Features
In contrast to his previous hotels Bellagio, The Mirage, and Treasure Island, there is no Las Vegas Strip attraction to draw in passers-by. Instead, visitors must venture inside to see what the hotel is all about.
At its opening, the Wynn was the tallest hotel building on the strip (a record which lasted two years). It was the first Vegas casino to feature a car (Ferrari-Maserati) dealership Other firsts:
- The Wynn combined the room key and the casino frequent-player card in one card
- The world's largest distribution of HDTV, into hotel rooms using high-speed Cat-6 Ethernet cables
- The largest installation of Voice over IP technology for hotel phones
It was also among the first casinos to install RFID tags inside chips to better detect counterfeiting.
Additionally, The Wynn is featured as a Top U.S. Hotel by the Zagat Survey.

Famous quotes containing the word features:
“It is a tribute to the peculiar horror of contemporary life that it makes the worst features of earlier times—the stupefaction of the masses, the obsessed and driven lives of the bourgeoisie—seem attractive by comparison.”
—Christopher Lasch (b. 1932)
“Each reader discovers for himself that, with respect to the simpler features of nature, succeeding poets have done little else than copy his similes.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event—in the living act, the undoubted deed—there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask!”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
