- The Bank is a very upscale nightclub for those that expect a little bit more from the clubbing experience;
CONs
- very, very upscale. Maybe the most elegant and classy casino in Vegas, definitely not accessible to everybody (well, this is ovbiously not a real CON, just that a lot of people might feel uncomfortable in this environment, thou others might just have the money and the social status to enjoy it);
- besides the dress code, the prices might also keep you at a distance;
I hope I have gave you an idea what Bellagio is all about. A great place to go visit, an oustanding, elegant place to go eat, a classy place to stay during your trip.
