Golden Nugget - the only 4-star hotel downtown.



Just wait'll you see the pool!
Hands Down! The Golden Nugget, I love that hotel - and I love being down town.Next year, we麓re staying downtown when visiting Vegas-where would you stay and why?
hands down--Golden Nugget. It also very reasonable priced for beeing the nicest hotel downtown. The food is the best! They also have a spa.
the golden nugget is the coolest and fanciest hotel, but be sure to get over to the California for Hawaiin dishes like eggs/rice/linguica for breakfast- yum!
golden nugget by a country mile, best hotel downtown, one of the best in the whole of las vegas btw.



i cannot believe you listed Western and gold spike (better to sleep in your car than in those two dumps).



tower rooms at el cortez are nice, main street station and fremont are very decent hotels but golden nugget should be your only choice
I stayed at the Plaza. I wasn't that impressed with it. My next trip I will stay downtown again. I just got back, %26amp; stayed on the Strip. There wasn't anything close, you had to walk a LONG way to get to another casino.
I agree with most everyone that the Golden Nugget is a very nice 4 star hotel. If your main interest is the pool, then I would stay at the GN.



Check out the GN pool

But, my favorite downtown is Main Street Station. That is, if you like to gamble, eat and be treated well.



Main Street Station has much better gambling, especially video poker. MSS is also the best hotel/casino in all of LV for comps. We play a few hours of quarter 9/6 JOB video poker there every day and they give us rooms free and we have never paid for a meal.



MSS has nice rooms and the casino is incredible - They have so many antiques, artifacts and artwork that MSS should qualify as a museum.



Just some of what they have

Fireplace from Preswick Castle - The Pullman Grill restaurant was actually built around the fireplace.



Bronze Doors %26amp; Facade from the Royal bank of Kuwait



Entry doors from the Pullman Mansion



Stained glass %26amp; Chandeliers from all over the world



"Goddess Fortuna" %26gt;beautiful statue



Section of the Berlin Wall



"The Wild Boar" - From Nice France



Several restored rail cars



And many more - MSS has a brochure so that you can locate and identify them all.



The Garden Court buffet is the best value buffet in all of LV for both lunch %26amp; dinner. They don't put as much effort into breakfast.



The Triple 7 brew pub %26amp; restaurant - Great food and $1 draws after Midnight - Their $7 prime rib dinner(after 4pm) is a super bargain, the menu says 8oz, don't believe it, this is a very large, very good steak. Don't order the large(16oz) unless you're an NFL lineman or eat like one.



The Pullman Grille is IMO the best value steakhouse in all of LV - Great food, great service, awesome setting, very reasonable prices. Only open Wednesday through Sunday for dinner.



The people who work at MSS make the hotel as much as the hotel itself.



We go to LV 2-3 times a year for 2 weeks or more at a time and have for over 20 years. We were in LV from 6/4 to 7/5 and stayed at MSS for 11 nights. We are going back in December and they have already comped us 4 nights for New Years.

I would stay at The Golden Nugget because it's a 4 or 5 star hotel. The pool is nice and service is very good.
Gold Spike because it's the cheapest and it's within walking distance of a movie theater.
