Plaza Hotel & Casino Las Vegas: Honest Review, Rooms & Rates

Built in 1971 on the historic site of the Union Pacific Railroad Station, the Plaza is a true piece of downtown Vegas history — it even appeared in films like Casino and Back to the Future Part II. Its dazzling, dome-fronted entrance and cool '70s retro vibe give it a character the modern Strip can't match.

The glass-domed Oscar's Steakhouse is a local institution, and the rooms are comfortable and affordable. It anchors the top of the Fremont Street Experience, slightly away from the busiest blocks but still walkable to everything downtown, with free self-parking. Rates start around $32 a night.

Insider tipIt sits at the very top of Fremont Street, slightly removed from the busiest blocks — quieter at night, but still walkable to the whole downtown scene.
