A Fantastic Hotel

Last summer, my wife and I went to Las Vegas for a week. We stayed with our friends Jimmy and
Diane for the first five days, but we stayed at a very special hotel on the Saturday and Sunday
nights at the end of our visit. We booked a suite at the Venetian Resort Hotel on the Las Vegas
strip. The Venetian is modern, luxurious, and very big! There are 7,000 rooms and suites in the
hotel, and in our suite there were three TVs - one in the bedroom, one in the living room, and one in
the bathroom!
You can find everything at the Venetian. It's a small town! There is a casino in the hotel and there
are seventeen restaurants. On our first night, we ate at the Bouchon restaurant. It was fantastic -
but very expensive! We didn't go to the casino on Saturday night because we didn't have any
money after we had dinner!
The hotel is really amazing. There is a small lake near the entrance, and on the fourth floor there
are three swimming pools and a spa. We didn't go swimming, but my wife loved the spa. On the
second floor, there is a big shopping area with canals and gondolas. We went on a gondola. I
thought I was in Venice!
There are a lot of things to do at the Venetian. You can visit Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum with
statues of famous Hollywood actors. Or you can go to the nightclub or to one of the theaters. There
are three of them! We weren't interested in visiting the wax museum and we didn't go dancing, but
on Sunday night we saw a great show at the Blue Man Theater, and we went to an art exhibition at
the hotel's art gallery.
