Fodor's Expert Review Flamingo Las Vegas

This elaborately landscaped, pink, classic-era resort with a 15-acre pool complex (including GO Pool Dayclub) is still one of the best choices in town, and GO rooms (which run about $50 to $100 more per night than standard rooms), with electronic window treatments and other high-tech touches, are downright stylish. One-bedroom Cosmopolitan Suites are decorated in chocolate browns and hot pinks. Be sure to check out the on-site wildlife area, complete with a koi pond and, naturally, a flamboyance of Chilean flamingos. Two other big attractions: the Margaritaville-themed three-level restaurant with six bars and live entertainment on Fridays and Saturdays, and The LINQ Promenade—a retail, dining, and entertainment complex—next door.
