The entire staff was wonderful. I felt like everyone went out of their way to make us feel welcomed. From the point we drove in to the Valet, the doorman, check-in, restaurant staff, cashiers, dealers.. I mean everyone was super nice. That's not to say everything was perfect.. I have to knit-pick but even with those, it wasn't enough to take a star away. We will definitely be returning.

Not recommended

The room itself was okay. Tv would not stay on, turned off on its own, water pressure was terrible and hot water was warm at best. The worse part was asking for new towels on 2nd night and was given a set that contained bodily fluids easily seen on the towel and not found until I used it following shower. DISGUSTING. I have pictures of what was on towel if wanted. Only plus is it’s 100% child free zone adults only. No pool or hot tub. Told the hotel staff what happened and was simply told it’s Vegas and it happens it’s not the Ritz.

Too much noise and bed bugs

Uhg ... no sound barriers at all, we could hear everything... including the art installation that went off with a loud boom on thr hour every hour till 1am. And unfortunately 1 of our party left w bedbug bites. The room was in the old room near the parking structure

The best part of the El Cortez, has to be their staff. I have stayed here twice and have yet to find a staff person who isn't helpful and cheerful. In particular, the folks who run the valet service and the bellhops, are phenomenal. Siegels is a great place to eat. Good food. If you are in Vegas to play hockey, I highly recommend this casino as your walk from the car to your room is not that far.

It's an older hotel. I should have upgraded to a newer room. I liked it was easy to get around. There were only really two food options but others within walking distance. Nice location if you want the access to Fremont Street but don't want to stay in the noisy area. Parking was free that was a big plus. Casino bathrooms were immaculate. I would stay here again.

Overall, the El Cortez hotel is a very nice hotel. Comfortable, located in a nice area or you can walk down Fremont street, then enjoy yourself with other activities. The only thing that needs to be fixed is the pressure in the shower. Needs to be stronger, so you spend less time rinsing off.
