Golden Nugget Casino - Las Vegas, NV
In the old days of Las Vegas, the Golden Nugget was a casino unlike any other. Today, it’s still a great casino and in fact the Golden Nugget Casino offers some of the highest limit gambling in downtown Las Vegas. It’s located in the heart of downtown, right by
Binion’s Horseshoe Casino. The Golden Nugget hotel rooms are classical and elegant. Unlike most of the Las Vegas Strip, which can be a little pricey, rooms at the Golden Nugget Casino start at just $69. Staying in Las Vegas is extremely affordable if you know where to look. Downtown is a great place to stay, because the rooms are usually much more inexpensive. Downtown Las Vegas is also home to some of the lowest gambling limits in the city, which is perfect for those wishing to learn how to play.
Vic & Anthony’s Steakhouse at the Golden Nugget
Like many good casinos, the Golden Nugget has a great steakhouse—Vic & Anthony’s. Their steakhouse features the best cuts of steak as well as fresh seafood, like lobster. All their meat comes from grain-fed cows. They have all the cuts of beef you would expect from a great steakhouse. Vic & Anthony’s also has Lamb Chops, Veal Chops, Maple Glazed Quail, Beluga Caviar and much more. Vic & Anthony’s also features impeccable service. It’s truly a great dining experience.
Hand of Faith
What’s the point of going to a place called the Golden Nugget if you can’t see any Gold? Well, you are in luck. It’s called the Hand of Faith and it’s one exhibit you have to see to believe. The Hand of Faith is the largest gold nugget on public display on the entire planet! This gold nugget was found in Australia and is now on display in downtown Las Vegas. The Hand of Faith (which actually looks like a hand) weighs in at 61 pounds and 11 ounces. That’s 987 ounces of gold in this one nugget. Imagine what it’s worth at today’s gold prices.

Location. Rising 22 stories above Fremont Street and located two miles north of The Strip is the legendary gaming landmark Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino in downtown Las Vegas, Nev. Part of the Fremont Street Experience, this property is located under a canopy of animated LED lights sheltering a pedestrian corridor where nightly live shows are presented on Las Vegas' original gambling avenue. For trips in the surrounding area, busses and the Las Vegas Monorail are available for a fee.
Hotel Features. The largest gold nugget on public display in the world, "The Hand of Faith," weighs roughly 61 pounds, 11 ounces, and is located in the property's lobby. The lobby opens up into a central pool complex. The moat like pool is surrounded by waterfalls, spa tubs and cabanas with palm shaped fans and brown rattan furnishings. A three story, clear waterslide travels through a shark tank that holds six different types of sharks and a stingray. The 24 hour Carson Street Café serves light cuisine and entrees including Hawaiian specialties with views of The Shark Tank. A vintage Vegas feel permeates Vic & Anthony's, with old Vegas photographs, handcrafted mahogany woodwork and leather furnishings. The Spa at Golden Nugget hosts indulgent treatments including the Lavender Dreams Ultimate Experience and the Caviar Mani Kur. The Theatre Ballroom hosts music and variety shows Saturday through Wednesday.
Guestrooms. The 1,907 guestrooms and suites feature dark and blond wood furnishings with décor in earth tones. Rooms offer views of the Las Vegas skyline, Spring Mountains or the pool terrace. Marble bathrooms feature lighted makeup mirrors and Davies Gate toiletries.
