Las Vegas Insider Blog! : June

How Do We Get to Downtown Las Vegas Exactly? (…and Why Should We Go?)
Freemont Street and Downtown Las Vegas have built hefty reputations on the traditional casino atmosphere of the past. People who haven’t gone downtown recently often misconstrue it to be a dusty and obsolete row of “old casino’s,” but this simply isn’t the case. The entire downtown experience has been modernized without sacrificing the old style Vegas charm.

The 2010 version of Downtown Las Vegas has reflected a decades worth of repairs, renovations, new designs and new businesses. Not every single idea has flourished, and not every location took off, but downtown as a whole looks like it is actually in great shape, especially during the summer month of June. Live music, artwork, outdoor festivities and dancing fill the streets with smiling and curious faces every week.

If you haven’t been to Downtown Las Vegas lately I would recommend a full tour through the Golden Nugget, where lush lounges like Rush and Gold Diggers, offer comfort that exceeds the norm. Juicy slots and lively tables adorn an open casino floor right beside the street. The spacious and beautiful pool area at the ‘Nugget compliments the entire hotel. It looks fresh and more inviting than many of the uptown pools. Attached is also a giant aquarium with exotic fish, sharks and luminescent life of all kinds swimming right beside the hotel guests! There’s also a slide that will whip you right through the center all of it, into a cool splash during these hot summer months!

Even VIPs can find quite a bit of entertainment and style downtown. They often find that the feel to Downtown Vegas is much different than stuffiness of the uptown casinos. People are a loose, they can gamble longer and later, and it seems like a block party that never ends. Booking a room downtown is simple enough, but unless you plan on going downtown every night, you might be better off with a hotel more centralized to the strip.

Make sure to sign up for players club cards for additional discounts, freebies for gambling, and great deals of dining and drinks.
