Betting, hotel and casino guide: Bellagio Las Vegas
The Bellagio encapsulates timeless Las Vegas luxury, being widely regarded as one of Sin City’s most elegant casino resorts.
Nestled right in the heart of the strip, visitors can enjoy its laid-back feel while still being a stone's throw away from all the Vegas chaos.
Here, Travel News Blitz’s Sam Condy breaks down what to expect from one of Vegas’ crown jewels.
The Casino Floor
The Bellagio’s casino spans over 100,000 square feet, and packs a variety of games, perfect for all manner of gamblers.
The poker room is a highlight of the casino floor, featuring a whopping 40 tables, known for its high-stakes games and professional atmosphere - it's perfect for those who know their way around a deck of cards.
Sportsbook
The sportsbook may be smaller than some of its Strip rivals, but that's not a bad thing, offering a more refined and intimate experience.
Focusing on quality over quantity, bettors can watch the games lounging in plush armchairs, feeling like a true VIP.
The betting windows and digital kiosks are simple and easy to use, and the customer service makes spending an afternoon here a breeze.
It's tailored to a relaxed afternoon of sport betting, so those looking for a more party atmosphere should perhaps look elsewhere.

Hotel and Pool
Offering nearly 4,000 different rooms, the Bellagio caters to visitors of all budgets. The hotel's classic design, yet modern amenities, make any visitor feel like a high roller.
Its Mediterranean-style pool deck features five pools, private cabanas, and a serene atmosphere away from the chaos.
Nightlife
Despite its more laid-back vibe, the Bellagio still brings solid nightlife options for those looking for the odd late night.
Lily Bar & Lounge offers classy cocktails and DJ sets, while Baccarat Bar is ideal for pre-dinner drinks.
