The Palms opened its jaw dropping Fantasy Tower on Saturday night. The themed hotel rooms include: The Erotic Suite, The Kingpin Suite (with two lane bowling alley) and The Pink Suite. As spectacular as the rooms are the full glass wall view they offer (placed in the 25-26 floors) of the Strip is breathtaking. It used to be that suites like this existed only for whales. For a period, the MGM officially denied its Mansion even existed like it was the Area 51 of the Strip. There was no reason to talk about it, because the rooms weren't for rent. This story is probably apocryphal but it carries a spiritual truth: A casino host (assigned boot lickers/salesmen for top gamblers) once told me that Bill Gates tried to rent a room at MGM's Mansion for one night when he was to give a keynote address at the Comdex convention. The richest man in the world allegedly offered $50,000 for an evening's lodging and was bluntly told, "We are not looking for $50,000 a night; we give those rooms to someone betting $50,000 a hand." Anyway, the times have changed and The Mansion is now totally publicly accessible and available to any super rich person (even one who does not gamble).
