Lovely jungle vibe as you walk in. Had a great meal at Bubba Gumps. Next time I'm going to eat out on the deck. Great view of the river read more

This hotel is disgusting and a waste of your money. The one star rating I gave it is for the free parking. And that is all. Dirty, stained, smelly and gross hotel room with stains on the toilet, crusty rust coated bathroom sink and toilet and even missing grout in the bathroom. Just disgusting. The flooding that happens in the shower is just nasty and the water only drains after the water is turned off. Worst shower ever. The nasty underwear that was left in the closet was just too much. The constant noise and room shaking from other guests on other room floors and the cardboard mattresses is all this hotel has to offer. The only good thing about it was when we checked out a day early. Will never go back here. read more

if i could put 0 stars i would. ac was broken, 95° outside, 79° in the room. trying to sleep in a sauna. talked to front desk and maintenance 4 times. NOTHING changed. asked to atleast change rooms, "nothing available". read more

My family and I were able to book a room here last minute for Fourth of July weekend. Everywhere else was sold out. When I had called to ask about availability, the employee had said they had a room with two queens available. Come to find out there was not. We got a room with a single king but they assured us that they would provide an air mattress. At the end of the day, they did not and said all were all being used. The room itself is a decent size with a table and two chairs and bathroom is fine. There is a casino floor and couple other restaurants and a cafe. The pool is not that big and only 3 feet deep, which is disappointing. You are able to ask for a pool towel at the front desk. The front desk is helpful with information about the area. Overall, not too bad. Crazy though with it being the fourth, read more

First off let me start off by saying if you reserve a handicapped room check it out before hand cause what they gave us was not and had to wait an add hour for one to be ready. Secondly the dealer at the blackjack table ran a 9 straight 21 hands which is unheard of. Third we went down to have dinner at the Claim Jumper and literally closed the restaurant right in front of us while seating the couple in front of us. It was only 7;20pm and the restaurant manager was very unhelpful and condescending. Went down to the SaltGrass steakhouse and for a table of 2 was a 45 min wait and there was not a lot of people in there. This is our first day of a two day stay and we are already frustrated and disappointed. I don't recommend staying here. Omg we got back To our room on the 4th floor and our bathroom sink is filled with ants. We are literally checking out a day early due to all the issues and there's no general manager on the grounds. Our room ac has been on full blast for 24 hours and still was 85 degrees. They are say since we are leaving early we will have to dispute the charge. Freakin ridiculous. We will NEVER stay here again. If I could rate this place in the negative numbers I would. Horrible experience read more

I enjoyed my stay here. I was in room 161, with a courtyard/garden patio. Everything was conveniently located, and the accommodation was extremely well priced. The amenities are a little lackluster. Vending machine didn't work properly. And the restaurant hours were not great for a mid week stay. The Claim Jumper was the only restaurant open and it was... just okay. Parking is easy. I'd come back. read more

I mean, it was okay. First timer in Laughlin. Totally understand that this would be not the fanciest place, so the high rating is on the relative scale. We had our dogs, so got a patio room, which was great to walk out our room to a pretty large grass area for the dogs. Nice that it's attached to restaurants and the casino. We went to Claim Jumper. We got the 24 karat cards for $5 of free play. Played video poker and got free drinks. I won $28 on the bull slot, yay! The worst parts, I moved rooms because the first room had a big pile of dirt, no big deal, really. We got to the second room with the dog. The outdoor was muddy cause it rained and I went to grab a towel to clean the dogs paws and noticed we didn't have towels or trashcan liners and there was a pair of dirty rubber gloves on the counter. The front desk was super nice about it though. The bell hop was great! Super helpful with all our stuff The only real bad thing was the air conditioner was so loud it was hard to sleep until I put in ear plugs... Would I stay here again, probably not, but more so cause I don't need a trip to Laughlin, ha read more

This is an absolutely beautiful property! I used to live in Laughlin and it was considered the upper echelon of casinos on Casino Drive. I have only been here once as a resident and decided to come back again in January 2026 to take my Mom to Bubba Gump for her birthday. The place is very beautiful! Well lit and decorated, and very welcoming. It is not very big, but the size makes it feel very intimate. I cannot wait to come back and try their steakhouse and maybe even stay here. The only reason why I cannot rate it 5 stars is because I haven't really experienced anything here but Bubba Gump, but from what the eye can see, I do not think it would disappoint! Stay tuned for an updated review when I get back here! read more

Honestly I have never met a ruder dealer than Larry, if you are to play at the tables make sure your dealer is not LARRY. My 1 star review is only because of Larry , everyone else was kind and welcoming. read more

Recently stayed at the Golden Nugget. Initially our room was on the first floor in the west wing which had a spectacular view of the sidewalk. We paid extra to move to the East wing where we ended up having a view of the Colorado River. The room was fine. The casino is very smoky. Not sure you can avoid this. I am not a big fan of hanging out with people that smoke inside. They may have had a non smoking area but if they did it was not very big. read more

Laughlin isn't Vegas, and thank God for that. The Golden Nugget sits on the river with just enough grit and history to remind you why these towns exist. I hit the tables, walked away a thousand up, and let the house pick up my steak dinner, gas, and room. The steak? Solid, no gimmicks, just the kind of meal you want when you've had a good night. The room was quiet, comfortable, and--best part--free of the chaos you'd expect a few hours north. Staff was genuinely friendly, not the fake kind, which made the whole stay feel easy. It's not trying to be flashy, and that's the beauty. A river town, a win, a steak, and a good night's sleep. Trip was too short, but I'll be back. read more

Casino at the Golden Nugget is okay. When we went during weekday, 3 Card Poker didn't open until 4 pm, which was a bit of a bummer. Good to know for next time. The ceilings are also a bit low, and the setting is quite dim. Service was great, and the slot machines worked well. I did like the entrance area though. The waterfall decor structure was a nice touch. read more

The front desk staff , gave great customer service!! The rooms are nice and clean ! Best of all it's Dog Friendly!! This property has a wonderful set up , with nice patios and a little park area to walk your dog !! I would stay here again !! read more

I honestly wouldn't have come here if Saltgrass Steak House wasn't inside. After we finished eating, we played a little at one of the tables. The dealer (an Asian lady) had a really negative vibe like she didn't want to be there and hated her job so we ended up leaving the table and moving on. You just felt it. Wow..I'm glad I didn't book a room here. Based on the reviews, it sounds like a nightmare. The rooms definitely seem like they need updating. Vegas rooms can already be hit or miss, but I have a feeling this place might be even worse. read more

I stayed at the hotel Wednesday to Friday. Checking was fine. The room was clean, the internet was ok but that's where it stopped. The room was warm and I checked the thermostat and it was almost at 50 degrees. I cracked it to 50 and put it on high. I started to feel a little cold air but it took several hours to completely cool down. Thank goodness it was March and not August. I could let that go. I received a text message with a link to the Golden Nugget webpage that offered late checkout at 1pm or 2pm or later. Since this was a working vacation I chose the 2pm checkout which was an additional $40. The webpage takes you to a spot to put in your name and room number. I put those in and hit submit. The page said your request has been submitted and to go to the front desk to get new keys. When I went the morning of my departure, the front desk clerk said they had no request from me for a late checkout and they weren't available. I asked to speak to the manager who said the same thing. He apologized for the situation and appreciated my feedback. What a $hitshow. read more

Check in isn't until 4 pm and that is a hard rule apparently even though it's 3:30! Golden Nugget more like dirty pebble! Seriously not A single room available! Wow! Big mistake booking here read more

On May 17, 2026 my BF and I checked into our room to find the toilet in our bedroom had not been cleaned and there were stains on and in it, when we told Harris (the guy working the desk) we were given a hand towel and offered some wipes so that we could clean it ourselve!!!After refusing to except that there was nothing he could d, I was told no other room was availabl,I was able to get Harris to contact the casino porter and have them clean it. I had to make it clear that this was a bio hazard and asking a customer to clean it is unacceptabl!! the next morning while checking out we explained our experience to the supervisor and she removed the charge, However this experience has left us both feeling very disappointed we expected much more from the Golden Nugget. read more

I really have mixed emotions about this place. My husband and I just completed a stay here and I'm just not as happy as I'd thought I'd be. Pros: Room was cheap Free Valet Parking Pool Cons: Property is under renovation and this wasn't mentioned by anyone till we arrived. No in room safes Finding the WiFi password was a challenge ( it's on the TV in the upper right, but of course you have to turn on the TV) They say you can order a cooked breakfast to be delivered to your room for a few, but there's a catch. Claim Jumper is the only onsite restaurant that offers breakfast. IF they have staff available they'll deliver breakfast to your room. If that's the case why advertise you can order breakfast? I can't believe in a hotel that has a casino I'd have to go to the front desk to put things in an old fashioned lock box. So, someone one could target me for a robbery or worse later. Plus, they have the nerve to have billboards along the freeway saying to stay in their renovated rooms. Gambling options were okay, but really nothing was what I expected from a Golden Nugget property. read more

Guess I just expected more from hotel than what we got. I booked a 2 queen garden view room. Beds are definitely not queen, but full. Garden View is a view of shrubs, tree and parking garage. We were only there for one night so no, I didn't complain. Our room definitely was older, but being old doesn't mean it can't look ok. Bathroom light switch cracked all the way through, easy fix if they did it. Housekeeping is really biggest issue. Around the tub, black yuck. Stain of I am not sure what on the pillowcase, entire pillow ended up in corner of room. Then in middle of the night, finger got caught in sheet, had a hole. Won't ever be back or give another chance. read more

I don't even have words to describe how disgusting my food was in the CJ restaurant. I was with my friend and her family and i ordered the chicken fried chicken. The chicken wasn't cooked at all. it had no color to it, it was like a raw light pink color inside and a rubbery texture. I was given white gravy with weird grey chunks in it. the only thing i could eat was the mash potatoes which were OKAY. After leaving the golden nugget, i started to throw up the chicken and had horrible stomach aches and was crying all night. Thanks a lot CJ. NEVER COMING BACK AGAIN!! read more

We come here for Bubba Gump. That being said, while waiting the almost 45 minutes for a table, I decided to get a player's card and play some slots. I got some free play credits, too, for signing up, so that was a plus. However, when it came time to use the credits, none of the machines I played would recognize it. I asked one of the hosts and she got a manager and he tried. He couldn't get it to work either. His repsosne, "hmm, I guess it's not working right now. Try again later..." Uh, no. I didn't even know if I was getting points for the $200 I dumped into the 5 machines I played. The lobby is cool, oversized truck parking is minimal and the machines can't communicate with the players cards. I don't know about the rooms, but that is enough to make it mediocre for me. read more

While i wouldn't give this place a gold star review, I wouldn't label it as poor either.....that means it falls somewhere in the quiet realm of mediocrity. That, by the way, is just fine. CHECK IN: i checked in with ease, BUT just to note if you try to get in before 2pm a $33.75 fee applies. No thanks! ROOM: Your room with be in one of 2 four story wings East or West. Protip- the pool was in the East wing. I was in the West wing, my room overlooked some barren courtyard where grass once was (and some still remains) but looked pretty trampled. Accommodation itself was what you would expect. It was basic and fits your needs for a Laughlin visit. Everything looked to be in good repair and clean. The Air conditioning unit was questionable in its operation, but the windows here do open a little if you need cool air. For the price this place served its purpose. PROPERTY: Yeah so they may not be as flashy as their Vegas counterpart, but this Golden Nugget location doesn't need all the glitz and glamour to shine. Free parking, a decent room and food options are all we need in Laughlin. And a bar named "the Sand Bar" all will definitely make you feel like you are on vacation. read more

Not off to a good start. Arrived over 2 hours ago and we are changing rooms. No heat. The room is 58 degrees! Great if it was summer but we are almost in winter! They had technician come up but it's going to be another hour to fix the heat, provided it is indeed the coils. Not to mention the light fixture. We are tired and hungry and this is not a great start to our little adventure. Waiting in line AGAIN to get a new room. Ugh. Will update! This is nothing like the Golden Nugget in Las Vegas! read more

Had a great stay at the Golden Nugget! The location is excellent, it's pet friendly, and there are several great restaurants right on the property. Everything was clean and well maintained, and the hotel has a fun atmosphere. Overall, it's a great place to stay if you're visiting the river area. Definitely one of the nicer options in town! read more

Two days in a row housekeeping did a lousy job cleaning our room. They did not vacuum, clean the sink, or counter tops properly. I would not stay here again. read more

I paid premium price for a "new" room with a "river" view. What I got was a room with view of a building and with furniture that was so worn out there was sawdust on the floor. The room had a very heavy disinfectant smell. And to top it all off, when I checked out the next morning, their computer system was down & I still haven't received an email with my receipt. I will never set foot in the Golden Nugget Laughlin again! read more

I loved staying in the villa. It was so private and full of items to make your stay feel comfortable. The heater was broken and they didn't have any blankets so we were a bit chilly.. read more

It looks outdated. I sat down at a machine and was playing max. 3.00, I believe, and I hit the free play bonus when I went to get it. The machine froze. I called an attendant, and they couldn't do anything. After they fixed the machine, the bonus was voided. That was disappointing. The casino floor is hot. It felt like the A/C didn't work. The nightclub had a lot of good music, but once again it was super hot. read more

Laughlin is a sad little Vegas wanna be. It has declined so much since COVID and has not recovered. Employees say that it has never recovered and it shows. Everything and everywhere looks tired, understaffed and on the verge of closing down. read more

Won a jackpot,during Covid here.Rooms are clean(maybe a lil dated).Friendly staff,walking distance to the Riverwalk/Strip.Good selection on drinks,free valet.Steakhouse is phenomenal read more

I like it here, which is why I keep coming back...but every time I return it gets a little bit worse. One blackjack table open, waited to play for 90 minutes, no one ever got up so never got to play. Pit bosses say they don't have enough staff. Not going to waste my time again, this was my last trip here. read more

So I walk into the Golden Nugget, and i've been coming to Laughlin for maybe a year or so. I never stayed here, but i've come here for uh, dinners and lunches. Let me tell you when you walk in the front door you are greeted by beautiful waterfalls. Beautiful water trickling down in a very tropical setting. You have numerous restaurants to pick from, You have claim jumper, you have bubba gump shrimp, you have a great steakhouse, you have a little coffee shop called bread and bun. But I have to say this by far is the best hotel I have ever been in. I will be booking my next stay here at the golden nugget. The atmosphere is so old school, and it brings back such memories of when the casinos were, uh, a very quaint, they have very different machines, poker machines, keno you could play keno and sit there all day long, and you can you know, watch the numbers come up at the bar, or you can go over, to keno and gamble over there and bet on horse races, tennis matches, you can bet ahead on football games, nfl games. Then you have the bar and the bar that i'm speaking of is in the back of the casino and you can sit at the bar and you can play poker keno blackjack and you have the background of the river the colorado river so you're sitting at the bar and you're looking at the colorado river it's obviously a beautiful. The pool is super cute, it's tiny, but it's super cute and quaint. The gift shops.They're fun a lot of cute things in there. The whole place reminds me of old vegas. Definitely coming here next time. read more

We are huge fans of the Golden Nugget Las Vegas. Stay there every time we go to Vegas, at least twice a year. But the one in Laughlin, skip, warning, do not stay here. It's super small and run down. Rooms are clean but what is not communicated widely is all rooms are adjoining. If you don't want to hear your neighbors talking loudly, children screaming and their TV all night, well you're in the wrong hotel. We called the front desk and were offered no options or solutions. I simply asked for more towels that I could shove in between the door and under it and they couldn't even bother to accommodate that. Not to mention the food options in the hotel are severely limited. Forget about a late night meal. Everything closes early even on a Saturday night. The Claim Jumper restaurant was terrible. Food was so salty we couldn't eat it and the martini... I took one sip and couldn't do another. It was disgusting. We are so loyal to this chain but I absolutely will not be back here. read more

The Golden Nugget Hotel was a nice place. The room was clean and big. We did have a view of the river and pool area. The staff was friendly and like the fact that the hotel itself was non-smoking. The price was reasonable for what you would find along the river walk. They had two restaurants on the campus to choose from and they were depart from the casino floor and provided outdoor seating which was nice. read more

biggest waste of cash iv ever spent getting a motel! first nobody told me it was gonna be 70.00 extra for my dog, i was stranded and had to pay it or sleep in my car which i probably should have, with someone running around upstairs all night, when i finally got up to make coffee they only left caffeine free so i went to the desk to get some got back to the room snd the coffee pot didnt work, i give up and im leaving and definitely wont be back read more

Where do I begin. Sean checked us in and I knew we had made a mistake staying here right away. He acted like it was a chore and zero personality. We then went to our room and the minute we walked in it smelled like we were in a bar. The alcohol smell was so bad I had to get air freshener from housekeeping. The bottom of the dresser drawer was broken out and the coffeemaker didn't make a drop of coffee. The pool is about the size of a small backyard pool and I guess 3 1/2 feet deep. I understand Laughlin is an older city but have stayed at beautiful properties before. The restaurants were great but won't stay here again. Definitely not the caliber of the Golden Nugget brand. read more

Well....... It's been several years since we have been to Laughlin. Fair to say there is a reason why. We remembered the Golden Nugget as the upper scale spot in Laughlin.... Not so much any more.... The Salt Grass restaurant was the highlight of our visit and Jimmy (our server) was the best! Highly recommend the restaurant and can't say enough about Jimmy's attentiveness. Thank you Jimmy!! Our room was very dated, somewhat clean, bathroom floors a little sticky. Bring your slippers. Day time dealers (Julie and Joseph) were awesome and fun. Late night dealers were grumpy and just wanting to get rid of players. Tables closed a little after 1:15am on a Friday.....?? Definitely disappointing. I thought Laughlin was an all night town. I would rather drive a little further and go to Vegas. I won't be back to the Golden Nugget Laughlin or Laughlin for that matter. Don't waste your time or money. Not worth the visit. read more

I don't usually write reviews, but this experience absolutely deserves a shoutout! If you're headed to Laughlin, staying at the Golden Nugget is a must. A small mix-up turned into a pleasant surprise when we got to meet Jenny, the food and beverage manager, and Forest, the Director. They were so helpful, kind, and professional--we really felt taken care of. The property itself is clean and packed with awesome dining options. So far, we're torn between Claim Jumper and Salt Grass as our favorites--both delicious! Special thanks to Memo, who is hands down a FANTASTIC server. Shoutout to Michael, the manager, who clearly runs a tight and friendly ship. Our drinks showed up lightning fast--less than two minutes after ordering! The pool was a total vibe--great for mingling with other guests over tasty drinks. The bartenders were not only talented mixologists but kept the atmosphere upbeat and welcoming. Plus, lounging poolside with a view of the Colorado River and watching jet skis zip by? Unbeatable. Our room was spacious and comfy, and the casino floor was fun every time we wandered through. All around, the Golden Nugget hits the sweet spot of fun, affordability, and hospitality. Huge thanks for a wonderful stay--we're already counting down the days until we come back and try Bubba Gump! read more
