Vegas Without Gambling Can Be Fun!
What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you think of Las Vegas? Maybe you thoughts are of bright lights, glittery showgirls, and casinos to spend your money in, right? Well, Las Vegas has so much more to offer than that. You can visit this vibrant city and have a fabulous trip without ever putting a dime in a slot machine or money on the table.
Vegas has gone through many transformations throughout the years. In the glitzy days of the 50′s and 60′s it was a place for Hollywood stars such as Frank Sinatra and his Rat Pack to hang out and be seen. The fancy hotels like The Sands and Stardust were hot spots for the rich and famous. But as the years went on, these places started to loose there appeal. Through the years, most of these hotels were torn down to make way for the mega hotels of the future.
Enter the Las Vegas of the late 20th century and a major shift of focus. The hotels and resorts began to try to appeal to families. Roller coasters and other thrill rides were a part of many of the newer hotels and many older ones added features such as indoor amusement parks. These new additions were fun and flashy and perhaps they attracted families for a while, but soon the focus changed again.

The Aria Opened in Mid December
Allow me to start by saying I don’t have any money interest nor do I’m employed for the Aria in any fashion. I am simply a person that was offered a comp to go to visit. What a dazzling place. The Aria opened in mid December of 2009 and has 61 stories with four thousand rooms and is found in Town Center, a 67 acre town within a town on the strip.
The Aria has 18 cafes, countless clubs and lounges, a showroom theater that will seat as many as 1850 guests, shopping that’s unimaginable, a banking center, state of the art fitness center, salon, some of the most pretty waterfalls, and four pools. It has it’s own tram that connects to Bellagio and the Monte Carlo. The Aria has art from top flight artists from across the world. The difference with this art in comparison to other casinos on the strip is most other casinos ‘ art collections are contained to 1 or 2 dedicated rooms but the top class art is all around in the Aria for all guests to enjoy. The Aria is a part of the “new world” Town Center, a big undertaking on the Vegas strip.
There are countless other buildings inside Town Center that offer facilities to all who visit or live inside Town Center, this is only one building. This review will target the hotel room but I needed to set a backdrop to this review. When we entered the hotel, we didn’t know what should be expected but we probably did have some notion of what should ideally be there since we’ve been going to the Las Vegas strip for a number of years and have stayed at the majority of the great casinos. We entered The Aria. It was great and full of marble and stone with new-age decor. New-age simplicity appeared to be the dominant theme of the hotel-casino. We received our key to the room on the 37th floor and when we opened the door all we probably did was giggle! The door opened, the curtains instantly started to open to display a superb view of the strip and mountains, the Television came on to a relaxation channel, the heat turned on to get to the ideal comfortable area, and the lights turned on. Now you have got to remember, this was done by opening the door. Everything in the room might be controlled by the radio control or by the control next to the bed that shown on the flat screen Television . You didn’t have to get out of bed to do anything except shower and go to the toilet and I was trying to find how they doubtless accomplished that – just teasing! Again, the room was dressed in new-age simplicity with the dimensions of the room comfortable for 2 folks. The toilet was attractive with a tub set to one side of the shower in the same enclosure. The room was cleaned everyday but only if you turned on the sign on the exterior of your door – naturally, controlled by the remote that displayed on the television.

Now why is this vital? Ever been to a hotel room where the housekeeping knocks on your door, screams “housekeeping” or worse screams out and then walks in? Will not occur at The Aria. When you’re prepared to have your room cleaned, you apprise them. The bed was “turned down” constantly with chocolates by the bedside. I will not begin to tell you how genial the staff were all though our stay at The Aria. As I stated before, we have stayed at nearly every casino on the strip and The Aria staff were beyond compare with how beneficial and pleasant they were. Not once did I raise a question the staff didn’t have a useful answer to and really appeared pleased to respond.
Now the vital part of the stay – betting. I’ve had a firm belief that new casinos didn’t pay well for your betting efforts because they needed to start coughing up for all of the money invested in building the lovely casino so I’m always a little suspicious of betting.
To my amazement, I won a fair amount on the slots! Pretty room, stunning hotel-casino and genial staff – what else could you ask for? By this time you are thinking about if there’s anything I did not like. Well, yes there had been. The Aria is tough to find. We drove up to what we assumed was the front of The Aria though it was not the front of the hotel and because it wasn’t the front of the hotel, there wasn’t any luggage service. The Aria drips up-scale and wants to have bell-men at each entry. Apart from that small detail, zilch to report that was negative and trust me I’m always looking out for things that are wrong. Hard time with this hotel-casino. I don’t think I need to tell you I would like to suggest The Aria to have a fun, lovely place to flee to for one or two days. How does one get offers for comps? If or when you go to Vegas, use the cards they give you to play with. They track how much you spend and no, you don’t need to spend a lot to get comps. They actually do get you superb bargains. Enjoy your stay at The Aria, I know we probably did and we’re going to go back.

Citycenter Las Vegas
I was traveling in a cab down Las Vegas Blvd. when I first saw the bare bones structure of CityCenter. Upon hearing me gasp, the driver casually commented, “Oh, that’s the MGM CityCenter, a city within a city. It’s being developed by MGM Mirage and the Prince of Dubai.”
Six high-rise towers reaching into the clouds topped by over 10 cranes, it was an impressive structure indeed. I’ve since found out that the driver was not far off. This joint partnership between MGM Mirage and Infinity World Development Corp, a subsidiary of Dubai World, carries the hefty price tag of billion, and upon completion will be the largest privately funded development in U.S. history.
Planning for a opening in late November 2009, its 76 acres will include ARIA, a 61-story gaming resort, three luxury non-gaming hotels; Veer Towers, including 2,600 condominium units; and Crystals, a 500,000 square foot retail, dining and entertainment mecca. Also featured is a fine art program including million in artwork by world renowned artists.
In addition, CityCenter boasts 300,000 square feet of meeting space and is designed to accommodate conventions with attendance up to 5,000 people.
Early in 2009, MGM will begin the daunting task of hiring some 12,000 employees required to maintain CityCenter Las Vegas.
MGM Mirage is striving to be awarded the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification, and claim their design will be one of the world’s largest environmentally sustainable urban communities. Eight award winning architects have combined their vision and brains to create a sustainable development based on the following principles:

Conserving Water: A development of this size uses considerable resources in any location, but in the desert, special consideration for means of water preservation is imperative. Developers have implemented such technology as low-flow bathroom fixtures and an advanced irrigation system.
Environmental Air Quality: Materials used during construction were selected to minimize their emission of harmful compounds and minimize pollutants in the air conditioning system.
Conserving Energy: The design utilizes natural light and other technology to generate on-site power. Systems are automatically programmed to turn off the heating/cooling systems, televisions, lights or appliances when a unit is unoccupied after checkout.
Alternative Forms of Transportation: Incentives will be offered to guests and residents who do their part to support eco-friendly practices. Preferred parking will be offered to those driving low fuel emitting vehicles, or those participating in a car pooling program. Valet parking will be available for those riding their bikes to work. An above ground tramway will get people from place to place within this mini-city.
Advanced Technology: CityCenter architects have raised the bar with their use of advanced guestroom technology previously reserved for luxury custom homes and upscale resort suites. Standard amenities include:
- Upon initially entering a room, the lights will go on, curtains will automatically draw, and the TV will turn on.
- Using a one-touch remote control guests can customize lighting, room temperature, TV and video systems, music, wake-up calls, and service requests. A small panel on the night stand will display the same remote settings on a touch screen.
- Keyless locks can be unlocked easily by flashing their key over the sensor.
- A 42-inch LCD HDTV can be connected to laptops or video devices. The television is also used as a means of communication and displays messages and voicemail alerts.
- The clock radio is replaced with TV settings that control the lighting, curtain opening and initiate a selection of music.
- High speed wireless internet connection with extra bandwidth allows guests to download music or free Internet content. All in room devices are network driven, allowing management to perform remote maintenance quickly and seamlessly.

The Trump Ocean Club ready for the record books
Article by Scott Hancock
A luxurious hotel and housing complex of seventy condo properties in Panama created overlooking the Pacific in the shape of a sail, stand out as the tallest development in Latin America when it will be innaugerated on July 6 by proprietor, the American tycoon Donald Trump.
“You are within tallest building and greatest project in Latin America, with 284 meters of height,” acknowledged happily Frenchman Thierry Baurez, director of Marketing of the ‘Trump Ocean Club International Hotel & Tower, “as staff finished the very last highlights.
It is the initial hotel in Latin America for the Trump group. Inside theUnited States the company has an array of hotels in cities such as Las Vegas, Chicago and New York, and one under construction in Toronto (Canada).
“Trump Ocean Club International Hotel & Tower is our initial undertaking outside the United States,” pointed out Eric Trump, son of the tycoon, during the tour with journalists.
With the an financial investment of over $ 400 million, the structure has 37 elevators, spa, swimming pools, marina, casino site, shops, bistros, an island with a private ocean club, art displays and an expo center of 4,200 square meters.
Actively, ‘The Point’ also located in Panama City is the highest building in Latin America at 67 floors and 266 meters, exceeding by 20 meters the ‘Ocean Two’ which completed a few weeks prior.
For several years, the “Torre Mayor” in Mexico City had been the tallest building in Latin America (225 meters).
The current tallest building in the world is the ‘Burj Dubai’ in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, reaching 828 meters (163 floors), that opened in 2010.
The Trump hotel, was developed by the Colombian architectural enterprise Arias Serna Saravia, in addition possesses 47 ‘suites’, a veranda well over 900 square meters with a pool oriented towards the ocean, personalized butler service and two monumental statues created by the Colombian sculptor Fernando Botero .
“In a lobby as sizable as this a Botero sculpture accommodates perfectly” expresses Baurez, who also reports they have “vended” upwards of 85% of models in the complex, 80% to people from other countries at costs between 250,000 and million dollars.
Amongst the expected guests for the inauguration are artists possibly even a head of state boasted Baurez, but he did not provide any names.
“We’re enthusiastic to present unique things here, which have never been in the Panamanian business,” noted the son of Donald Trump.
The existing real estate boom has converted the capital of Panama to a ‘mini Dubai’, asserted a foreign businessman, with reference to Dubai, section of the rich United Arab Emirates in the Persian Gulf, which is famous for its skyscrapers and enormous buildings.
The lowest priced accommodations will cost more than $ 300 per night while in the hotel, and once completely operational, should utilize a thousand employees.
“It will be our starting point into the Latin American market, that we believe will be an important and powerful market for us ahead,” proclaimed Trump.
His father, 64, sparked the distemper of numerous Panamanians in March when he was quoted saying in an interview that the United States “stupidly”, gave away “for nothing”, the Panama Canal, which in turn caused him being declared persona ‘non grata ‘ by the mayor of Panama City and drew denunciation from Panamanian President Ricardo Martinelli.
The real estate tycoon and TV figure recently stated that because of his “passion” for business, he would not launch a bid for the 2012 presidential election, stopping months of speculation.
