Designs call for a rooftop pool deck, bar and lounge; three restaurants; two additional bar and lounge concepts on the gaming floor; a grab-and-go café on the street level; 12,000 square feet of meeting and event space; a full-service spa; and a fitness center. “There is no shortage of mega-resorts in Las Vegas, but there is a lack of boutique hotels that offer a more intimate curated experience,” says David Daneshforooz, CEO of Contour. “A ground-up Dream hotel with its world-class food and beverage offerings was an obvious choice for a boutique execution on this site and will be a great addition to the Las Vegas Strip.” Located across the street from Mandalay Bay Resort and Bali Hai Golf Club, Dream Las Vegas will be one of the first hotels seen from the iconic “Welcome to Las Vegas” sign.
