Bally's

As the bridge between old and new Vegas situated in the heart of the Las Vegas Strip, Bally's offers its guests convenience and class with a central location, well-suited amenities and a classic showgirl revue.

Towering neon columns, 200-foot people movers and cascading fountains entice guests inside the landmark resort. With the bevy of dining, shopping, meeting and entertainment options, there's no reason to leave in a hurry. But those who desire can easily stroll back and forth between Bally's and Paris Las Vegas next door through the Le Boulevard shopping and dining area, or catch the Las Vegas Monorail to one of many locations on the Strip or to the Las Vegas Convention Center.

Bally's is home to one of the city's longest-running shows, Donn Arden's "Jubilee!" in the Jubilee! Theater. A lavish topless revue known for its mammoth sets and stunning showgirls, it has dazzled audiences for 30 years, and now even offers an afternoon All-Access Backstage Walking Tour. Other entertainment options at the resort include "Tony n' Tina's Wedding."

Most of Bally's fine dining options -- including the gourmet Bally's Steakhouse -- are located in a corner hallway just off the casino floor, creating a tempting and relaxing restaurant row. On Sundays, the steakhouse features the ever-popular Sterling Brunch with caviar, champagne and other goodies served by waiters in tuxes. Sea - The Thai Experience is a sleek, Bangkok-inspired restaurant featuring Thai fusion cuisine.

In the evenings, both the Mexican-style cantina Tequila Bar and Grill and intimate Indigo Lounge keep the action going with live music and signature cocktails.

Both business and leisure travelers will find accommodations that are spacious and comfortable at Bally's. Pets are even welcome in selected rooms here. In the lobby, guests can easily take care of many needs, whether picking up tickets at the box office, making tour arrangements or asking the concierge for information on activities.

At 67,000 square feet, the casino has all the offerings with countless slot and video poker machines and all your favorite table games. There is also a high-limit area, a stadium-style race and sports book, a poker room and a comfortable 24-hour keno parlor. Bally's Avenue Shoppes, a retail area full of specialty stores, is located on the floor below the casino.

Those looking to relax will enjoy The Spa at Bally's, a salon, a state-of-the-art gym, eight championship tennis courts and a pool complex that includes an oversized heated pool, private cabanas and palm trees. With more than 175,000 square feet of meeting space, Bally's is also the ideal location for business-minded visitors.

One of the city's first major high-rise hotels, Bally's still has all the comfort, classiness and fun that fabulous Vegas vacations require in a great central Strip location.
