A short walk from the Las Vegas Strip is one of the classic hotels and casinos that attracts a diverse crowd. It even attracted aliens in the 1996 cult classic Time Burton film, “Mars Attacks!”. These days, the Gold Coast Hotel & Casino sees visitors and local residents come through its doors regularly.
The Gold Coast, which first opened its doors in 1986, has become a classic fixture in Las Vegas. The Gold Coast clientele tends to be a bit older and the hotel is not very large with only 711 rooms. However, its Victorian style and elegant atmosphere triggers nostalgia and excitement at the same time.
Stroll across the mosaic-tiled floor in the main lobby and approach the rich wood front desk. Brass chandeliers cast a gentle glow and sprays of flowers adorn the walls. The clean décor scheme extends throughout the hotel. The main casino floor also features gold-toned lighting, hanging floral displays and stained glass windows. Hotel rooms are also decorated comfortably and feature the latest in technology and entertainment.
While the décor may be quaint and old-timey, the casino games are up to date and exciting. The Gold Coast Las Vegas features over 2,000 slot machines and video poker, 48 table games, a bingo hall with more than 700 seats and a sports book with 30 interactive terminals and 38 huge screens, so fans will not miss a moment of the action.
This hotel also offers corporate meeting rooms, banquet halls for special events and even a 70 lane bowling alley. Families with kids will love the bumper bowling option. Nightly shows at the Gold Coast Showroom include magicians, live bands and ballroom dancing. Guests can spend time at the beauty parlor or classic barber shop, visit the gym to get pumped or take a dip in the outdoor pool.
After enjoying all the entertaining amenities and testing your luck at the slot machines or the gaming tables, you can relax and have a delicious meal at any of the Gold Coast’s excellent eateries. The hotel’s western theme is magnified at the Cortez Room, a steakhouse that specializes in Steak Diane, Seafood Olympia, Chicken Oscar and an expertly seasoned prime rib.
Those who enjoy Asian cuisine will love to dine at two of Las Vegas’s best. The Ping Pang Pong offers traditional Chinese meals, which represent many different regions of that country. Casual diners will enjoy the Noodle Room. It offers a variety of Ban Ban, noodles and broth options, so guests can create their perfect taste. Vegetarian options are also available.
The Ports o’ Call Buffet allows guests to choose exactly what they want from a vast selection of international fare. T.G.I. Friday’s also has a restaurant at the Gold Coast so patrons can grab a bite to eat and a drink any time or the day or night.
With all the delicious food, high-tech gaming and comfort at the Gold Coast Las Vegas, visitors to the city often make it their one-stop destination for a good time. For those who want to explore more of the city, the hotel offers free shuttle service to The Orleans and the Strip.
