The short version

What visitors say about Golden Nugget Las Vegas Hotel & Casino

The Golden Nugget has anchored Fremont Street for decades, and its best known feature is the Tank, the pool with a water slide running through a shark aquarium. Check on it before you book. Several recent guests arrived to find the pool closed for maintenance, including people who had planned their trip around it.

Rooms in the Gold and Rush towers get good reviews, the restaurants on site are well liked, and one longtime player praises the poker room. Rooms facing Fremont take the full force of the nightly concerts, which can run past 1 a.m., and the hotel hands out earplugs for a reason. The casino is big and smoky. Check in runs through kiosks with long lines and thin staffing, and maintenance complaints cover weak showers, balky toilets and faulty lights. A couple of players found the slots tight.

Excellent rooms in the Gold Tower! The establishment has everything you need from excellent restaurants, shopping and casino. The concierge and taxi line service is incredible.

The Golden Nugget, one of the few infamous hotels that Hawaii locals venture.

It's cheap in prices depending on the daily rates (as rates do fluctuate daily.)

But the room we had was nice and I wouldn't mind coming here. Now... to me, some people are okay with bringing their kids here, but as a forewarning, the Golden…

One of the original stars of Fremont Street it’s still a standard. The rooms are really nice the styles a bit dated but really functional good room.

The Golden Nugget Las Vegas off of Fremont Street is a really great hotel to stay in if you're going to this part of Las Vegas. I had never been and decided to try it at least once. It's not my favorite part of the trip. It's probably the

The hotel was nice enough. Be cognizant that the casino is large and smoking is permitted. Also be aware that bands will likely be playing in the evening and you will likely hear them. Although the hotel is considerate in providing earplugs, you may not get a sound sleep, should you require that.

If you don't mind…

We had a great experience at Golden Nugget last year, so we decided to return this year with our toddler son. Unfortunately, this visit was very different from our previous experience.

We had problems right from the check-in process. There was only one staff member assisting guests at the kiosks, and she appeared to…

Mine and my husband’s phones were stolen from the Golden Nuggets “ secure “ pool.

We stayed at this hotel for a trip where my son was proposing to his girlfriend of 4 years. Her parents and two sister came to surprise her at the proposal.
