Fremont

Located in the heart of downtown, this historic hotel-casino (60 years old in 2016) features approximately 500 guest rooms and suites and does not charge a resort fee. On-site dining options tend to be casual, with a leaning toward Pacific-Rim cuisine, but there are plenty of outside eateries within easy walking distance. A complimentary shuttle takes guests to sister property Sam's Town on Boulder Highway and from there to the Strip. The casino offers a race and sports book, table games, and slots, including low-denomination favorites on "Penny Lane."
