In what could be the worse timing of any hotel opening, Steve Wynn premiered his brand new Encore Las Vegas this evening. With the country well in recession and foreigners less likely to drop their ever scarce Euros and Yen on a weekend of frivolous gambling, Wynn will be hard-pressed to make the launch a success. Rates in January will run about $200 with certain nights for Red Card members dropping down to $129. Hotel reviews will probably start rolling in during the next few days and we'll make sure to keep you all posted. Hopefully, they'll have a more liberal checkout policy than its sister Wynn. We did hear from a Wynn front desk person a few weeks ago that Encore should have a more youthful vibe, especially once it's XS nightclub opens in January.
