Bellagio is exquisite, as always. It is my No. 2 on the strip (Wynn is No.1) and easily tops the other competition by providing top notch service, gorgeous romantic scenery and excellent gaming space. It attracts a more mature and "sanitary" crowd so you avoid the "other" side of Vegas, LOL. The dealers are among the BEST you will find (a few bad eggs, but that's life). The restaurants are amazing, with the exception of Noodles, which is disgusting. Be sure to get a lake-view room...it's well worth the extra. The rooms are perfectly appointed with whirlpool tubs and beautiful furniture. Plenty of space for your things and excellent large window(s). Play here often and soon you will never have to pay for your room again...which makes this one of the very best places to stay in Las Vegas.

What a fabulous hotel! Recently spent a week at the Bellagio early August and had a superb time. I called a few days prior to request a non smoking room it was noted on my booking but I was advised that the room will be allocated upon check in. So arriving on a Sunday afternoon you can guess it was very busy and it probably took around 25 minutes to check in.
We didnt have much choice of non smoking rooms apart from a view over the car park or a lake view for $50 plus tax per night or a smoking room over looking the pool area. We also had the option of checking back later to see if any other rooms had became available. We decided to treat ourselves to the lake view and we were not disappointed it was worth every penny.
The 18th floor is a non smoking floor and we had room 18070 it was spacious, clean with a lovely bathroom. It also had an i pod docking station, king sized bed which was very comfortable, iron and ironing board plus the usual mini bar, ice bucket etc. Comfy chairs to watch the fountains (amazing) channel 22 to listen to the music and much more relaxing than trying to jostle for a space outside in the August heat.
We had an excellent breakfast at Cafe Bellagio it cost around $40 for 2 omlettes, toast, tea and coffee, the portion's are huge so you can easily share. We also tried the breakfast buffet which was slightly cheaper around $35 for two and again very good with lots of choice although it is the first time I have stayed in a hotel that has various pizza's on offer for breakfast. We never had to que so I guess we were very lucky or very early.
We also had an evening meal at Olives, bottled water 2 drinks and 2 main meals cost around $100 plus tip my husband really enjoyed his chicken however I didn't have much choice for a vegetarian dish apart from pizza or pasta so it wasn't as enjoyable for myself. (For any vegetarians reading I found the best meal choice was at the Cheesecake Factory located in the forum shops at Caesars Palace)
We are not big gamblers but we still signed up for the players card in the casino plus if you gave your email address you got $10 dollars free play for the slot machine's, you can also use the card in the other MGM group hotels along the strip to collect players points.
Overall we loved the Bellagio and would definately stay again. Yes it is a very busy hotel, with nearly 4000 rooms it isn't going to be quiet around the public areas, however we never experienced any noise from the room, plus other hotels we looked at were just as busy. The location and the charm of the hotel itself you can't go wrong staying here.

After having had to change a tire in Death Valley and then spend an hour at the dollar car rental getting a new car, it's fair to say that we were very much looking forward to getting to our room and relaxing!

We drove up to front and quickly handed over our keys to the valet and our bags to the bellman to hasten our arrival at our room. Unfortunately check-in seemed to take ages despite only a few people ahead of us in line. Why it takes this long, when everyone has already given all their details on booking I don't know - even with us not asking for any upgrades etc and simply wanting the room we booked it took a full 15mins for us! (This long wait was repeated the next day when i went to pick up a gift left with the concierge)

However once we (finally) got to our room (Lake view deluxe), all was forgotten as the views across the lake and over to the Paris Eiffel tower were amazing - pure Vegas! The room itself was great as well with special mention to the huge bathroom with double bath and huge shower. Amazing value for such a great room (we paid $150 a night). We rang for our bags to be brought up and almost instantly there was a knock on the door - remarking that this was a bit fast I opened the door to find some champagne had been sent up to us by some friends also in Vegas at that time - what a perfect (and much needed) present! Our bags came up shortly after and we wree left to enjoy our bottle of champagne and a long hot bath before heading down for some food and coktails (and a little gambling!)

Great rooms at a great price, but service is incredibly slow

Hotel is up with the best of them (although the Venetian is much better)... We booked and paid for a lake view room but when we arrived at 7:30pm we were told that none were available. Apparently the Bellagio will not confirm a room (even if you have pre-paid for it). So if you want a specific request get there VERY early or book into a better hotel.

We were moved the second night, but only after a lot of hassle and we had to do all the leg work. The guest service was a real let down for such a reputable hotel.
