Flamingo updates guest rooms to modern deco

In a firm showing it will not be imploded anytime soon, Flamingo Las Vegas will be renovating and updating guest rooms to offer modern accommodations and amenities.
Every time we stop by Flamingo, we see work being done -- whether on the Diamond Lounge or new carpet near the Total Rewards area. (This, alas, cannot be said for Imperial Palace.)
New rooms will be equipped with MP3 player docking stations, entertainment systems, and other technologically advanced amenities.
Of Flamingo's 3,500 guest rooms, 636 will be renovated. About 10 percent of those are expected to be finished by next month, with the rest of the 636 to be completed by February 2007.
When reserving, ask for a remodeled room, which will be on the 17th through 26th floors.
We'll quote their press release, since their PR department spent so much time thinking up flowery descriptions for what you can expect:
The fresh Flamingo experience begins at hotel check-in, where guests will receive a CD of rock songs specially compiled for the hotel, along with newly designed room keys that complement the resort's new room decor. The contemporary atmosphere is carried all the way to the room via redesigned elevator banks and vibrantly striped hallways.Guest comfort is at the forefront in the innovative bedroom and bathroom designs, with splashes of signature Flamingo pink accenting the space. Bedrooms feature oversized white vinyl headboards, posh carpet, and sleek, modern furniture. Ultra-soft pillow-top mattresses are tripled-sheeted with plush linens and are flanked with LED chrome reading lights. White drapery adorns the bedroom walls, adding an air of sophistication. Deluxe bathrooms include stylish frosted glass walls and doors, multiple jetted shower fixtures and luxurious bath amenities.
The new accommodations indulge tech-savvy guests with a host of cutting edge digital accessories. Living space becomes an area of leisure with a top-of-the-line sound system with MP3 player docking station, CD/DVD player, electronically controlled window treatments and wireless internet connection. Rooms also are equipped with 42" flat panel, high definition television sets and built-in screens in the bathroom mirrors.
