About the Casino
The resort formerly known as the Hyatt Lake Las Vegas and then as the Loews Lake Las Vegas has entered a new era as Westin Lake Las Vegas, an important link in the upscale hotelier's corporate chain. Changes to the hotel have been (and are expected to be) modest at best - mostly some decor changes and the addition of the new parent company's trademark "Heavenly" beds.
When it opened as the Hyatt, the reaction from most Vegas visitors was a polite and respectful shrug. Although many believed in the brand, the location of the hotel some 25-30 minutes east of just about everything most visitors want to do when they hit town didn't put it up high on the options list. Despite this, they managed to do pretty good business, focusing mainly on families, recreation fanatics, and business travelers to fill (at least some of) their nearly 500 rooms.
The entire place has a vaguely Moroccan theme to it, but it is not as obvious or overwhelming as the former Aladdin or Sahara. Instead they get by with intricately carved woodwork, rich and colorful fabrics, tasteful jeweled lamps, and subtle artworks. Some of that is being toned down in the Westin transition.
As the Loews, not much changed for both good and ill.
