Great service, room in disrepair
Check in and all staff, including cafe and restaurant, were great. Room had broken plumbing, broken furniture, broken towel bar. It's clear they're trying to remodel, we enjoyed our stay regardless.

Perfect spot for a quick getaway
Golden Nugget is in a great location - it was an easy walk to the concert event we were in town to attend. Room was big, clean and comfortable. Front desk staff was responsive and helpful. Parking was easy. Our lunch at Saltgrass Steak House was delicious in a wonderful atmosphere. We were pleasantly surprised and will definitely be back.

Great staff and beautiful hotel
We stayed in one of the newly remodeled rooms - it was awesome! But the highlight of our visit was the staff who assisted us with check-in; he was very friendly and helpful in directing us about the hotel and activities in the vicinity. This is a beautiful hotel in a perfect location, near multiple casinos - making it a fun and walkable area.
