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

"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

Rough Guide
"TI remains a fun and wonderfully convenient place to stay, even if the rooms are smallish and rather subdued."
Frommer's

Time Out
"For those who think not of gimlets but of golf when they hear the word 'club', the hotel offers access to the exclusive Shadow Creek course, a perk reserved for guests of MGM Mirage resorts." Full review
Star Service
"Rates are pegged to view, as floor-to-ceiling windows face Buccaneer Bay, The Strip, the pool or the mountains." Full review
BlackBook
"The pirate-themed Treasure Island was a prime example of Vegas' attempt at being "family-friendly" back in the early 90's - and we all know what happened to that."
Zagat
3.7
"Though its original "Pirates-of-the-Caribbean-on-steroids look" may be a thing of the past, this now “tastefully decorated” Strip-side casino hotel still lures families with "well-appointed" rooms."
Lonely Planet
"The micro rooms here feel deceptively expansive, thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows, airy earth tones, and soaking tubs." Full review
The Telegraph
8.0
"One of the few theme hotels in town to evolve, TI has slowly softened the piracy motifs, though some elements remain." Full review
