Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens, a Local’s Review

The Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens is one of my favorite hidden gems in Las Vegas. Many do not know about it when they visit here – even the locals!

Each season, the enormously talented Horticulture and Engineering teams transform the 14,000-square-foot Botanical Gardens into a showcase of inspiring sights, sounds, scents and colors. Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter are all featured—along with a special display for Lunar New Year. When the seasons change so do the displays. The talented Conservatory team changes out the design and also replants and repurposes as much of the living plant material as possible, further celebrating Mother Nature and our commitment to sustainability.

Location

Bellagio Resort & Casino
3600 Las Vegas Blvd S
Las Vegas, NV 89109

The Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens is located right next to the hotel lobby at the Bellagio. The easiest way to get there is by parking at the Bellagio. If you are a local, you can score free self-parking for the first three hours as long as you have a Nevada ID. If you are planning on hanging out on the strip and browsing around Aria, Vdara, or The Shops at Crystals, you can park at any of those locations and hop on the free tram to the Bellagio.

FROM HOTEL LOBBY
When facing the Front Desk, the Conservatory is located directly to your right.

FROM NORTH VALET & VIA BELLAGIO
Follow the pathway into the casino, as you approach Lily Bar & Lounge, take a left. Continue through the casino until you enter the hotel lobby. The conservatory will be on your right.

Cost

FREE! That’s right, the Bellagio Conservatory is a free experience for everyone – locals, tourists, and more!

This is not something you can book a visit to as a field trip as it is an open space for everyone to view at their convenience.

Did you know you can have your wedding proposal at the Conservatory? The Bellagio Wedding team is dedicated to plan and coordinate your one-of-a kind, surprise proposal.

This never-been-done-before dining concept features tempting creations from the talented Bellagio culinary team and is served in the serene beauty of the Bellagio Conservatory. Each experience is artistically inspired by each season of the year. Seats up to 6 guests maximum for brunch and 4 guests maximum for dinner.

Tips for Your Visit

We’ve been visiting the Bellagio Conservatory for YEARS! Here are some things we’ve learned, especially when bringing the whole family.

Visit During the Weekdays

If your schedule allows, visit during the weekdays and preferably either before hotel check-out begins or before hotel check-in occurs each day. Why?

The conservatory & botanical gardens are located next to the hotel lobby and tend to get packed during this time. Even worse on the weekends as it is crowded and you really don’t get to enjoy the experience of this space.

Stroller & Babywearing Friendly

This experience is stroller and babywearing-friendly. We brought our Mockingbird stroller with zero issues, however, on the weekends when it’s more packed, it can feel like a nuisance.

While You’re There

While the Bellagio Conservatory & Botanical Gardens is a wonderful place, I wouldn’t recommend heading to the strip just to visit the Conservatory alone as it can be a bit of a headache to lug the entire crew out for less than 30 minutes.
