Thoughts on Golden Nugget?
Would you stay here?
I do like to play poker there, but I'd rather stay at the Plaza since they have better black jack games and video poker pay schedules...which helps to get room and resort fees comped. GN jacks up their prices nearly as high as Derek Stevens does at his properties so I now avoid them for anything other than poker and food.
They may know who you are and will try to upgrade you. You guys have grown a lot over the past year. I wouldn't be surprised if someone with some power hasn't seen your videos.
hey Ruby! We met at the Golden Nugget on Tuesday! It was awesome talking to you about Fremont! You're such a sweet person! Glad to have seen you.
We always stay at the Nugget. My wife loves the pool
@@jtstacey83 very true. This isn't the first time a property upgraded them.
Mr Ruby’s appearance on the “throne” was freaking hilarious. 🎉
Yes….I would like to see the “entry level room” at the Golden Nugget. Love the videos. Be safe in your journeys.
loved seeing Mr.Ruby
Yes I think the cheapest rooms are what people are looking for. You should do the cheapest rooms at every hotel
Maybe poor like you
Great idea
Ruby, my first two trips to Vegas in 1990 and 1991 for my birthday were at the Golden Nugget. We loved it and our vacation package included a free car rental! Crazy eh? We drove up to Reno for two nights. We had a great time. Every time I'm in Vegas, I have to go into the Golden Nugget for a birthday photo. It's a great hotel and casino. Love your video.
I think you got some kind of accessible room, looking at all the railings in the bathroom. I stayed in the Rush tower (pre pandemic) and definitely remember glass shower doors. I remember the bathroom being a lot more elegant looking than what you showed.
I totally lost it with the mirror placement in the bathroom!!! HILARIOUS !!! Thank you Ruby!!!
It’s great when Mr Ruby makes a cameo
Awesome that you pronounced Neuske's correctly. Coming from a town in Wisconsin not many people can correctly pronounce the bacon. Kudos to you. Last time I was on Vegas Fremont Street it was just being built. The only part of it up was the pillars. I did go to many of the casinos there. When we stayed up in Vegas we stayed at the Westward Ho. Many of the places on the strip are no longer there. Stardust, Frontier, and Westward Ho.
I love watching Travel Ruby, but if the title says "I booked the cheapest room", don't take the upgrade. Show us the cheapest room as promised. I stayed in the true cheapest room mid 2022 (Carson Tower) and it was awful for over $100 per night mid week. Filthy hallways, no coffee maker, no fridge, loose toilet seat, a glob of toothpaste on the sink.
The most overpriced bare bones room ever.
Agreed, Carson tower I thought was terrible. Our room had plumbing issues and smelled like sewer. For similar (and sometimes even less) money to staying in the Rush tower, I would just choose Circa, it absolutely blow the Nugget away!
It reminds me of when I stayed at the Nugget 30 years ago. It was definitely bare bones and nothing was in good shape. The only good thing I remember was that the public bathrooms were spectacular, but this was back before they redid Fremont so there were no tourists except for the people who used the coupons.
I stayed at the El Cortez Hotel and Casino in 2018 and got a suite for *$17!* No conventions in town, and it was during the off season. Helluva deal! Booked it through Priceline.
Qualifier was “I booked” instead of “I stayed in”. And true she booked the cheapest, and then got upgraded for the $30 early check-in fee.
great vidio! glad you took the upgrade. never stayed downtown when visiting but now i will really consider it. Thanks Ruby!!
Excellent review as always! Keep up the great work on the Vegas scene and hopefully will see you there.
Pool looks fun! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for the tour, always great!
So happy that you are starting to show us some of the menu at the restaurants. More of this please ❤️. Lovely video.
Awesome review ruby. Very helpful
Good review! Many years ago when Steve Wynn owned the Nugget the buffet was one of the best in Vegas. We went to have the buffet shortly after the new owners took over and it was terrible. They moved it upstairs and the food quality was poor. If you choose to do another review, could you please do a walkthrough of the buffet to see if it has improved. Really enjoy your reviews… keep up the good work.
The buffet at the Golden Nugget closed permanently during or just before the pandemic shutdowns. It was not a casualty of the pandemic like many other buffets were -- this was a planned permanent closure. The Nugget buffet was a good deal if you were staying at the property because they had BOGO coupons (or $3 off if solo). I think the regular price was around $15-$16 for lunch the final years before it closed. That said, their offerings were limited and not upscale for those looking for a higher end Vegas buffet experience, but a good value for getting a good fill-up
Only downtown buffet nowadays is at MSS as most joints used the pandemic as an excuse to shut them down. GN's buffet had definitely been heading in the wrong direction.
Steve is about high quality food as he is Vegan. The Wynn is consistently rated as having the best food and # of restaurants in all of Vegas, and every place has vegan options. Win win. You should see how young Steve looks given he doesn't eat dead bodies.
Planning my first trip to Las Vegas in October and I was totally clueless on how to go about it. Your videos have been such a great resource to help plan not just the stay but all the activities and tours I can do in and around vegas. I booked the Golden Nugget for my first stay especially for the pool and I am totally excited and looking forward to it. Thank you so much for putting such an amazing content on your channel!
HEY! Travel Rudy dropped a new video! My day just got a lot happier!! 😊❤️
The pool is really nice! Thanks for sharing!
Love your videos so much fun and insite on rooms and hotels and love your slot play! Thank you both👏👏
I do appreciate the honesty - keep it coming - so hard to find these days
Vic and Anthony's is amazing..their crab cake is so divine.
good review - many thanks
Another great review. Thank you!
I love your videos they are helpful for different ideas when going to vegas
Stayed there for a week on my birthday a few years ago. Got upgraded to a nicer room (yay!). A/C sounded like a person running a circular saw outside the window (boo!) Maintenance came up right away (yay!). They then told me "Oh yeah, those will do that, we can't even move you because it happens all over the hotel" (double boo!).
So, if you don't bring your earplugs for the Fremont Street noise, bring them for your room's A/C unit. On the other hand, happy hour at the sushi restaurant is fantastic.
I love your reviews and we finally got to see Mr. Ruby!
I stayed there back around 2009 and had a great time. Loved the pool, the lobby and the access to the downtown.
I would defo stay here looks fab thanks for the vids 😎❤️
Hi Ruby's! Great video as always. I would totally stay there. Looks like a good option downtown. Thanks for the video!
Thank you so much. I always book my rooms when visiting Vegas by your videos. Your through and always accurate.
Another great review Ms. Ruby ! I've stayed at the Golden Nugget twice in the past (prior to the big remodel) and the kids absolutely loved the main pool. Now that I'm alone, I would definitely go back ! Thanks Ms. Ruby !!
Great review of this casino
Love your content keep up the Great Work🙌🏼
Thank you for this review. Plan on coming to Vegas in July for my moms and niece bday.
You provide great info and tips!
I really enjoy your down-to-earth critiques of Vegas. You do a great job and your husband's camera work is very good as well
Cool thanks for the review of the hotel
Very nice review of the Golden Nugget, Ruby! I appreciate your honest evaluation of the property…😉
We always stay at the golden nugget during edc week and we love it! Always stay at the rush tower with newer rooms and the fridge. Our shower had the sliding glass doors though.
Love this place ! Great video Ruby 💪🎰 #vegas #casino #lasvegas
Another great review Ruby. My wife and I really enjoy your vids.
The Golden Nugget was our choice place to stay in Las Vegas for many years. That was before the pool upgrade and some of the other changes that happened, so we mostly stayed in the Carson St rooms, which were fine. Golden Nugget always had the best rooms at that time and we liked pretty much everything about it. Haven't stayed there in a looooooong time, so it was fun to watch your video, which was great!
Good job Ruby, Liked your outfit. Looking good. Keep up the good work.
Love the video as always! Your content is must-watch. As for the biscuits and gravy, my God, it looks like you could have wrung the salt back into the shaker. There was probably more sodium in there than taco bell nachos
good review. enjoyed it.
This was wheelchair accessible room- that’s why it was so spacious. I could tell by the grab bars at the toilet and the tub. Per code, they have to have certain clearances for wheelchairs to maneuver around the room and bathroom. Typically only about 10-15% of rooms are like that, I’m sure most rooms even in that category aren’t as big. That’s probably the reason for the shower curtain too.
Really fantastic review! I've been to Vegas quite a few times, and I have a soft spot for the Golden Nugget. I've never stayed there, but I've lost lots of money at the casino. It seems like a down to earth option over the strip. Loved the video!
Excellent review…yes pls review Carson Tower. I come to Vegas quite often and your reviews help…thanks
You are definitely right about the walkways being crowded in the casino. All it takes is a couple people to stop in "traffic" looking around, and they cause a huge peoplejam
Love that the older hotels are still cool. Good. They have such a long history. Golden Nugget. Flamingo. Etc.
Good Saturday morning Ruby. Glad to see you're doing well. Thanks so much for your review of the Golden Nugget. 😊👍
Interesting to see your take on it since we stayed there very recently in the same sort of room but higher up a few floors. The room we had was ‘recently’ renovated so it had slightly different style decor although the couch was the same. The full size mirror was in place of where your adjoining room door was. Our fridge was about half the size of yours. Our shower had half glass instead of the curtain. It also had a wall and door for the toilet, so it wasn’t just out in the open like that.
The noise even high up was loud enough to feel the rumble of the bass, but it wasn’t clear enough to be distracting, it was actually sort of soothing to tune out other noises.
I’ve seen mostly negative things about Carson tower. Maybe your stay will be an update to that? Hopefully they have fixed their issues with it.
It really does get crowded on weekends. It’s bad enough where you can’t walk.... BUT even with it being crowded, let it ride and 3 card poker were $5 all weekend. Craps was $15, didn’t play BJ since it’s all 6:5.
I always stay in the Carson tower it's not remodeled but it's clean and cheap great location and easy parking and getting checked in and most the time I don't pay resort fees email offers regularly and they are always cleaning and it's a good place to gamble also love to gamble at the D very close you can experience different casinos and not have to walk a mile between them like the strip 😉
Hi Mr & Mrs Ruby Great review & love, love, love your shades😎. TFS from Wisconsin. ✌
I literally thought that was an actual meal waitng on the table at the Salt Grass table when you sat down. LOL!
Loved your opening tribute to Bond. I love that chase scene, even with the infamous error with the car. I have always wanted to stay here and I believe you have convinced me for my next visit:)
Good video, Ruby. Have a wonderful weekend.
Nugget is a nice little place. Would recommend to anyone staying downtown. And Ruby looking good as ever. Cheers
I love this review ❤️
I would stay there. The Steak House looked great. I guess it comes down to comfort in the Casino. Thank you for another great review that was complete and straightforward.
Thank you for this awesome video!
Wonderful vlog. Maybe I will never visit but I don't get tired of watching your videos over and over again
i love the clip from "Diamonds are Forever"!! 😃
The golden nugget is always hopping! Great video! 👍
Finally a Mr. Ruby sighting lol. Excellent video. You are so informative and its appreciated.
Thanks Ruby. Always love your reviews. I have done several things in Vegas based on your reviews. And, yes I would stay at the Golden Nugget if I were to stay downtown.
Stayed there back in November in the Gold Tower, and the room did have a refer and Keurig. Vic & Anthony's was fabulous!
We stood there this past summer and we absolutely love love loved it!
Thanks for reviewing this hotel I've never stayed there before but I'll consider it now.😋😋😋😋
I am not much of a Fremont fan, but I love Golden Nugget. It's actually the only one I've stayed at on Fremont. (Gotta try Circa next.) They did the same thing with me regarding an early check-in fee going towards an upgrade. My room was very similar to yours. I had also booked the room assignment at check-in, IIRC. I love Landry's restaurants, so I love the dining options. The Chart House there was great. I haven't tried the Vegas Vic & Anthony's, but the one at the Nugget in Atlantic City 90 minutes away from me is phenomenal every time I go. The fish tank in the pool is great, although I found out that you really can't enjoy the view in the water slide. It's too fast (which is also a good thing). Was that Diamonds Are Forever at the beginning?
Stayed here years ago and loved it. Everything was gold, even in the rooms. It's nothing the same now but is love to stay there again. The pool is pretty awesome
0:35 we did the same thing staying here! “Which way is our room?” Until we found one side of the table there had a hole cut out for a trash can, which happened to be our side, so from then on we went “to the hole!”
Stayed there a few times, agree no complaints. Claim jumper servings are huge.
I would love to see your stay in the cheapest Carson tower room. Also a video of comparing downtown hotels and your recommendations. Love your videos. Thank you
Good review. The GN was a regular stay for me way back in the day (pre-Fremont Experience days).
Stayed at The Nugg the last 2 trips and love it.
Great vid. Yes, please check out the Carson tower!
Ruby my wife and I love your videos. We got to Vegas twice a year and always hope we see you walking around. Great content. Keep it up.
Great review!1
Thanks for information
Great review I love the Golden Nugget in Atlantic City they have a Vic and Anthony’s as well. The bread pudding is absurdly delicious i’ll be in Vegas for the first time in a few months can’t wait. I’m so excited watching all your videos to get up to speed.
Saw you and Mr. Ruby on a live stream not long ago and was wondering what video you were shooting. This had to be it!
Ruby I like watching you Vegas casino tours and slots
I've never been to the Golden Nugget in Vegas, but since I live in NJ, and about 60 miles from Atlantic City, I've been to the Golden Nugget in Atlantic City hundreds of times.
It was funny to see the casino has the same carpeting, lights, marble, and most of the same decor as the one in Altantic City. But for some reason, the one in Vegas looks nicer. The casino at the Atlantic City GN is small.
The basic rooms in Atlantic City have the same leather (well I really think it's vinyl) couch. The bathrooms in the standard rooms are tiny, But the room decor is basically the same color, furniture, etc.
The GN in Altantic CIty draws an older crowd. It's actually one of the smaller properties, if not the smallest. Many people think the decor is very dated, even though it only about 15 years old as the GN was originally the Trump Marina, When Tillman Frittia brought the property, he renovated it top to bottom.
thank you for the review
Yaaas New Ruby!
Thanks for the review. I would like for you to try the cheaper tower in comparison ❤
Love your reviews of Downtown casino properties
I really enjoyed your review of the Golden Nugget!
But yes, please do a review on the cheapest room at the Golden Nugget. I would love to see that.
😎Great Review Of The Golden 📀 Nugget & Love Vic & Anthony & Mr. Ruby On The Throne🚽 Epic
Great videos like always. I would love for you to go back and stay at the cheaper tower to see what that’s like. Thanks for sharing.
We were there over New Years, first time staying on Fremont. We had your exact room in RUSH and we were impressed. We also loved the Claim Jumper restaurant. I too had the biscuits and gravy and they weren’t the best but everything else we had was great! Vic and Anthony’s is our favorite! I liked it way better than Oscar’s! Love and enjoy your reviews!
Iconic place stayed there when Steve Wynn owned it and was at opening day when he opened the Mirage.. Best intimate pool in Vegas still.
Ruby! Love the review ! Where did you get your top😂
Great content and high quality production as always! What are the hours for the speakeasy? Thank you!
Love the music in your videos
$43 a day resort fee!!!!! Basically doubles the price of the room. Thanks for letting us know.
I know right? Resort fees are so revolting!
I always stay at the Nuggett in Lake Charles Always a good visit and the food is good❤
Great show
omg finally mr ruby shows his face lol, we where in vegas again this feb for 8 days and watching uou had defo been a great help to explore and eat at new places thanks ruby
Stayed in the Rush King a few months ago. The big problem we had was not enough electrical outlets. A few were hidden behind a 200 pound end table. Better restaurants aren't open during the week.
