My wife and I have regularly visited the Orleans since it opened, but will not go back any more. Just spent 4 days there and the slot payback was non-existent. They have continually tightened the machines the last 5-6 years so that now, nothing is won on video poker or the slots. Also, the place is starting to show it's age and they have not kept the property up to date. The faucet leaked in our room and and bedding was old and worn. The only thing they have going now is that the buffet is still pretty good. They have other restaurants in the casino but I wouldn't waste my time eating in any one of them. In addition to the above, the drinks are so watered down, that one cannot tell if they have any booze in it or not. There are better places to stay in Vegas than the Orleans.

Have stayed at The Orleans often. Rooms are spacious and nicely furnished; customer service is great. Their slots are pretty tight, but they sometimes have promotions going on where you can slide your players card in a kiosk and earn rewards; i.e. put $5 in the slots and get $5 free play. Really enjoy their buffets and their environment off the strip.

The Orleans has been in business now for many years. It seems to cater a lot to locals and they are a full service and very large casino. It's a bit too big for me but I did enjoy the time I spent there this last trip last week. They are huge...they have bars all over the place, lots of restaurants including chains in a food court. They also happen to have a HUGE poker room with about 50 tables. I am a poker player so that's big to me. I like an enclosed poker room to keep the smoke out. This room is not enclosed but it's so large the smoke wasn't much of a problem. They had just about every kind of poker game available and a lot of action so one can get on a table just about any time. I might add that if you're a poker player you can park in the back and walk right into the poker room area...very convenient.

We watched some football there in a lounge that had been converted with a big movie type screen with very nice cushy chairs. It was very nice. We also had a problem there and when I complained to management, a young lady at the front desk named Stephanie couldn't do enough to solve the problem.

This was the first trip to Las Vegas when I have spent a great deal at Orleans and I don't regret it. We didn't get a chance to try their restaurants but I understand their Mexican joint is real good. NEXT TIME!

Top notch casino/hotel, just a ways off the strip, with decent hotel prices and solid dining options.

Really good buffet here, and we also dined at TGI Fridays when we were here for a night a few trips back. This place is one of those hidden gems in Vegas, much like South Point and Siverton.

This place is worth a visit and even a stay.

The Orleans is exactly one mile from the strip. If you have a car this place is a great find. Rooms are good sized, same for bathrooms. The property is huge and has spa, pool, gym, bowling, and restaurants. The only down side us the location. If you needed to take a cab to the strip every day, the cost would probably exceed the typically great room rates the Orleans offers.
