Golden Nugget Las Vegas

We stayed 6 nights in the Scarlet Suites, Gold Tower. The first room was 1027, the second 1227. Both rooms shared the master bathroom wall with the ice machine. Both rooms had mold damage from the ice machine. My kiddo and I became very sick in our first room after two days. I lost two days of the work I went there for due to migraine and coughing. The bathroom wall was saturated in black mold to the point the wallpaper fell away on its own. The keurigs in both rooms had mold in the filter screens. The first bathrooms toilet had mold. As for the hotel overall, it was a great location. The restaurants were good. I felt safe. The mold though. It ruined the last half of our trip. They comped our upgrade fees and resort fees for the inconvenience. I would consider trying the Rush tower next time. Its newer. Also, for people who like quiet...this is not the place for you. I didnt mind the noise. I slept with provided earplugs.

I purchased the Rush Tower, Penthouse for my daughter's 21st Birthday. That was 15 years ago, but I'll never forget the amazing room, high vaulted ceiling, with windows from floor to roof, a bathroom so large it has 2 doors, poolside bar and a cabana with a giant bed and misters. The pool slide travels down through the shark tank and is an most will never experience. The food is excellent and reasonably priced. The gaming is fun as there's always a good vibe, a lot of machine payout noise, and people celebrating their big win. My daughter died since then and Im so glad I spent a little extra to make her 21st BD the best. I have so many great memories spending time together at the Golden Nugget. Nevada residents used to be allowed to swim free, so we visited often. The don't have the little shrimp cocktails for .99 any longer - I asked a bartender for one and he had no idea what I was talking about, and he worked at the Nugget for 11 years. It was shocking to hear - time passes so fast and you never know when the ones you love the most won't be with you any longer. Make every second count. Ive stayed at the rest and I find the Nugget one of the best. Thank you Golden Nugget for 60 years of cherished memories.

The Golden Nugget Las Vegas off of Fremont Street is a really great hotel to stay in if you're going to this part of Las Vegas. I had never been and decided to try it at least once. It's not my favorite part of the trip. It's probably the worst part of the trip, but the hotel was amazing. The room that we selected was incredible. It was in the rush tower and had 1.5 bathrooms, updated furnishings, a much brighter room than the typical rooms at Golden Nugget, it was a corner room with lots of Windows! There were two entrances. It was a beautiful suite! You had a huge living room on one side with a kitchen and a huge bedroom with a huge sitting area on the other side. It was just a very beautiful room! I will say that we ate at the saltgrass in the hotel the first night and it was truly delicious and the wait staff and everyone there was super kind. I would like to mention that for a hotel of this size I found the pool extremely small and the fact that the highly advertised shark tank in the middle of the pool was closed or drained or I don't know what they were doing with. It made it incredibly less flattering. The clientele is something that you would normally see off of Fremont Street which I think is very different from the clientele of the strip. But like I said, if you like this area of Las Vegas, this would be a great place to stay but only if you get this particular room because we did see some others and I think the colors are very outdated. Rooms here tend to be very dark and dungeon-like and for someone who prefers bright and well-lit areas then the suite that we got was perfect! One particular thing to note is that if you prefer quiet hotels, I would be a little weary about staying at this hotel because since it's right on Fremont, you can hear the bass and the people talking on loudspeakers because Fremont Street has a party atmosphere, which is great if you like that kind of thing or if you're not bothered by that kind of thing, but if a base bothers you then I don't think this would be a good place for you. They do give you ear plugs. They supply you with ear plugs in your room. So that was great. I can tell you that I am very sensitive to noise and it kind of bothered me at first but they don't play all night. So if asked if I would stay here again I guess the more appropriate question would be would I ever stay off Fremont Street again? And my answer would be no. I didn't really care for the environment off of Fremont but the hotel was okay!

I come a few times a year and last visit decided to try out Golden Nugget. Had such a phenomenal time that I rebooked a month later. When I booked back in September, I called to verify the pool would be open. I was told it would be. Booked for a week. This was a special trip as it was my anniversary and I was proposing. We arrive to find out the pool is closed for the whole week we were there. Some kind of communication would've been nice. Very disappointing as we planned to spend alot of downtime relaxing in the pool. On top of that, the toilet in the room we were in did not work. You had flush multiple times for anything to go down. It couldn't even flush TP on one go. Dealing with that for a week was not great. Add to that, my new fiance and I were hoping to work out together. We get there and were told she was not in proper gym apparel. Shes brought her normal gym apparel. A tennis skirt (which has compression shorts under) and a normal gym t-shirt. She didnt want to have to buy new clothes when there should have been no issue. I ended up working out alone and saw so many women with only small compression shorts and a sports bra. How is that OK but a tennis skirt is not?? Maid service was nice and food reservations we had in the nugget were also very good. I doubt anything will come of this but I felt compelled to say something. It's upsetting what was supposed to be a memorable week ended up being weighed down by a bad stay.

The hotel’s website pictures don’t represent a room in the Carson Tower accurately. Our room furnishings were outdated, such as the bamboo style dresser. The bathtub was scuffed up and the shower handle had to be rigged to turn on the water. The tv remote only worked some of the time. We could hear lots of noise, music, etc. throughout the night. The pool was open but the aquarium and slide were closed and apparently will be all swim season. This happened after we booked our room so we didn’t find out until we checked in but still had to pay the full resort fees. The ac worked great! The bed was comfortable and the room was spacious.
