The hotel

Boasting some of Las Vegas’ finest rooms and suites after a $380 million dollar transformation, it’s easy to understand why. The accommodation is divided between four majestic towers with wonderful views of the Las Vegas Strip, the Spring Mountains and the hotel’s incredible pool. Then there's the Tank, as the swimming complex is known, comes complete with a shark tank, 3-storey waterslide and 13 private cabanas for hire. There’s also an infinity pool, aptly named The Hideout, which is strictly for adults only. Other temptations include a superb spa with steam rooms, sauna, massage and beauty treatments plus a state-of-the-art fitness centre to work off those American-sized portions! Several restaurants are at your disposal, including Vic and Anthony’s, one of the country’s finest steakhouses. Alternatively, head to Chart House for sumptuous seafood, Red for Pan-Asian cuisine or Grotto for Italian fare. Come sundown, Troy Liquor Bar is the place to be with a lively atmosphere, DJs and exotic cocktails. An incredible hotel with an incredible range of amenities, look out in particular for the Hand of Faith in the lobby - a 61-pound gold nugget found in Australia in 1980 with a metal detector just six inches below ground – now that’s Lady Luck at her finest!

This experience truly deserved a review. My husband and I booked a getaway just the two of us for some rest & relaxation in Vegas - to take in a concert. Vegas has a lot to offer for accommodation choices - we did our research. I work within the hotel industry - so I have options with my own brand for discounts. We picked the GN based on a few criteria: reviews and location. We planned the rest of our itinerary around the hotel. We arrived at 1:30am- the free parking was full due to the pool party. We had to pay for Valet parking - we were exhausted and just wanted to sleep after 24 hours of travelling from Canada. We arrived in the room, the shower didn’t work- trickle of water, rusted tub, phone didn’t work - we went to sleep exhausted and frustrated. Not the best first experience in Vegas for my husband. I woke up around 5am - went down to the desk. THIS is where the GN truly stepped up. I explained very nicely to the manger on duty our situation. I didn’t get mad, throw things - swear at her - just simply explained what happened and gave the GN an opportunity to meet us halfway due to the situation. They immediately moved us to another room - an upgrade by far and removed our resort fee which would cover the cost of the valet. Way to go Golden Nugget. In customer service, we cannot prevent these issues from happening but we sure can try our best when presented with the problem. This is exactly what they did! Amazing customer service! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! The MacDonalds Read less

Dirtiest, dingiest, most disgusting hotel I have ever visited and stayed. Was in Vegas for a convention for three days. Hotel is very dated and very dirty.

Dirtiest, dingiest, most disgusting hotel I have ever visited and stayed. Was in Vegas for a convention for three days. Hotel is very dated and very dirty. In a bad part of town with many, unfortunately, homeless people on the streets. In and around hotel parking garage smelled of urine. Exterior of all hotel entrances were very dirty and unkept. My king room’s carpet was dirty and the bathroom tub didn’t drain properly and was chipped and rusting badly. Had a maintenance issue with the window blind and maintenance never came after calling to put in a ticket. I would never return to this property. Look elsewhere for a place to stay. If you need to be in the downtown Vegas area for some reason stay at the Circa which is leaps and bounds cleaner and nicer. Read less

As my visit to Las Vegas comes to an end, I wanted to give a five star rating to the AWESOME staff at Golden Nugget. This go-around, we requested the Carson Tower, away from the noise of the Fremont Experience. We had the fabulous wahine from the Windward side of O’ahu (didn’t catch her name, but she worked Sunday 07/20 in the afternoon with another wahine from O’ahu). She checked us in and was so great, despite having to deal with a jackass guest before us (we saw him, he was yelling & rude af). Our rooms were perfect! No microwave or refrigerator, but ice machine close by works amazing! Bed comfortable, a/c perfect, bathroom great! Slept like a baby! Doorman from Maui - always helpful when we went in & out. All of them - super nice & fun. Las Vegas tourism is very down now and prices are high, so people will choose hotels carry. I would not hesitate to recommend the Golden Nugget, especially for those from the 808. Glad to know our transplanted Hawaiians continue to spread the aloha🌺🌺🌺 Many thanks to your staff! Read less

Big changes from the last visit to the Golden Nugget. There is no longer a front desk, everything is automated with kiosk. There is/was one person who help guide you though the process if you needed help. The lack of human contact was disappointing, but for me the kiosk was not difficult and mostly painless. I was there about an hour before check in, not crowded at that time. It prorated the early check in fee printed my keys and I was on my way. However not the case later, the lines were just as long as they had been in the past. Any communication I had was via text message, this seemed to work pretty well as I had to change rooms due to some issues, this was prompt and happened quickly. At the end of the trip, some billing issues prevailed but they quickly addressed and handled to my satisifaction. This was the 1st time I stayed in the Gold Tower, definitely an improvement over Carson tower. My room was clean and quiet. The elevators required a key card and will only let you go to your floor, pretty good security from that perspective. Close to the casino and access to Fremont St. "Personal Opinion" This should be an adult property, I cant understand the appeal for a small child. Expecially out late night early morning hours. Overall a good expierence. Read less
