While no new hotel properties are set to open, Caesars Palace has a new luxury hotel tower in the works. The 180-room Nobu tower will offer a luxury experience in the space previously occupied by Caesars' Centurion tower. David Rockwell of The Rockwell Group, who recently designed The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, will design the first Nobu hotel around the globe. The property will also feature a Nobu restaurant and lounge.
If you'd like a little bang for your buck, check out the firing range and lounge at Machine Guns Vegas. The company offers guests transportation from their hotel to a firing range where they can fire exotic weaponry. New restaurants include the Old Homestead Steakhouse and the extravagant Hyde Bellagio from Sam Nazarian, an indoor/outdoor lounge designed by Philippe Starck featuring a spectacular view of the Bellagio's fountains.
