North Las Vegas resort Texas Station offers hospitality and Texas-sized entertainment options, including the Dallas Events Center, a 2,000-seat concert venue, as well as the South Padre nightclub, an 18-screen movie theater and a 60-lane bowling center.
Texas Station boasts the same friendly atmosphere of its sister Vegas establishments (Boulder, Palace, Santa Fe and Sunset Stations — plus, Green Valley Ranch and Red Rock Casino, Resort & Spa), but combines it with the charm, attitude and flavor of the Lone Star State.
At just over 47 acres with a 125,000-square-foot casino, elbow room is plentiful at Texas Station. A wide variety of gaming options — more than 2,000 slot and video poker machines, 27 table games, a 486-seat bingo hall and live keno — make the resort ideal for those looking to challenge lady luck.
Several full-service restaurants — Austins Steakhouse (winner of numerous Las Vegas best steakhouse awards), Texas Star Oyster Bar, the Grand Cafe, a giant buffet and a number of other eateries — provide great dining. Enjoy a drink and piano music at the A-Bar before your dinner or stop by the Martini Bar afterward and have one of their metropolitan cocktails with a Western flavor.
South Padre plays host to live musical acts and has a dance floor. Play billiards in the Splitz Bar. The Dallas Events Center, meanwhile, hosts big-name entertainment.
The entire family will enjoy the 18-screen Regal Cinemas, which offers everything from Hollywood blockbusters to independent films in plush comfort and state-of-the-art dazzle, with stadium seating and THX stereo. And did we mention the 24-hour, 60-lane bowling center that features Cosmic Bowling on Fridays and Saturdays?
There’s a lot to do deep in the heart of Texas. You had better get moseying along, partner, or it’s going to pass you by.
Just three miles from McCarran International Airport and less than a mile from the Las Vegas Strip, the Days Inn Las Vegas at Wild Wild West Gambling Hall offers the proximity you desire without the frenetic pace of the Strip.
There are comfortable rooms that come with a hair dryer, iron and ironing board, and free wireless internet access. All of the suites are non-smoking.
The garden setting and two-story buildings surround a lovely heated pool and Jacuzzi area, perfect for a night of relaxation. The hotel offers a well-trained staff available 24 hours to cater to the needs of the guests. There’s also a 24-hour casino. Plus, you can grab a bite to eat any time of day in the on-site restaurant.
The hotel offers free parking, and children 12 years and younger stay for free with an adult.
Great food, a casino with a 574-seat bingo hall, lots of bars and amenity-filled rooms — it’s no wonder adults love Boulder Station. Plus, kids enjoy the movie theater and a supervised play area.
One of several Station Casinos resorts in Las Vegas, including Sunset, Palace, Santa Fe and Texas Stations as well as Green Valley Ranch and Red Rock Casino, Resort & Spa, Boulder Station has its own distinct look, feel and identity despite being part of a growing family. Located on Boulder Highway, just minutes away from the Strip and downtown, this establishment truly has something for everyone.
First and foremost, the casino, a prodigious 75,000-square-foot gaming floor surrounded by restaurants, bars, a gift shop and attractions, draws an even mix of locals and visitors. The resort’s wooden floors and brick columns display a rustic, comforting appeal that makes guests feel like they’re at home.
Dining choices are plentiful, ranging from the bold Baja flavors of the Cabo Mexican Restaurant to the Feast Buffet, a smorgasbord of freshly prepared dishes including waffles and flambé for dessert. For a more quiet and intimate atmosphere, diners can enjoy fine steaks at The Broiler or Italian food at Pasta Cucina, which offers thin-crust, stone-oven pizza and pasta specialties like manicotti Florentine and Tuscan angel hair.
The Railhead, a centralized lounge, offers dancing and live music performances. The Kids Quest youth activity center presents a fun and dynamic playground for children to explore while their parents enjoy the hotel’s adult diversions — like cocktails at the Havana Lounge, Brewer’s Bar or KIXX. And the 11-screen Regal Cinemas complex is one of the finest movie theaters in town, with comfortable seating, spacious auditoriums and a friendly staff aiming to make any night at the movies an unforgettable one.
In addition, guests will appreciate the recently remodeled rooms. Boasting a boutique hotel feel, each one features elegant wall coverings, fixtures, rich wood furnishings and custom-designed artwork. Among the amenities are a built-in closet, a computer desk, pillow-top mattresses and a 40-inch plasma television with cable service. The bathrooms also boast granite countertops and new light fixtures.
Like its sister establishments, Boulder Station sets its own standards and surpasses them. Small wonder this family is one of the proudest in town.
The Big Easy meets the Entertainment Capital of the World at The Orleans, located just a short drive west of the Las Vegas Strip. From the playful French Quarter-like façade to the alligator-shaped door handles, the soul of New Orleans envelops guests.
Inside, you’ll find bright festive colors, giant Mardi Gras masks hanging from the ceiling and watering holes like the Bourbon Street Cabaret, where you can enjoy a drink and live entertainment.
Of course, Vegas still is very much in evidence with a bustling casino offering slots, video poker and keno machines, a variety of table games, a 19-table nonsmoking poker room that’s open 24 hours a day, and a race and sports book, among its many assets.

Above all, The Orleans offers the entertainment and distinctive charm of its namesake — a place to trade your blues for rhythm and blues, your scowl for a grin, and a bad day for a great evening. Mardi Gras has begun and will never end here. Don’t be surprised if you end up leaving with multicolored strings of beads around your neck!
Kayaking, mountain biking and horseback riding are not the typical activities one associates with a trip to Las Vegas. Then again, Red Rock Casino, Resort and Spa is not the typical Las Vegas hotel.
Just minutes from the dramatic red cliffs of the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area, as well as the exciting action of the Las Vegas Strip, no other resort in Las Vegas capitalizes on its location quite like this one. Along with all the amenities of a highly-rated hotel and casino, this contemporary desert retreat also offers an Adventure Spa program with outdoor activities including river rafting and guided hikes.
This is a high-end, boutique-style property, similar to its sister property, Green Valley Ranch. From its flowing design and unique architecture to its flawless incorporation of state-of-the-art technology, the AAA Four Diamond Award-winning resort rivals many of the major resorts on the Strip, while also maintaining its local appeal.
LCD screens scattered throughout Red Rock Casino, Resort & Spa display ads and restaurant menus, while modern light fixtures brighten the 87,000-square-foot casino floor.

The centerpiece of the property is the three-acre pool complex, which was designed like a theater-in-the-round. Its central location allows for balcony views from several of the property’s restaurants and even the convention space.
Guests can grab a drink at the Onyx or Lucky bars and listen to live music in Rocks Lounge.

Plus, Lucille’s Smokehouse Bar-B-Que has huge portions of delicious Southern-style barbecue, Hearthstone prepares rustic American kitchen fare and The Wiener’s Circle is a Chicago-style hot dog stand that also serves fresh cut fries, milkshakes and breakfast all day long.

Overall, this is a sophisticated property for discriminating guests who want something a bit different, but still want everything Las Vegas has to offer. At Red Rock Casino, Resort & Spa, you’ll enjoy a relaxing and exhilarating retreat.
It might be safe to say that Caesars Palace is synonymous with Las Vegas. Its lavish rooms, splendorous pools, world-class shopping, extravagant entertainment, gourmet dining and hot nightlife continue to define just what “doing Vegas” is all about.
Unlike many of its contemporaries that have been imploded into dust over the years — Caesars Palace opened in 1966 — the resort continues to innovate and reinvent itself without sacrificing that classic Rome-via-Vegas atmosphere: unparalleled service, majestic surroundings and a true circus maximus of diversions.
Where should one even begin? That’s easy…with the stellar entertainment. Continuing to raise the bar for shows in Vegas, Caesars Palace offers incredible headliner productions — starring Celine Dion, Elton John, Rod Stewart, Mariah Carey and Reba with Brooks & Dunn and several other music and comedy legends — in its voluminous show venue the Colosseum. An edgy, circus-style show for adults, “Absinthe” has also pitched its tent-style theater in front of the Roman Empire.
There are several cool bars to chill out in at the resort. Cleopatra’s Barge, the luxurious floating lounge, transports you back to the time of Julius Caesar. The Seahorse Lounge houses a 1,700-gallon aquarium filled with Australian pot belly seahorses at its entrance. A bar and lounge called Fizz Las Vegas serves high-end champagnes by the glass or bottle along with exquisite choices of caviar, charcuterie and small plates. Vista Cocktail Lounge combines custom-crafted cocktails along with LED portals that showcase panoramic views from around the world.
Boasting an ornately designed domed four-story roof, the luxurious Omnia Nightclub houses a seductive ultra lounge, a high-energy main room with one of the largest dance floors in Vegas, a mezzanine with private booths and a breathtaking rooftop garden. There’s also an impressive roster of DJs spinning here.
The ever-growing list of amazing dining options — in both the casino and the renowned shopping mecca that is the The Forum Shops at Caesars — features celebrity chefs like Bobby Flay with his Southwestern fare at Mesa Grill, Michel Richard of Central and Guy Savoy. Guests can also enjoy rare delights from the likes of Sushi Roku or for less adventurous palettes, there are comfort-food options like The Cheesecake Factory. The Old Homestead Steakhouse, a venerable New York City steakhouse, serves up its iconic cuts of meat and classic sides at the resort. The Gordon Ramsay Pub & Grill offers an array of British-oriented food from lamb T-bone to fish and chips as well as have a striking bar with 36 beers on tap and 24 bottled beers. Searsucker is known for its cowboy attitude and signature items such as the 38-ounce bone-in ribeye tomahawk. The Bacchanal Buffet is a 25,000-square-foot homage to eating.
Of course, before high-class shopping and gourmet restaurants, Caesars Palace was known as the casino in Las Vegas for anyone who is anyone to throw around their cash. And the 129,000-square-foot casino continues to be a prime destination for high rollers, celebrities and those looking to become either of the two. Excitement is always on tap in 62-table poker room and throughout the fast-paced race and sports book.
Even mere mortals can experience service and amenities worthy of the Olympian gods, from the artisan-like hair, skin and nail treatments available at Color salon run by Michael Boychuck to the 55,000-square-foot Qua Baths & Spa, which is known for its signature Roman bath rituals.
Caesars Palace boasts five room towers. The spacious rooms in its Augustus and Octavius towers are known as The Laurel Collection. They provide an elevated guest experience with added luxuries like a unique hotel app, a dedicated service staff and direct access to the Garden of the Gods pool oasis.
The world’s first Nobu Hotel has also opened inside the resort. Created by celebrity chef Nobu Matsuhisa, the 181-room boutique property offers a distinctly Japanese experience in the heart of the Las Vegas Strip. On the ground floor of Caesars Palace, it boasts the world’s largest Nobu Restaurant and Lounge, at 12,775 square feet. In addition to a sushi bar, private dining areas, an open kitchen and two chef’s tables, this is the only Nobu restaurant in the world to have three sizzling teppanyaki tables.
If you crave the maximum Vegas experience, there simply is no argument more compelling than one night’s stay at Caesars Palace. Don’t take our word for it. See for yourself.
An off-Strip property, Palace Station serves locals and tourists with great food, comedy acts, affordable rooms and much more.
Originally the “The Casino,” Palace Station paved the way for the rest of the Station Casinos properties. The acclaimed Sunset, Texas, Santa Fe and Boulder Station hotels as well as Green Valley Ranch and Red Rock Casino, Resort & Spa wouldn’t exist if not for the dazzling success of this establishment. And the driving forces behind Palace Station are constantly refining and building on their good fortune for the benefit of their guests.
The accommodations here are spacious and just minutes from the Las Vegas Strip, offering choices that run the gamut from comfort to class. Rooms and suites in the 21-story Luxury Tower boast a sophisticated, modern décor and upgraded amenities, including flat-screen televisions, work areas and top-notch bath products. The courtyard rooms are clean, comfortable and convenient with plenty of amenities. And guests won’t have to trek through the casino upon check-in because all rooms and suites are easily accessible from the lobby and parking garage.
Palace Station’s casino virtually crackles with charged excitement, with more than 1,600 slot machines, 44 table games,a 307-seat bingo room and an Asian games area featuring pai gow tiles. There is also a high-limit slots area, an expansive race and sports book and a nonsmoking poker room. Those who come to Palace Station not to stay, but to play, will enjoy the convenience of a separate casino valet, located with easy access to the casino floor.
The dining at Palace Station is as diverse and rich as Las Vegas itself. The Charcoal Room steakhouse features a menu including top-grade cuts of beef, market select fresh seafood and appetizers like creamed corn au gratin.

There’s something for everyone at the Feast Buffet as well. Guests can also grab a triple grande latte or other drink of choice at the Starbucks off the lobby.

Although Palace Station is located just off the Strip, complimentary shuttles run daily between the hotel and the Fashion Show mall on the Strip. Guests will also enjoy shuttle service to the airport. A concierge desk is available in the lobby to help with show or other travel arrangements.
Palace Station is willing, ready and able to make everyone feel right at home in Las Vegas.

Plus, guests will enjoy things like booking shows and making restaurant reservations with a concierge touchscreen option.
Adjacent to The LINQ Promenade, the open-air shopping, dining and entertainment district anchored by the High Roller observation wheel, The LINQ Hotel & Casino boasts many amenities and a fun atmosphere that make it an important part of the center Strip.

With first-class accommodations and a slew of acclaimed chefs, The Palazzo is the perfect respite for those seeking a taste of the finer things in life. From a three-story Barneys New York to a beautiful waterfall atrium, the resort is always striving to reach new heights in the hospitality industry.
As the largest LEED-certified building in the world, the resort is also committed to the environment. During the construction of The Palazzo, some 70 percent of waste materials were recycled, diverting nearly 42,000 tons from the landfill. Numerous green initiatives regarding recycling, energy, lighting, water, air quality and cleaning products are also in place here.
Combined with The Venetian and the Sands Expo and Convention Center, The Palazzo is among the largest hotel and convention complexes in the world. The two hotels are connected by The Grand Canal Shoppes at The Venetian | The Palazzo, an 875,000-square-foot multilevel shopping complex with approximately 160 high-end stores — including Barneys — and water features like The Palazzo’s stunning Waterfall Atrium and The Venetian’s indoor canal. Amenities at The Palazzo and The Venetian are interchangeable, and together the properties boast the most James Beard award-winning restaurants under one roof.
A cathedral ceiling majestically tops the casino, while a second 80-foot dome floods the lobby with natural light. With 139 types of games, as well as countless slot and video poker machines, the casino floor itself lacks the stale smell of cigarette smoke typically found in Las Vegas casinos. As a property certified by Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED), smoking is off limits for the majority of The Palazzo — including 50 percent of the casino floor.
The resort’s 3,066 all-suite rooms start at 720 square feet and are decorated with a modern Italian style. They provide all the comforts of home along with the luxuries of a high-class hotel, and include sunken living rooms, remote-controlled draperies, multiple flat-screen TVs and Roman tubs. The Prestige Suites, located on the 23rd floor, offer enhanced VIP treatment with a champagne check-in and access to an exclusive lounge where a complimentary breakfast, hors d’oeuvres and cocktails are served.

Carnaval-inspired SushiSamba unites Brazilian flavors, Peruvian tastes and Japanese technique. Chef Mario Batali’s Carnevino is for connoisseurs of aged beef, and chef Emeril Lagasse’s Table 10, inspired by his flagship New Orleans restaurant, showcases bold Creole cooking.

The Stratosphere Casino, Hotel & Tower has become a one-of-a-kind landmark in the Vegas skyline and, at 1,149 feet high, its tower is the spot for the ultimate view of Las Vegas. But offering a spectacular view, the highest thrill rides in the country, a bevy of dining options and a variety of accommodations, is just the beginning.
The Stratosphere’s casino is nearly as impressive an entity as the tower. It’s one of the larger gaming floors in town and is constantly updated with state-of-the-art slot machines and video technology. Plus, there’s an action-packed race and sports book and a 24-hour poker room with eight tables.
The Stratosphere also boasts a grand front entrance with valet service. There are 2,427 rooms, mostly in the Premier Tower. More than 900 rooms (called the Stratosphere Select) were recently remodeled and feature modern décor, flat-screen televisions, MP3 alarm clocks, 240-thread-count bedding, elegant furnishings and upgraded bathroom floors and vanities.
A variety of dining experiences awaits guests of the Stratosphere. Off the casino floor, you can enjoy a sock hop atmosphere at Roxy’s Diner or the charm and tastes of Old World Italy at Fellini’s Ristorante Italiano. McCall’s Heartland Grill offers steak and seafood with a Midwestern style. Try plate after plate of global cuisine at the Stratosphere’s sumptuous buffet. And at Top of the World, indulge in delicious eclectic cuisine while seeing the entire city of Las Vegas from your table. The restaurant’s floor rotates, giving guests an exceptional 360-degree view, featuring Mount Charleston, the Las Vegas Strip and beyond.
After dining at the Top of the World, head upstairs to the Level 107 Lounge. It features live music, great cocktails, appetizers and beautiful views. You can also grab a drink at AirBar on Level 108. You might see an occasional person fly by. Don’t worry, you haven’t had too much alcohol. SkyJump, a great attraction for thrill seekers who aren’t afraid of heights, is also located on Level 108. Adventurous visitors are strapped into a harness, attached to the “descender machine” and step off a narrow platform only to plunge 855 feet straight down.
In addition to SkyJump, the Stratosphere boasts a number of other hair-raising attractions including the Big Shot, a seated, shorter but equally thrilling ride, and X Scream, which extends you over the ledge of the Stratosphere Tower — and leaves you there. The stop is only for a few seconds, but it’s long enough to make you appreciate attractions on the first floor. A fourth ride is called Insanity-The Ride. Nothing more need be said!
After enjoying the day sampling the resort’s many attractions, spend your evening at a show like “MJ Live,” a Michael Jackson tribute.
Shop-aholics will find great deals in the Tower Shops, and those who enjoy being pampered can visit the Roni Josef Salon and Spa. Seasonally, there’s the lovely eighth-floor Level 8 Pool where you can catch some rays on an expansive deck, and the the 25th-floor Radiusº Rooftop Pool & Wet Lounge (closed for the season) where you can enjoy great views and the daily Sunset Happy Hour.
Whether it’s great heights, great attractions or a great show you’re looking for, the Stratosphere has an abundance of amenities to enjoy.
Arguably one of the hippest, most rollicking joints in town, the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino houses Vegas’ hottest concert venue and pool complex along with some chic nightspots, restaurants and retail outlets.
It’s all about the music here. From guitar-shaped door handles to a saxophone chandelier, every element of the resort worships at the altar of rock. The coolest collection of music memorabilia is enshrined on its walls and along its hallways. Check out jackets from Aerosmith, the Ramones and U2. There are also motorcycles, drum kits, countless autographed guitars and outrageous costumes worn by Madonna, Christina Aguilera, Elton John, Joan Jett and Billy Idol.
All of this memorabilia just scratches the surface of the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino’s devotion to the spirit of rock ‘n’ roll. The entire resort — from the original structure built in 1995 to the all-suite HRH Tower added on in 2010 — has a hedonistic atmosphere reminiscent of a backstage bacchanal. At night, the casino’s Luxe Bar serve as ground zero for the parade of beautiful people. Vanity nightclub is also here, but is only open to public for special events and parties. It sports decadent décor elements including hand-cut crystals, rubbed brass and black chrome.
The resort’s crowning achievement, however, is The Joint. Steely Dan, the Ramones, Sting, Green Day, Ringo Starr, Duran Duran, Ozzy Osbourne, the Rolling Stones and many more smoked the original venue. A larger, state-of-the-art concert facility by the same name has since opened to carry the torch. It seats 4,000 people and offers a sound, lighting and video system that puts all others to shame. A smaller live music venue called Vinyl has also opened its doors. Emanating a speakeasy atmosphere, it has an industrial look and features a variety of bands.
Outside, the pool area, dubbed “Beachlife” and consisting of three separate pools (Nirvana Pool, Breathe Pool and Paradise Beach) is lush beyond belief with sandy beaches, tropical palms, private cabanas and swim-up blackjack, all accommodating the bronzed bodies who have made it the place to see and be seen. During the summer, the best revelry in the city takes place at Rehab. The Hard Rock Hotel originated this ultimate daytime pool party, where guests enjoy something akin to spring break debauchery.
Dining runs the gamut at the resort — from cosmopolitan to classic yet cutting edge. For instance, Nobu serves up modern Japanese cuisine and Fú has a unique fusion of Asian fare, while 35 Steaks + Martinis offers a cutting-edge take on traditional steakhouse cuisine. Culinary Dropout, a trendy gastropub by Sam Fox, provides another fabulous eating experience. Pink Taco cooks up Mexican favorites with a California flair. Plus, Mr. Lucky’s Café is the ultimate 24-hour coffee shop with a modern attitude. You never know who will walk in after a concert, and the off-the-menu special (the $7.77 plate of steak and shrimp) is sure to satisfy any meat-lover’s appetite.
Body-conscious guests will be pleased to discover a fully equipped fitness center, one that is much larger than you’d usually find at a hotel gym. Relaxation is also on the menu at the Reliquary Spa. With treatments like a Russian deep tissue massage, an Asian healing massage, a Turkish ritual and a Fijian body scrub, you’ll feel as if you’ve traveled all around the world.
Truly a Vegas original, the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino must be seen — and heard — to be believed. For the young, hip and trendy, this is an ideal place to kick off your Vegas party.
A 24-hour party atmosphere reverberates through the vibrant red, purple and blue neon towers of the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino, where large suites, ample entertainment and popular dining combine for the ultimate off-Strip experience.
Meals at the Rio are as exciting and rich as the colorful surroundings. One of the most beloved buffets in Las Vegas — the Carnival World & Seafood Buffet — delivers on its moniker, offering the delicious fare of just about every ethnicity. Another must-try eatery in the Rio includes KJ Dim Sum & Seafood Chinese Restaurant. Hash House A Go Go has a home-style atmosphere. It serves breakfast, lunch, brunch and dinner items that are delivered in oversized portions.
No Vegas vacation would be complete without a show, so take in the sleight-of-hand and gross-out grand illusions of magical duo Penn & Teller. Ladies will find it hard to keep their hands to themselves when the well-greased male dancers of Chippendales rip off one tank top after another. And men will also be enthralled with the beautiful ladies and sexy choreography in the topless revue “X Rocks.”
The all-male wait staff at Flirt Lounge, located in the lobby of the Chippendales Theatre, keeps the “Ultimate Girls Night” experience going strong with its full menu of exotic concoctions. Both men and women will delight in amazing views of Las Vegas from the VooDoo Rooftop Nightclub, located on the 51st story of the resort’s Masquerade Tower. High-tech fun and cool cocktails also await in the iBar.
Whether watching a flair bartender prepare Brazilian-inspired drinks with a smile or the expert gaming dealers distribute cards, this resort exudes high-energy fun.

Taking off from the VooDoo Rooftop Nightclub, located atop the hotel’s 50-story Masquerade Tower, guests can cascade toward the Ipanema Tower, reaching speeds up to 33 miles per hour while enjoying beautiful views of the Las Vegas Strip.
So get in the Carnaval spirit and head to the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino. Like its namesake in South America, this is a true cidade maravilhosa — a marvelous city — in the middle of the desert.
At the Excalibur in Las Vegas, guests will find contemporary rooms, a busy casino, party-like dining experiences, a knightly show and more, all housed in a gigantic castle.
Set majestically between the skyline of New York-New York and the Egyptian pyramid of Luxor at the intersection of Tropicana Avenue and Las Vegas Boulevard on the Strip, guests at the Excalibur can discover much more than knights and armor in this hotel.

Recently, the resort completed a $160 million remodel to upgrade all of its rooms and suites, has added a brand new nightclub and several new restaurants.
Entertainment is plentiful with several options in a variety of unique venues. The Cirque du Soleil show “KÀ” takes audiences on a heroic journey that will feel like the latest blockbuster movie. A lineup of renowned performers come to the David Copperfield Theatre, while some of rock ‘n’ roll’s greatest acts, from the Rolling Stones to U2, take the stage in the Grand Garden Arena — also home to many highly touted championship boxing events. And Brad Garrett’s Comedy Club offers plenty of laughs.

North Las Vegas is the latest hot spot in Southern Nevada. One of the hottest spots in that area is the Cannery Casino and Hotel. Near Nellis Air Force Base and the popular Las Vegas Motor Speedway, the Cannery bills itself as a “resort destination.” It’s hard to argue with that – especially for those who’ve come for the races.
This hotel has 200 rooms, an elegant palm-bordered pool and Jacuzzi and 24-hour room service. The casino level offers six restaurants and two bars with nightly live entertainment.
As you might guess from the names of the bars – Pin-Ups Lounge and Victory’s Bar & Grill – the Cannery goes for a WWII-vintage canning factory atmosphere, from the extensive use of brick to the illustrations of ’40s models on the blackjack tables.
The 75,000-square-foot gaming area offers over 1,650 slot and video poker machines and 20 table games. There are weekly blackjack tournaments and free gaming lessons on weekend mornings. The property recently open a brand new race and sports book, a poker room offering 2 tables including low- and medium-limit Texas Hold’em, Omaha and 7-Card Stud and a 288 seat bingo room.
The signature restaurant is Waverly’s Steak House, showcasing dark wood tones and still-life paintings that give it the look of a ’40s-style plant manager’s office. There’s also the Cannery Row Buffet featuring BBQ lunch and dinner, Casa Cocina for Mexican and margaritas and the All-American, 24-hour Victory’s Cafe. Try Vino’s Italian Restorante and Deli for a taste of Italy in your own backyard.
The Cannery also features Galaxy Luxury Movie Theaters with 16 screens, a large indoor/outdoor entertainment and exhibit venue that accommodates up to 3,000 people for concerts, festivals, motor sports exhibits and boxing matches.
Just six miles from the Strip, Sam’s Town Hotel & Gambling Hall is nestled in the shadow of the Sunrise Mountains in Las Vegas and boasts more than 600 rooms, decorated in a Southwestern theme.
Taking what was a calculated risk for 1979, father and son Sam and Bill Boyd opened Sam’s Town. Their goal was to create an environment where locals would feel comfortable playing. More than three decades in business, Sam’s Town has become an indispensable stop for locals and visitors alike.
Rooms are built around a truly spectacular indoor atrium, Mystic Falls Park, that must be seen to be believed. With a nine-story glass roof and a 25,000-square-foot indoor area filled with trees, waterfalls and footpaths, it is one of Las Vegas’ unique surprises.
The restaurants here are among the town’s most popular. The extensive menu at The Angry Butcher, featuring huge steaks with all the fixin’s is as delicious as they come. T.G.I. Friday’s has an outpost in Sam’s Town, as do several fast food eateries including McDonald’s, Panda Express and Subway.
The free “Sunset Stampede,” a dancing waters and laser show, dazzles crowds nightly. Dozens of other amenities — including a 56-lane bowling center, an 18-screen movie theater, an arcade, Gatsby’s Salon and the Sam’s Town Live entertainment complex — serve only to complement what is still one of the most popular locals’ casinos, with three separate floors of round-the-clock gaming action, a fine race and sports book, a lively bingo hall and a poker room.
Among the hotel amenities are free daily shuttle service to the Strip and downtown, a pool, laundry services and a rental car desk. There are even two RV parks with a total of more than 500 spacious spots.
It may not be on the Strip or in the heart of downtown, but Sam’s Town is still every bit the quintessential Las Vegas experience. Missing this resort is to miss the frontier spirit that built Las Vegas from the dust in the first place.
**Construction on the hotel will commence on May 29 and last until October 1, 2017. Don’t be alarmed if you hear a little more noise than usual. And the Mystic Falls Park will be closed from April 17 – May 17. When you arrive, the front desk will alert you of said construction and will answer any questions you may have.**
