Palazzo Las Vegas is Kind of a Bust

Where: 3339 Las Vegas Blvd S [map], Las Vegas, nv, United States, 89109

Over the weekend, we managed to walk around the newly opened Palazzo Las Vegas and to be honest, we weren't blown away but what we saw.

Granted, it's still the first few days of opening but the place was dead. We can't ever recall being in such a dead gambling hall before. On a Friday night. At 11pm. However, as soon as you walked over to the Venetian's main gambling floor, things were popping again. Maybe the folks in there just didn't know about the Palazzo yet.

We also popped into Jay-Z's club 40/40 and the same could be said there. The club has a great lay-out and plays killer hip-hop music, although we could do without the giant screen playing non-stop ESPN. Still, the place wasn't even half-full while Tao at the Venetian was horrendously crowded (thanks to a party for porn star Brianna Banks.)

Hopefully, the Palazzo's opening weekend this weekend will be more crowded than what we saw.
