Las Vegas is just a dice throw away from Hoover Dam, and while it's a magical time at all times of the year, the holiday season is extra special. Here are a few festive things to check out in Las Vegas in December, and be sure to book your stay with us here at Best Western Hoover Dam for comfortable, convenient, and affordable accommodations this holiday season.
 

The Bellagio Fountains

The fountains at the Bellagio Hotel are always spectacular, but the show during Christmas is truly a sight to behold. Make sure to catch the performances set to holiday classics, running throughout the day, every day. And they're free!
 

The Ice Rink at the Cosmopolitan

Glide into a winter wonderland! The Cosmopolitan Hotel transforms its Boulevard Pool into a wintery ice rink that spans more than 4,200 square feet, and open for skating until January 6. While you're there, you can also enjoy roasting smores at the fire pit, watching Christmas movies, catching snow showers (they fall every half hour), or sipping on warm cocktails.
 

Holiday Cactus Garden

It's Christmas in the desert — of course there's cacti! Ethel M. Chocolates’ annual Holiday Cactus Garden celebrates its 25^th anniversary this year, running until January 6. Marvel at more than one million lights illuminating the three acre cactus garden. While you’re there, book a chocolate tasting, visit Santa, and sip on hot cocoa.
