Even under the myriad, bright lights and sounds of the Fremont Street Experience, the Four Queens Hotel and Casino stands out. This classic casino hotel has stood on "Glitter Gulch" since opening 1968, and today still attracts a regular crowd. Under two million light bulbs, Fremont Street Experience, a four- block pedestrians-only stretch of downtown Las Vegas, presents sound-and-light shows from dusk to midnight, as well as live music, classic-car displays and holiday festivals throughout the day. Four Queens opens directly onto Fremont Street.
Although modest in size, the Four Queens casino is always active, featuring a 30,000-square-foot casino of slots, video poker, single-deck blackjack, craps, roulette and pai gow-and many tables with low minimums. The Four Queens is home to the renowned Hugo's Cellar, which the locals rank in newspaper polls as their favorite gourmet restaurant. Diners get to cook their own beef, shrimp, swordfish and chicken on hot granite slabs. Entrees include steaks, Veal Oscar, roast duck flamed with anise, and raspberry chicken. Magnolia's Veranda, which overlooks the casino floor, includes a sushi bar and offers steaks, ribs, seafood, pasta and Hawaiian specialties.
The hotel's 19-story twin towers boast 690 guestrooms that include desks, tiled bathrooms, pay movies and Internet access. Room service is available from 5 a.m. to midnight.
Seniors citizens especially appreciate the hotel's compact size and location next to Fremont Street's low-price food and fun. Modestly priced accommodations make Four Queens Hotel and Casino one of the more popular hotels - and better values in downtown Vegas for people of all ages. And unlike some Vegas hotels, this one doesn't have a dress code.
