From the Absolut Vodka suite at Caesars Palace to the 20-television suite at The Venetian and the themed fantasy suites at The Palms (basketball, anyone?), Las Vegas offers some of the most over-the-top accommodations in the world... with a price tag to match. Decked out with the finest and craziest amenities, these fantastical suites are certainly attention-grabbing. A recent article in the Associated Press features a round-up of these ultra-luxe digs. Of course there are some affordable ones, too. Try $600 for a 1-bedroom at the MGM Grand, where a 24-hour butler can pack and unpack your suitcase.
