Wynn Las Vegas Resort and Country Club ("Wynn") is a luxury casino resort located on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada. The US $2.7 billion resort is named after casino developer Steve Wynn and is the flagship property of Wynn Resorts Limited.
The resort covers 215 acres (87 ha). It is located at Las Vegas Boulevard South and Sands Avenue (on the N.E. corner), directly across The Strip from the Fashion Show Mall. The 2,716 rooms range in size from 640 sq ft (59 m2) to the villas at 7,000 sq ft (650 m2) with a 111,000 sq ft (10,300 m2) casino, a convention center with 223,000 sq ft (20,700 m2) of space, and 76,000 sq ft (7,100 m2) of retail space. Together with the adjacent Encore which opened in late 2008, the entire Wynn resort complex has a total of 4,750 rooms. Its height is 614 ft (187 m), and it has 45 floors. The resort has earned AAA five diamond, Mobil five-star, and Michelin five-star ratings and is considered to be one of the finest hotels in the United States.
Wynn has stated that the major difference between the Wynn and many other Las Vegas hotels is that it was designed from the "inside out." In contrast to his previous hotels Bellagio, The Mirage, and Treasure Island, there is no Las Vegas Strip attraction to draw in passers-by. Instead, visitors must venture inside to see what the hotel is all about.
At its opening, the Wynn was the tallest hotel building on the strip (a record which lasted for two years). It was the first Vegas casino to feature a car (Ferrari-Maserati) dealership.
Other firsts:
*The Wynn combined the room key and the casino frequent-player card in one card
* The world's largest distribution of HDTV into hotel rooms
* The largest installation of Voice over IP technology for hotel phones.
* It was also among the first casinos to install RFID tags inside chips
Additionally, The Wynn is featured as a Top U.S. Hotel by the Zagat Survey.
