Voodoo Lounge Vegas - View the Vegas Strip from the 51st Floor

By VegasNightClubVIP.com

On the 51st floor of the Rio Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas sits the Voodoo Lounge. You can feel the hustle and bustle of the casino action as you approach the Masquerade Village section of the Rio. This is the area of the hotel where you will discover the elevator entrance to the Voodoo Lounge.

As you approach the elevator you experience the hustle and bustle of the neighboring gambling areas. Due to the popularity of to Voodoo Lounge in Las Vegas a line usually forms to ride the elevator up to the top floor of the Rio Hotel tower. For those who have a Las Vegas VIP club or line pass, you can avoid the line and get on the elevator immediately with no waiting.

If you happen to get caught in line you can always view the bill of fare posted on the walls for the VooDoo Steak restaurant which is located one story underneath the lounge itself. The inside section of the Voodoo Lounge is accessible from the Voodoo restaurant by a huge staircase that connects the 50th and 51st stories.

The elevator actually scales the building on the exterior and has a wide glass window from which you can get a glimpse of the South end of the Las Vegas Strip as you make your accent. The elevator ride itself is a enjoyable time especially if you are with a good group.

As you exit the elevator, you have a short walk through a darkened hallway that is illuminated with black light by what can best be described as voodoo-like artwork hanging on the walls. Once inside the club the candle themed decor gives a sense that voodoo magic is being performed by the bartenders as they mix their potions before delivering them to the guests.

Live bands performances are held on the stage inside the Voodoo Lounge. This is one of the popular features of the guests of the club. In general, there is no separate area inside the lounge set aside as a dance floor. Most visitors just create their own dance space near or in their booth. There is ever a stripper pole used as part of the decor.

However, the outdoor patio portion of the Voodoo Lounge at the Rio is really where all the voodoo magic occurs. First there is a magnificent view of the entire Las Vegas strip and at night it is breathtaking. You can pull up a VIP couch and order your favorite beverage then just sit back, relax and unwind as you take in the magnificent views. The outside terrace of the Voodoo Lounge has a bar area along with a disc jockey playing hip-hop and top 40 hits for your enjoyment.

The lounge is not dominated by any particular age group and anyone can visit without feeling out of place or uncomfortable. If you are looking for an awesome place to unwind and have a couple voodoo magic potions the Voodoo Lounge at the Rio is the perfect ticket. - 15255
