The word "Timeless" is thrown around rather aggressively by advertising firms who wish to convey a sort of perpetual elegance that neither comes into nor goes out of fashion. It is something unique that creates and maintains a standard all its own. Unfortunately, ad agencies try to make this word fit establishments that think fast food burgers are fine dining, or casinos that attempt to draw customers with roller coasters. The Golden Nugget is one of the few venues in Las Vegas that can legitimately be referred to as timeless.
The Golden Nugget's Fremont street address gives away its age and forever associates it with "Old Vegas". This crown jewel of the classic days of Vegas has been through many renovations throughout the years, while still maintaining the charm that has been its hallmark. During the day the building is a bright white, with domed overhangs over the windows. At night the white building shimmers the color of gold. The interior of the hotel is an exercise in opulence. Marble columns, floors and a grand chandelier welcome arriving guests.
Once inside, the vacationer may take a swim, work out in the health club, relax in the spa, or play in the 36,000 square ft casino. The Golden Nugget casino offers everything for the gambling enthusiast. From the most modern slots and video poker games, classic table games, to an updated poker room that will satisfy the most ardent devotee of the game. They also have a 100 seat race and sports book area that is stocked with 28 televisions and 1 big screen monitor.
The dining amenities are as good at the Golden Nugget as they are anywhere in Vegas. For those looking for a quick snack and some caffeine, the hotel offers a Starbucks and The Snack Bar. When it comes time for a full meal, the diner may either put on a jacket and tie and be pampered at the world class steakhouse "Vic and Anthony's", or enjoy the benefits of plentiful buffet.
When one stays at the Golden Nugget it will become quickly clear why this one of a kind venue has for so long maintained a reputation as one of Las Vegas's timeless establishments.
