We spent four nights at this amazing hotel. They have really upped their game. The Prime Rib special at Siegel 1941 was perfect. They even still had Rare late at night. The Hot Dog Cart also hit the spot for a snack. Our room was cleaned everyday. We witnessed both Lady Luck HQ and Vegas Matt win multiple jackpots on different nights.

"2nd time here"
TripAdvisor user rating 4.0 out of 5
Reviewed January 21, 2026
My other review was when we just played slots and didn't stay at the hotel. This time we decided to stay. We stayed in a Premium Tower Room with a mountain view, and the room was better than we expected. It was very spacious, clean, and we really appreciated the vinyl flooring instead of carpet. I was a little concerned it might smell like smoke, but there was no smoke smell at all. The bathroom was large with a roomy walk-in shower, and the bed was very comfortable with plenty of pillows. We stayed for three nights and were never bothered by noise — it was quiet the entire time. Having a Starbucks and a gift shop on-site was convenient for morning coffee and late-night snacks. We ate at Siegel’s Restaurant our first night. The food was great, but the service was a bit slow. After being seated, it took about 10–15 minutes before anyone acknowledged us, which was frustrating, especially since servers walked by without saying anything. We also noticed several tables needed to be cleared, while hostesses seemed to wander around or stand up front instead of helping. I even wanted to say, “Go clean that table!” haha. That might explain why the wait staff seemed stretched thin. That said, we had the Prime Rib special for $19.99 on two nights, and it was excellent. We also had breakfast one morning, and Jorge was our waiter — he was incredibly friendly and very attentive. Slots: We pretty much stayed on-site the whole time playing slots because the playbacks kept us going. On our last night, I hit two jackpots — one on a $3 bet and a larger one on a $1 bet! Staff: Adam, the manager, is always friendly and personable. We spoke with several employees on the casino floor who have worked there for 40 years or more, which says a lot about how well they’re treated. Everyone was nice, welcoming, and genuinely pleasant. Overall, we had a great stay and will definitely stay here again.

"Use the boarding pass deal for free play"
TripAdvisor user rating 4.0 out of 5
Reviewed January 19, 2026
We didn’t stay here (yet! but we will!). We come here to splash and to specifically make use of their generous boarding pass free play. If you show them your recent Southwest Airlines boarding pass and you have or get a players club card, you get a free drink, slot play and a $25 match play for blackjack. So far we are 3 for 3 on BJ winnings on their money. We really loved the new look of the casino. Nicely done remodel! And they kept the coin in machines, love that so much! We will be back and will stay in one of the original rooms next time!
