The Wynn is stunning. I've been in a lot of fancy hotels but this one is the flagship property of the guy that owns half of the LAS strip. The level of finishes and the detailing is incredible considering the scale of the property.
Its worth a visit just to oggle the facilities. You get the gee whiz kinda feeling you get when you walk through the vatican museum, where any given square foot of wall space was painted by an Italian master is is probably worth millions..
