It seems appropriate that the Flamingo Hilton is a direct
descendant of the hotel where modern Vegas began; even though Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel's original Flamingo
is gone now, the hotel that bears the name is no less glamorous. The lush gardens behind the room towers seem removed from Sin City entirely, with live African penguins, Chilean flamingos, Mandarin ducks and Koi fish frolicking in ponds and under three-story waterfalls. A number of tennis courts, swimming pools and a world-class health spa make the Flamingo seem less a casino and more of a full resort. The Radio City Rockettes kick nightly in the Flamingo Showroom, accompanied by a well-known singing personality and a wealth of variety acts, while the heartwarming '50s tribute "Forever Plaid" shakes in Bugsy's Celebrity Theater. Nine restaurants cater to tastes ranging from Italian to Chinese, and the Paradise Garden Buffet serves up delicious food in an idyllic setting. And it goes without saying that the casino is enormous, with 2,100 slot machines, 64 table games and a giant sports book to reward the fortunate. True to its lineage, the Flamingo Hilton is a quintessential Las Vegas experience.
