Other elements of the makeover include a covered porte cochere, a VIP lounge, Vic and Anthony’s steakhouse, and Lillie’s Asian Cuisine, specializing in Cantonese and Szechuan fare.

At the heart of the improved Golden Nugget are a 500-room hotel tower and the renovated 600-seat showroom. The Golden Nugget recently underwent a $200 million renovation and expansion, the first since 1973 for the perpetual AAA Four-Diamond Award winner. The feel here is definitely upscale, though comfortable and informal.

The casino is clean and breezy, with white enameled walls and white lights. The hotel offers well-appointed guest rooms, a showroom, lounge entertainment, excellent restaurants, a large pool, a first-rate spa, a shopping arcade, a workout room, two on-site Starbucks, and a chapel and wedding planner. The undisputed flagship of the Downtown hotels and one of the most meticulously maintained and managed properties in Las Vegas, the Golden Nugget is smack in the middle of Glitter Gulch.
