Is Boulder Station Worth It? Honest Review, Rooms & Rates

Boulder Station is the kind of all-in-one locals' resort where you barely need to leave: a sizeable casino, an 11-screen cinema, the Railhead live-music showroom, a food court and several restaurants all sit under one roof. The rooms are comfortable and affordable, and the whole place has a welcoming, repeat-visitor feel.

It's about five miles and 15 minutes from the Strip (west along Flamingo Road or Tropicana Avenue), so it suits travelers with a car who want locals' value over a Boulevard address. Free self-parking is a given, and Kids Quest child care makes it an easy pick for families.

Insider tipTraveling as three or four? Book the Standard Two Queen rather than the Standard King - both are the same 300 square feet, but the king room caps at two guests while the queen room sleeps four.

Frequently asked questions

Does Boulder Station have bowling?

No. Boulder Station has an 11-screen movie theater and the Railhead live-music showroom, but no bowling alley - you may be thinking of Sam's Town, another locals' casino about a mile down Boulder Highway.

How far is Boulder Station from the Strip?

About five miles, a roughly 15-minute drive west along Flamingo Road or Tropicana Avenue (Boulder Highway itself runs toward downtown). The closest big Strip attractions - the High Roller and the Venetian's gondolas - are just under five miles away. There's no hotel shuttle to the Strip or the airport, so plan on a car or rideshare; self-parking at the resort is free.

What is the resort fee at Boulder Station?

$30 plus tax per night. It covers Wi-Fi, the fitness room, the outdoor pool and local and long-distance calls. Self-parking is free and sits outside the fee, so the resort fee is the only mandatory add-on.

Is Boulder Station good for families?

Yes. Kids Quest runs hourly drop-in child care with the Cyber Quest arcade alongside, so parents can slip off to the casino or a Railhead show, and there's an 11-screen cinema and an outdoor pool on-site. Children 12 and under stay free with an adult.

Is there late-night or 24-hour food at Boulder Station?

Yes. Game On, the resort's restaurant and sports bar, serves American comfort food around the clock, so there's always a sit-down option after a late night at the tables. For quick bites the Quick Eats food court has Capriotti's, Sbarro, Wingstop and three more counters, plus a separate Starbucks, while The Broiler is the resort's steak-and-seafood room for a proper dinner.
