The slots are alot looser and the buffet is wonderful! Many other casinos near-by and fun to check out when in this area. ]]> Mon, 17 Mar 2014 12:30:14 +0000 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/nevada/sams-town-hotel-a-gambling-hall.html/discussions/2506771 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/nevada/sams-town-hotel-a-gambling-hall.html/discussions/2506771 We stayed for 13 nights in October 13th and generally enjoyed our stay, but we won't be returning in the near future. The primary problem, aside from the location, was the soft beds. My wife's back ached so much that she ended up seeing a chiropractor when we were returned home. ]]> Mon, 06 Jan 2014 11:42:53 +0000 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/nevada/sams-town-hotel-a-gambling-hall.html/discussions/2506765 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/nevada/sams-town-hotel-a-gambling-hall.html/discussions/2506765 Sams town may not be in a great location on boulder highway, but they do have free shuttles to the strip and downtown freemont that anyone can use. They have plenty of full pay, progressive and 100% video poker, but they have removed some. They have a poker room that the locals like, with some promotions going on many days. This is a huge property with lots to do. ]]> Fri, 03 Jan 2014 20:58:26 +0000 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/nevada/sams-town-hotel-a-gambling-hall.html/discussions/2506718 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/nevada/sams-town-hotel-a-gambling-hall.html/discussions/2506718 The hotel/casino's location on the east side of town is inconvenient even for those renting a car. There are no nearby highways running east/west so we invariably ended up using highly trafficked Flamingo, Tropicana, Sahara or Desert Inn to get to the Strip or our dining destinations west of the Strip. We found Desert Inn to be the least congested. On the plus side, there is easy access to 515/95 that runs north to Downtown and south to Henderson/Boulder City. ]]> Sat, 07 Dec 2013 16:15:04 +0000 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/nevada/sams-town-hotel-a-gambling-hall.html/discussions/2506707 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/nevada/sams-town-hotel-a-gambling-hall.html/discussions/2506707 Though we usually stay elsewhere, I regularly play at this casino because of the availability of full pay deuces. As a Sapphire card member, I receive discounted rates that can be booked online. On our most recent trip we decided to spend 13 nights there because the room rates were significantly lower than other locals hotel/casinos that we frequent. ]]> Mon, 02 Dec 2013 10:32:30 +0000 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/nevada/sams-town-hotel-a-gambling-hall.html/discussions/2506151 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/nevada/sams-town-hotel-a-gambling-hall.html/discussions/2506151 This is another one of my favorite casinos. Now it may just be that I'm a little biased because it's the only casino in Vegas that sends me free room offers but I still love it. It's a locals casino and all the workers have that same "cheers" like attitude where everyone is their friend and they also have great video poker. They are one of the few casinos left that have full pay dueces wild which has an expected return of over 100% if you know how to play it which is always a plus too. I also like their hotel a lot also, the rooms are great for the price just don't be expecting a 4 seasons or anything. ]]> Fri, 28 Dec 2012 17:18:13 +0000 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/nevada/sams-town-hotel-a-gambling-hall.html/discussions/2505287 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/nevada/sams-town-hotel-a-gambling-hall.html/discussions/2505287 Straight Forward Review based on my 2 week trip last month: Property- Sam’s Town on Boulder Hwy.

Accommodations are fine, though if you want a room overlooking the atrium, that's an upgrade. It's kind of fun to walk through the atrium or sit and watch the variety of stuffed birds and animals out there do their things. Last time we were there the wolf that comes out of the mountain top and howls was a little moth eaten, but we just accept that as part of Sams. Enjoy the Tuesday senior $3 movies and you can take your ticket stub to TGI Fridays and get a BOGO meal. Sams also has a big bowling alley with great prices. Breakfast buffet with your players card is only $5.49, but avoid the ice tea with any meal. It's from a concentrate and tastes pretty bad. ]]> Thu, 29 Dec 2011 00:03:57 +0000 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/nevada/sams-town-hotel-a-gambling-hall.html/discussions/2504470 https://www.americancasinoguidebook.com/nevada/sams-town-hotel-a-gambling-hall.html/discussions/2504470 Sam's Town still is one of our favorite casinos in Las Vegas. We make sure we visit it on senior day to get the most points for our play since points are multiplied that day. Also, it takes half the points to get a buffet on senior day. ]]> Mon, 26 Sep 2011 19:01:39 +0000
