General information

Las Vegas is a city that is larger than life, where dazzling architecture and sparkling lights lure to world-class gaming, shopping, dining and entertainment. Most hotels are major tourist attractions, offering the opportunity to visit an Egyptian sphinx, relax at the beach at Mandalay Bay, dine atop the Eiffel Tower or ride a roller coaster around the Manhattan skyline.

Located at the scenic hub of four western states, Las Vegas is nestled in a desert valley surrounded by eight mountain ranges. Founded by gold miners, the city quickly became a place of fantasy and extravagance. This vibrant character has made Las Vegas one of the world’s most popular destinations for business and pleasure.

Its population of 1.8 million plays host to many trade shows and high-profile events, including NASCAR races, baseball’s Big League Weekend, the World Series of Poker, the National Finals Rodeo and golf’s Las Vegas Invitational. Nearby are wonders of nature as magnificent as the open Mojave Desert, the Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam.

In a city with a multitude of choices, Four Seasons Hotel Las Vegas offers a quiet place in which to choose. Whatever the selection, legendary Concierge staff are ready around the clock to add their special finesse.
