- Sixteen years since breaking ground, Las Vegas' Fontainebleau has officially opened its doors.
- The hotel and casino is an offshoot of the original Fontainebleau in Miami.
After 16 years of anticipation, a new Las Vegas icon has opened its doors.
Since breaking ground on the property in 2007, the Fontainebleau Las Vegas has changed ownership and names, and construction has been halted and restarted several times, per CoStar, a real estate database. Now, years of work have come to fruition.
On Wednesday, the Fontainebleau held its grand opening, drawing celebrities to welcome the brand-new hotel and casino to the Strip. A younger sibling to the original Fontainebleau in Miami, the hotel's Vegas property boasts more than 3,600 rooms. And at 67 stories high, it's the tallest building in Nevada, Eater reported.
A-listers got their first glimpse into the hotel a few days ago — now, you can too. Here are 11 photos that show what it's like inside the Fontainebleau in Las Vegas.
