The Venetian's Resort-Hotel-Casino and its Venezia Tower include more than 4,000 suites which are nearly twice the size of the average Las Vegas hotel room with a sunken living room, marble-adorned bath, and grand amenities travelers have come to expect of The Venetian brand. Designed by KNA Interior Design of Los Angeles, the renovation will update the 3,014 suites in The Venetian, and will welcome guests to a distinctly modern European design with contemporary touches throughout. The Venezia Tower's 1,013 suites, a "hotel within a hotel," opened in 2003 with the first concierge-level in Las Vegas and will not be updated as part of the renovation project.

"The Venetian is one of the most luxurious properties in Las Vegas. Exemplary service, dining, entertainment, shopping and extraordinary accommodations define the true Venetian experience," said Rob Goldstein, president and chief operating officer of The Venetian. "This renovation places us ahead of the curve in a highly competitive tourist destination. These suites set the standard for luxury hotel accommodations not only on the Las Vegas Strip but in the world."

Modern touches exclusive to The Venetian Resort-Hotel-Casino, such as new design, carpets, furniture, and fixtures, will include:

• Three televisions: in the King suite -- 17" LCD in the bath, 32" in the living room, and 32" in the bedroom; in the Dual Queen suite -- 17" LCD in the bath, 32" in the living room, and 42" plasma in the bedroom.
