Very nice hotel, and the pool is super, the Buffet is ok the best is breckfast and lunch, diner is no that good, the room are very nice.

Our mixed family group (4 rooms) from CA and NY had a great time at the Golden Nugget. We had 2 economy rooms (spacious/nice bathroom/older decor) and 2 gold club rooms (modern, vessel sinks, TV in bathroom mirror, VIP check in with no lines, unlimited bottles of water and snacks, fresh coffee and newspapers in the morning plus a coupon booklet). Very comfy king bed with feather pillows and duvets.

We didn't win but others in the group couldn't lose at slots or black jack...so was a good trip casino wise. (Try the Elvis slots!) Great location with easy access to the Fremont St. activities and casinos. Great for young (lots of free entertainment) and older (close to other casinos, easier walks than on the strip). The Grotto restaurant was divine! Out of 6 of us, not one complaint and lots of compliments! Cannot say the same about the Cafe, would not eat there again..only 3 out of 8 enjoyed their meals (and they ate sandwiches.) Actually tried the breakfast buffet which was Ok especially with a 2 for 1 coupon. Easy free valet (call down ahead and the car will be waiting for you.) Cool pool with slide through shark tank!

Still the best downtown hotel and the new wing will open soon. Just in time for them to fix the rest of the rooms. The carpet is getting worn in the room. I never travel where you have to pay for internet access! 12.99 a day is a bit much for internet. Walls are a bit thin as well. The pillows are hard for my taste. I know it is Vegas, but when you are not winning you go to the room and watch TV. Forget about that at the Nugget. The TV reception is more like they have an old antenna on the roof.

We have just returned from this hotel where we hosted our 20th wedding anniversary party by renewing our vows. Our party co-ordinator Jim Kinsella organised the whole event via email correspondence and it was perfection. Every detail was attended to, the hillarious "Elvis" service, food, bar, decorations, D.J. were fantastic. The wedding we always wanted plus Vegas was just fab. We would have no hesitation in recommending Jim to anyone considering this sort of event.
