I stumbled across this jewel while in town on a business trip (yes, a business trip). I love it here. I am saying that even though I haven't walked away with my pockets full. The rooms are wonderful and really give off a cabi/lodge like atmosphere. There's a variety of slots to choose from and the tables always have polite staff.
There are several places to eat and dine on the floor of the casino - no 10 mile hike to try and find the buffet line. It is almost like a fancy food court.
And one thing that sticks in my mind is that there's always a players club promo going on that entails turning in your points of the day for a random item that you would see advertised at 2am on tv. A shammy wow, a non stick pan, a car handwarmer...
Want to take a break from the action? Hang out at the floor to ceiling fish tank... time it so that you can see the mermaids and divers feeding or cleaning the tank.
Had enough of fish? Stroll into the full sized footprint of a Bass Pro Shop. I think that is the funniest thing! Out of clothes and ammo? Stop right in!

On our recent nine night vacation in Las Vegas we stayed at the Silverton Casino for five nights. We started the trip with a two night stay under my wife's name and ended it five days later with a three night stay under my name. Since we had never stayed here before we were happy when the free room offers arrived in the mail. They were running a promotion in November for free food for slot play. We played so much each day that we ended up getting two $40 dining credits, two $20 dining credits and three $10 dining credits (or free regular buffets). When we finally got home there were more free room offers in our mail for January - March 2012 so it looks like we will be returning here next year.

My niece worked at the Silverton until this year. When I visited her, I would gamble at the casino and would usually win. The sportsmans shop was always an attraction with their stuffed wild animals.

The Silverton is a nice casino with a lot good machines. However, be aware that not only is the buffet pricey, there are also some nights to just avoid it, specifically the Hawaiian Luau night. I made the mistake of paying full price and found the food less than decent. The pig was overcooked and everything else was 2nd rate. I did have my buy one get one free coupon but since I was alone, they wouldn't give me 1/2 price (the logical and accepted norm). Instead they sent me to the players club where I found 100 people in line trying to redeem a free play for locals coupon. I gave up and paid the full price. The cookies were good!

We always play at the Silverton Casino when we visit Las Vegas. And don't miss seeing the huge aquarium located near the Pro Bass Shop which is connected to the casino.
