"It’s overshadowed and outclassed by its sister property Paris next door... Its central location is a real plus."

"There's nothing exciting or glamorous about Bally's 2,814 outdated rooms, subpar restaurants, or pool with a view of the parking lot." Full review

"This hotel has a relaxed atmosphere, an olympic-size swimming pool, and large, luxurious rooms, many with good views of the Strip."

"With more than 2,800 rooms and suites, this is among the world's largest resorts."

"The "vintage Vegas" theme isn't carried out as well as it could be, although the entrance through a neon-lined tunnel with piped-in Dean Martin hits still a nice touch."
Frommer's Frommer's
"It's a stop on the monorail system, so you'll be able to go just about everywhere by foot or by swift train, and, thanks to those nice rooms, you've got someplace pleasant to return to." Full review
Fodor's Fodor's
"Rooms at this old-school property were renovated in 2013, which makes the reasonably priced Bally's Resort, in the heart of the Strip, an underrated choice for a Vegas vacation." Full review

"With a hundred retrofurnished rooms – some with flowery windowboxes – it’s tiny by Vegas standards, and slightly lower-key than its Fremont Street neighbors."

"Always the standout hotel in the Downtown area, a recent face-lift and expansion has made it more appealing than ever." Full review

"The only hotel-casino in the sector that comes close to rivaling the Strip in respectability is the Golden Nugget, with its clean... guest rooms, its boisterous casino, and its Rush Tower."
Fodor's Fodor's
"The Golden Nugget has pretty much reigned as Downtown's top property since the mid 1970s, evolving with the times, but maintaining classic appeal." Full review

"Looking like a million bucks, this casino hotel has set the downtown benchmark for extravagance." Full review

"For the price, the Golden Nugget is a steal, provided you don't mind staying in Vegas' older downtown neighborhood instead of the newer, livelier Strip." Full review

"Following the improvements, the Nugget has consolidated its position as the best casino on Fremont Street." Full review

"Despite a few flaws, it is one of the most solid values to be found in downtown Las Vegas." Full review

"The flagship casino of revitalized downtown, this sixty-year-old property recently underwent a $160 million top-to-bottom renovation."

"The “closest thing Downtown has to a Strip hotel”, this “classy Vegas original” in the "heart of the fun" on Fremont Street is a “well-cared-for and well-loved” property."
