premise: Though it requires a 30-minute drive from Tropicana via I-15 (or the free shuttle from New York-New York; Tel. 1-888-424-6898), the Fashion Outlet's selection of top names (Guess, Kenneth Cole, Tommy Hilfiger) and specialty stores (such as Williams Sonoma) make it worth the effort.
hypothesis: The Fashion Outlet is much closer to other large hotels.
