Currently staying at Delano, first time w/ the Noir card. it took asking at the VIP Services desk (at Mandalay Bay, ground floor off the lobby), and then sending an email to a host, but I was able to get access to the 62nd floor Penthouse lounge. I didn't try getting on the elevator before asking, so I don't know if I could have gotten in anyhow or not. But it really is a fantastic perk -- beautiful views, some basic snacks (cheese/crackers, cookies), and comp drinks (Jack, Tanqueray, etc., also free Sugar Free Red Bull). And the woman who runs the lounge must be the sweetest lady in town. She'll also pour you a whole glass full of booze if that's your thing. There's a theater-like sports-viewing area too. We stopped in twice yesterday... in a town where everything costs money, it's very nice to have a little retreat to sit chill and watch the game in between other stuff.
