So you want to plan a trip to Las Vegas. Great decision! Now, the question is what are the nicest and fanciest places in town?

So, you say that you want to stay in the nicest hotel in Las Vegas. Well there are a couple of options for you, as there isn't "one best option". A good place to start would be the Five Diamond Award winning resorts. On Las Vegas Boulevard (or the strip) there is the Bellagio, Venetian, MGM Skylofts, the Four Seasons, and of course the Wynn.

When it comes to gambling and if you like to gamble high stakes, all of these properties can accommodate the limits you like to play (except the Four Seasons, as it doesn't offer gaming). However, most of the highest rollers tend to hang out in the Wynn, Bellagio, and Venetian.

The Bellagio is a very elaborate and nicely presented hotel that just screams class. It's most remembered for the fountains directly in front of the hotel. It offers plenty of fine dining options, and is a sight to behold. During your trip, you should take a look at the Botanical Gardens. It is an elaborate inside garden that they change throughout the year.

The Venetian is an Italian themed hotel. It has gondolas that go inside the mall, and in front of the hotel. Guests can actually ride in them with singing gondoliers. The Venetian puts an emphasis on Italian themed art and decor. The ceilings are painted like the Sistine Chapel, and the tile work and wall decorations bring the whole look together for a great visual stimulation.

The MGM Skylofts are located at the top of the MGM Grand. The MGM Skylofts are wonderful rooms with lots of luxuries and amenities that don't come with a normal room at the MGM Grand. The MGM Grand itself is a nice place with a wide variety of gaming, dining, and entertainment options. It isn't as flashy as say the Wynn or Bellagio, but it is still a great place.

The latest design from one of the most well known casino resort/real-estate developers is the Wynn. Steve Wynn created the Wynn and its sister property Encore, and has outdone himself yet again. Wynn's previous projects include the Mirage, Treasure Island, and the Bellagio before they were sold off.

The Wynn, which Steve claims as, "The only hotel I've ever signed my name to" really has has a lot to offer its guests. In the Wynn, you'll find fine dining, the Esplanade Shoppes which feature some of the most famous brands in retail, to a golf course, and even a Ferrari/Maserati dealership! Around every turn you will find visually stimulating displays. The Wynn really puts emphasis on luxury and great service, and is a great place to stay in Las Vegas.

You will find all of these places stunning, and absolutely wonderful. Keep in mind if you are looking for $1 drafts or $5 blackjack you won't find it in these places. Be prepared to shell out a few extra dollars, but at the same time, if you can afford it the service and amenities in these hotels are second to none. Sometimes you just have to spoil yourself.

Bangkok's nightlife has welcomed millions of visitors every year with open arms. It's interesting mix of dance clubs, jazz clubs, pubs and of course the infamous sex districts has attracted hard core party addicts from all corners of the world. Whatever you're into, Bangkok's nightlife has it all and more.

To experience the full breath of Bangkok's nightlife it's best to book a hotel in the center of Bangkok, in areas such as the district of Patpong and along Sukhumvit road. The advantages of staying in a hotel around  those areas is it's easy for tourist to travel and get around. Plus those are the areas where most international shops and businesses are available and familiar to tourist. Another top reason is because of the easy transportation offered by the BTS Sky Train. This is a very efficient elevated train system that runs above the streets of Patpong and Sukhumvit. Since Bangkok's traffic is horrendous especially around the nightlife areas it's best to take full advantage of the BTS Sky Train.

Most people have already heard of Patpong already, infamously known for the seedy sex shows and the equally seedy touts who try to lure tourist in. It's also where dozens of go go bars are lined with even more touts promoting cheap booze and sex. But in and between these dens of flesh are popular dance clubs such as Lucifer. There are several English pubs in the area too with refreshing micro brewed beer and traditional English fare such as Shepherd's Pie and Bangers & Mash. There are also live talented bands playing a mix of rock and jazz to tap your toes while downing your beer.

Some of the popular hotels in the vicinity of Patpong's nightlife area are Montien Hotel, Siam Heritage Boutique Hotel and Swiss Lodge. All of these hotels are top rated so they are very popular.

Another well known Bangkok nightlife district runs along a major road called Sukhumvit. Sukhumvit has a large concentration of upscale clubs to small beer bars that are all equally packed nightly. The names of some popular upscale clubs are Q Bar and Bed Supper Club. Sukhumvit road also runs through two red light districts called Nana and Soi Cowboy. Both are extremely popular with male tourist who have a habit of visiting go go bars. There are literally hundreds of small open air bars or beer gardens where hundreds of freelance Thai prostitutes hang around as well.

There are many Bangkok nightlife activities in this area and it's a wise decision to stay in a hotel around Sukhumvit road. Some names of popular hotel choices are Majestic Grande, Dawin Bangkok Hotel and Ambassador Hotel. The BTS Sky Train also runs above Sukhumvit road and are all within easy walking distance from the hotels mentioned here.
