The Venetian resort is the largest five-star hotel on the American continent. Built on the spot of the former Hotel Sands, the resort which also includes the hotel and casino with the same name is located in the famous Vegas Strip, the place where gambling fans all over the world meet.
As its name announces, the resort is built in a genuine Venetian style, from architecture, to the street atmosphere and typical Italian details.
The hotel has 4,049 apartments and a huge casino covering a surface of over 11,000 square meters. Together with the Sands Expo Business Center and The Palazzo Hotel, all three belonging to Las Vegas Sands Corp, The Venetian is part of the largest complex in the world, offering its visitors 7,128 rooms and apartments.
On November 26th 1996, only 8 years after being bought by Sheldon Adelson, the hotel The Sands was demolished in order to make room for the Venetian Resort. The opening of the resort took place on May 3rd 1999, with white pigeons, trump sounds, gondoliers singing, having Sophia Loren as special guest who also “baptized” the first motorized gondola, along with the owner Sheldon Adel-son.
