Grumpy
The Orleans Hotel and Casino is off The Strip property. Located on the other side of I15 on Tropicana. It is pretty much isolated by itself. It is owned and operated by Boyd Gaming Corporation. The hotel has 1,800 rooms and 135,000 sq ft of gaming space. One main reason to go to The Orleans is because of the Orleans Arena. You will find The Orleans on Tropicana Ave and Arville St (4500 W Tropicana Ave, Las Vegas, NV 89103).
As an illustration, the flair and flavor of the famed “Big Easy” meets the fun and dazzle of Las Vegas at this unique property. That is, at The Orleans, you can celebrate Mardi Gras 365 days a year.
There are plenty of table games and in addition lots of slot machines too. There is a small Sports Book area with lots of TVs. They even have 24 hour Poker room. While I was there the Poker room was so full they had set up additional tables on the side.
The Orleans Hotel and Casino Bars
There are also several bars scattered about. Most notably the Mardi Gras Bar and the Alligator Bar. Since a good way to gauge prices is the cost of a beer. The Bartender told me The Orleans just changed their beer price to $8. Compared to some other off The Strip Casinos, I find this to be a little expensive. But they probably figure you are captured audience, since there is nothing else around.
Food
The hotel also has several notable restaurants, including Alder & Birch, Big Al’s Oyster Bar, Copper Whisk Café, Ondori Asian Kitchen, and TGI Fridays. In addition there is a food court which has Fuddruckers, Baskin-Robbins, Sbarro, and Subway.
In similar fashion, the hotel offers a variety of amenities, including a movie theater, a bowling center, and video game arcade. Moreover, the Orleans Arena which host a variety of sports events and concerts.
In conclusion, The Orleans Hotel and Casino is a destination for tourists and locals alike. Nevertheless, with its variety of amenities it offers something for everyone. There are also plenty of spots to get something to drink or eat. I usually go because of a event in the Arena. Lastly, more information on The Orleans site.
