Golden Nugget Las Vegas: Honest Review, Rooms & Rates

The Golden Nugget is the most upscale place to stay in downtown Las Vegas, radiating a classic, polished Vegas glamour from its marble lobby to its contemporary dining. It sits right on the Fremont Street Experience, in the thick of downtown's free concerts, zip line and neon canopy.

Its signature feature is The Tank — a pool built around a 200,000-gallon shark aquarium, with a three-storey waterslide that drops straight through it. Rooms span several towers at downtown-friendly prices, and you trade the Strip's location for lower rates and easy parking. Rates start around $51 a night before fees.

Insider tipThe Tank pool has a three-storey waterslide that drops straight through the shark aquarium — a downtown highlight you won't find on the Strip.
