Only in Las Vegas can the Big Apple be so accessible. Best known for its checker-cabbie roller coaster, New York-New York whirls guests through the city’s most recognizable monuments, including the Empire State Building and the Statue of Liberty, in a matter of minutes. Guest rooms are given appropriate names like Park Avenue and Broadway Deluxe, which offers nearly 450 square feet of space and includes marble counter tops and a glass tub enclosure. When space is available, you can upgrade to a spa suite for a nominal fee. Entertainment options run the gamut from dueling pianos at the Bar at Times Square to Cirque’s “sensual” show, Zumanity. A new rock-themed nightclub called ROK Vegas, which is already a hit in Miami, is the resort’s newest chic addition.
