Great location, friendly staff. Stayed in original 47 room Thursday - Sunday nights and was a little noisy Friday and Saturday but was to be expected with all of the clubs and bars nearby. Area very safe at all hours. Breakfast at Seigels was delicious and HUGE! Thanks for a great stay El Cortez!

Nice room, felt safe even though it was a separate building. Lights and cameras everywhere, easy location For Lyft to pick you up and drop off. I liked the non smoking building cause sometimes the casino smoke overwhelms. The spa was awesome and affordable. Freemont street was so close by and yet not rowdy or loud enough to hear in the room. Staff was great!! Alice at front desk was super nice, the housekeeping and maintenance team as well. and they showed me the layout of the hotel.

Check in staff rude and unprofessional. My first time there. When checked in, the young lady did not seem to want to help me with anything. I had to ask here to show me how to get to my room and were to park. Did not even gave me the promotion booklet or complementary drinks because I booked with Expedia. The cabana petite room was so small and noisy because it’s next to public parking. The casino has bad ventilation. Smells like cigarettes all over. There’s no smoking section.

I had low expectations because was told it was an old run down hotel. Clearly these people have not been to the El Cortez, because it’s gorgeous. The hotel has been renovated to high standards, from the lobby to the rooms, it was beautiful (I stayed in the tower, can’t speak to rooms in different locations.) Beyond the look of the casino was their staff, HR is doing a fabulous job hiring staff, from hotel, to restaurant and casino the staff were amazing. As for the food, I can only speak to the main restaurant, gosh don’t even remember the name, but the food was outstanding! I had the best French dip sandwich ever the first night, my husband had salmon that he said was delicious. Since dinner was so good we had breakfast there, again outstanding, in fact so good that the next morning we were going home we decided to have breakfast there before we hit the road. That never happens, we always leave as soon as we’re up. I think the hotel is really smart because they have a check in of 2 (4 which is the norm these days) and check out at 12, (the norm is now 11). Giving you the extra time is super smart. They’re super easy access from freeway, parking structure’s connected to hotel and you immediately enter into the casino from the structure. Oh free parking too, not the case on the strip! They kept one little section of the casino in original state, which was quaint. Only negative, pillows in room were so lumpy. This is now my go to stay in Vegas, Bravo El Cortez!
