When we began researching a hotel to stay in for the Honeymoon part of our Vegas trip we initially thought we would stay at THEhotel at Mandalay Bay. But however, after lots and lots of research and time spent reading the Trip Advisor Las Vegas message board we decided to stay at The Venetian. We chose it for several reasons. Reason #1. We liked the romantic ambience of the whole hotel. Reason #2: We liked how even the lowest room had a "suite-like" feel to it since it had a sitting area. AND Reason #3: We liked that it had a more center strip location than Mandalay Bay so we would be within walking distance of more attractions.
