- 1 November 2026, in a Google Maps embed of the hotel's card
The casino has a separate card on Google Maps, titled Lasseters Casino, which showed 3.8 when our map registry captured it on 29 October 2026. The number of reviews was not visible in that capture, so we do not print one.
We did not read individual reviews for this guide, so we will not tell you what reviewers 'often mention'. Any summary of themes without reading the texts would be invented. Open the card yourself and sort by newest: recent reviews tell you more about the room you will get next month than the average does.
Open the hotel on Google Maps to read the reviews.
How to read a 3.9
- A hotel attached to a casino and a convention centre collects reviews from very different visitors: conference delegates, road-trippers, locals out for dinner, gaming customers. Their expectations do not match.
- Reviews of a hotel that refurbished 139 of its 205 rooms in 2018 can describe different rooms. Ask which kind you are getting.
- A middle score with more than a thousand reviews is stable; it will not move much from one bad week.
- Stars on a map card mix the hotel and the complex. The restaurants and the pool may pull the score one way and rooms another.

What awards cannot tell you
Awards reward a property against its peers in a given year. They do not tell you whether the shower in your room was replaced in 2018, whether the pool is busy during a conference, or whether a balcony faces the ranges. For those, use the notes field in our request form, and we ask the hotel. Our own view, with no stars, is on the verdict page.
