Bally's Las Vegas will rebrand as a Horseshoe hotel-casino this year and host the World Series of Poker in late May.

The Horseshoe Las Vegas project includes an exterior renovation, new entertainment and culinary options, and a redesigned casino floor and common areas.

"At Horseshoe, it's all about the gambler. Since 1951, Horseshoe casinos have been home to the best odds, highest limits and biggest jackpots. So, it's fitting that we bring Horseshoe back to Las Vegas, and right on the Las Vegas Strip," said Jason Gregorec, the hotel's senior vice president and general manager.

A rebranding of the 2,800-room hotel is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2022.

The New York - New York Hotel & Casino Las Vegas’s exterior has scale models of famous and infamous buildings throughout the city of New York, such as the Chrysler Building, 55 Water Street, the Lever House Soap Company, the CBS Building, the Empire State Building, and of course, the Statue of Liberty. Other instances of heavy theming includes the Brooklyn Bridge, located on the side of the casino entrance, and the use of smaller buildings decorated across the walls.

The sheer size of the new Resorts World Las Vegas is what hits you as you approach the new 88-acre complex, which opened on the Strip on June 24.
Within its sleek red towers are 3,500 guestrooms and suites spread across three Hilton brands, 40 food and beverage options, a 117,000-square-foot casino, a quarter-million square feet of meetings and banquet space, a 27,000-square-foot spa and the 5,000-seat RW Theatre.

Yet, as you make your way through the place, the size becomes less overwhelming. It's opulent yet approachable, sprawling but divided into more intimately scaled areas.

Resorts World has a city-within-a-city approach, with broad neighborhoods and districts offering an array of dining, shopping and entertainment experiences. Executives on a recent media preview tour repeatedly emphasized that they are instilling a welcoming culture and authentic customer service that reflects the Asian roots of the Genting Group, which constructed the $4.3 billion complex.

Encompassing all 2,568 guest rooms in the resort’s main tower, the new designs take inspiration from the movement of water, the beauty of nature and the vibrant reflections of light seen at sunrise and set. Featuring a luxurious oversized shower, dual sinks, a built-in closet and an activity table, Bellagio’s new guest rooms reflect thoughtful use of each space.

Circa Resort & Casino plans to be the first ever adults-only, 21+ casino-resort in Las Vegas history. Not only will it provide incredible luxury amenities, it also pays homage to Las Vegas’ history with its vintage glamour style and “old-school hospitality,” according to a statement from the resort. As a special tribute, the resort will be home to Vegas Vickie, one of the most iconic neon signs from the Strip, in their own lobby.

They will house a truly unique pool amphitheater, called Stadium Swim. All year long, guests will be able to catch the biggest games and major televised events broadcast on the 14-million-pixel screen while relaxing in Circa’s six temperature-controlled pools and two spas.

A growing number of Las Vegas Strip hotels are instituting midweek closures as they wait out the pandemic.

Starting Nov. 9, the Park MGM, previously known as the Monte Carlo Resort and Casino, is closed from noon on Mondays until noon on Thursdays through December. Last month, Wynn Resorts instituted a similar midweek closure at its Encore property, the Las-Vegas Review-Journal reported.

In July, the all-suites Palazzo hotel, owned by the Las Vegas Sands Corporation, stopped accepting weekday reservations. That practice will change to accommodate the Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s holidays.

Las Vegas hotels are experimenting with midweek closures due to a drop in demand brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic.
