Centrally located, right opposite Caesars Palace, you're on the corner that also includes The Bellagio & Ballys - and within easy walking distance of The Mirage, Treasure Island, The Venetian, Wynn, Harrahs & Imperial Palace.
A lovely, older property which is spread over 6 different towers, the Flamingo offers (generally) great prices for just about the best location in Vegas. The Deluxe rooms are fine (upgrade to the Go Luxury rooms and ask for a view of The Bellagio fountains! You can sit there and watch the displays from the best possible viewpoint!) without being anything mind shattering. The buffet is, again, very good - but there are slightly better choices at Harrah’s for about the same price. However, the two real selling points here are the staff (who were very helpful, always) and the pool area - which is simply a mind boggling array of five pool areas, fountains and waterfalls, set in a magical natural habitat area with Koi carp, flamingoes, exotic bird species etc.
It's also easy to access - unlike some other Vegas pool areas- and gets the sun all day long! Great for kids - and the small shopping areas are great for those last minute presents. Ideal, all round.
