Earlier this year I wrote about the much-anticipated upcoming opening of the world’s first Nobu Hotel (several others are in the works, from Miami to Dubai), inside Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. With the possible exception of the under-construction Linq Resort, compete with an London Eye-style giant observation wheel, scheduled to open on the Strip in December, the Nobu Hotel Las Vegas is easily the biggest lodging event of the year in one of the world’s most popular tourist destinations, which instantly makes it big travel news.
