Smoke a cigar ar the Bellagio?

Question

Going to spend a few days at the Bellagio. Where can I smoke a cigar and not trouble anyone- during the day and evening- besides outside?

Answer

The Bellagio, like many Las Vegas resorts, has strict smoking policies due to indoor air quality and guest comfort. However, there are a few places where you can enjoy a cigar without causing too much disturbance to others. Here’s what you can consider:

Bellagio's Baccarat Lounge: This lounge is one of the few indoor areas where smoking cigars is allowed. It's a more upscale, quieter space where you can enjoy your cigar without bothering others, and it's a popular spot for those who appreciate a good cigar. The atmosphere is sophisticated, and you’ll find a comfortable setting for a relaxing smoke.
The Bellagio Casino Floor: Smoking is allowed on the casino floor, but keep in mind it’s a busy area with heavy foot traffic. It's not the most private space, but if you don't mind a bustling environment, you can enjoy your cigar while playing or just people-watching. Make sure you're not in areas where non-smoking guests are present.
Nearby Cigar Lounges (Off-Site): While Bellagio offers limited options, there are nearby cigar lounges where you can have a more dedicated experience. Consider checking out the Montecristo Cigar Bar at Caesars Palace or The Vault Cigar Lounge at the Cosmopolitan. Both are cigar-friendly and offer a relaxed atmosphere for cigar aficionados.
Outdoor Areas (Patios, etc.): While you mentioned avoiding outdoor smoking, there are designated outdoor smoking areas around the Bellagio, including by the pools or outdoor patios, where guests can enjoy a cigar in a more tranquil environment away from the crowds.

Overall, the Baccarat Lounge is your best bet for an indoor, cigar-friendly environment at the Bellagio. If you're looking for a more relaxed experience, exploring the off-property cigar bars might be a good option as well. Just remember to be mindful of other guests, especially in public spaces like the casino floor.
