks and after having seen Cher and Human Nature, we were wondering who to see next. There are so many great shows in Las Vegas so making that decision is not that easy. As we are staying at the Venetian we finally decided to go and see Rita Rudner. I have seen her on tv a number of times and always found her to be entertaining and funny. The seating in this theatre is in rows which is more like I am used to when I go to the theatre. Unlike…

As we are here for 18 days we decided to take in a few shows and after reading many reviews we found that Human Nature – The Ultimate Celebration of the Motown Sound” is rated the #1 singing show in Vegas. This show is presented by the legendary Smokey Robinson. For anyone who is not familiar with Human Nature, the group comprises 4 young men from Australia who first got together while they were still at school in Sydney as “The 4 Trax”, and the members of the group are brothers Andrew and Michael Tierney, Toby Allen and Phil Burton….

Cher in Concert at Caesars Palace, Las Vegas – Review

We flew over from Australia to see Cher in concert as we are both avid Cher fans. We had read the reviews prior to going to the concert which gave us some idea of what to expect. So I have decided to write this review from both the perspective of a diehard fan and also from the point of view of someone who is not necessarily a fan. Our seats are up in the gods and we have a great view of the stage. We are sitting next to a sorghum farmer from Chicago, and we chat away about the…

WOW, what can I say but WOW….The Venetian in Las Vegas is one beautiful hotel. We stayed there last week and have to say that it is one of the best hotels we have stayed in so far. We actually got a great deal on this hotel through Expedia.com so we ended up staying there for 6 nights in total in a beautiful Bella Suite. Our first impression of this hotel when we checked in was OMG. The reception area is amazing with its frescoed ceilings, marble fountain, sparkling chandeliers and the accordion player leaning back against the fountain as he entertains…

It’s been a while since we went overseas. The last time I went was in 2009 with my husband and we went to Las Vegas, the Grand Canyon and San Francisco. We had intended on going to Portland to see the Spruce Goose, but time didn’t permit. This time I am going with my best friend and business partner Paula and we are going to spend all of our time in Vegas. Paula hasn’t been overseas since March 2008 when we attended the Affiliate Summit conference so she is really eager to get back there. The last time Paula and…
