From season to season, episode to episode and sometimes even scene to scene, the hotel\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s location varied. Although many of the exterior shots placed The Montecito on the south end of Las Vegas Blvd., shots from Big Ed\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s office placed the resort across the street from The Venetian and Harrah\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s. <\/p>\n<p>Well, the magic of The Montecito is returning in the form of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.phtowers.com\" target=\"_blank\">PH Towers<\/a>. This new hotel\/timeshare sister resort of Planet Hollywood is scheduled to open in November. While I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m anxious to check out the suites, the Celebrity Buffet and the pool area, the most impressive feature is PH Towers\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 defiance of the laws of both space and time.  <\/p>\n<p>For almost three years, construction of PH Towers has taken place on land behind Planet Ho. On the resort\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s Web site, both a map and a room photo showing Bellagio and Caesars across the street confirm this location. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/fhbm\/images\/phmap.gif\"\/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/fhbm\/images\/phroom1.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Additional photos on the site, however, indicate some of the resort\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s rooms are located just north <i>and<\/i> south of The Venetian. These rooms include not only fantastic views of The Strip, but apparently views from at least three years ago. Do you miss Stardust (RIP 2006) and New Frontier (RIP 2007)? Thanks to PH Towers, they\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re back. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/fhbm\/images\/phnorth.jpg\"\/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/fhbm\/images\/phsouth.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Few details about the Anywhere\/Anytime Strip Suites have emerged, so I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m not sure what other views are available. Michele is hoping for a room overlooking the rotating shoe at The Silver Slipper, while I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d just like to see the \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Future Home of Countryland U.S.A.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d marquee one more time. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PH Towers defies the laws of time and space.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-348","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-las-vegas-news"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pDEuM-5C","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fivehundybymidnight.com\/fhbm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/348","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fivehundybymidnight.com\/fhbm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fivehundybymidnight.com\/fhbm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fivehundybymidnight.com\/fhbm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fivehundybymidnight.com\/fhbm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=348"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.fivehundybymidnight.com\/fhbm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/348\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fivehundybymidnight.com\/fhbm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=348"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fivehundybymidnight.com\/fhbm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=348"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fivehundybymidnight.com\/fhbm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=348"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
