I know Casino Royale well (triple triple triple cash!). I used to jokingly say that the Venetian should market the fact that CR is right next door (I did consider it a plus when staying at Venetian). I do like to play VP there, but in terms of rooms, I'm looking for something more high-end - something the wife will be excited about. So I'm wondering about room comps/offers at Bellagio, Aria, Mirage, Wynn, etc.
