I have stayed at California Hotel many times. The hotel is old but for me, that is part of the charm staying downtown. The rooms are well maintained and have always been clean. The casino is divided between two floors. They still have coin video poker machines. I find downtown to be a break from the chaos of the strip.... More

My husband I stayed here April 8 through April 11 during our visit to Las Vegas. If you are looking for clean room, comfortable place to stay and don’t mind little further from strip, this is good an option. Hotel building is older but all seems to clean. Our room was clean, large and spacious compare to the strip hotels... More

My fiance, parents, and I stayed here from April 22-April 27, 2013. I received a special offer, and we decided to check it out. We are very glad that we did. It is not right on Fremont Street, so you do not hear any of the loudness at night. We felt safe, as there were security guards at every entrance,... More

My wife received a special offer from the hotel so we thought we would give it a try. The rooms were nice, clean and comfortable. The drinks were good, the gaming was ok, but the food was excellent! We had the prime rib special one night, which was excellent! The vegetable at the salad bar were fresh, and the service... More

I have stayed in many, many hotels in Las Vegas, in every price range from well under a $100 to well over $300 per night and I simply haven't found any as great a place to stay as the California. I know, I know it is down town and it is not the glitzy or high glamour and emotional place... More

9 - 12 April 2013 Room 501 We checked in at about 10 pm. First room assigned was 1006 - a smoking room. Back down to reception for a change to a non-smoking room. Reception staff were pleasant and efficient. The room was a bit better than the rooms in the other two downtown hotels I have stayed in. Bed... More

Small hotel and casino downtown with great restaurants and small shops. There is a Lappert's ice cream shop, tiny Ethel M chocolate shop, and cafes that serve Hawaiian and local style food. The coffee shop is 24 hours and has great specials including miso butterfish and ox tail soup. They also have comfort food such as saimin or won ton... More

This trip to Vegas I wanted to stay near the Freemont St. Experience instead of The Strip. I read about the California and booked it at a very good rate. If it weren't for the great rate, I would have been very upset. As it is, you really do get what you pay for and that isn't much. The beds... More

My family and I spent a week here. We loved the friendliness of the staff and how tidy everything was kept. I particularly enjoyed the hotel’s proximity to the Freemont Experience. The area surrounding the hotel is reminiscent of the golden age of Vegas. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Having spent 3 nights at the nearby Main Street Station Hotel which was extremely noisy, I requested a quiet room and ended up on the 10th floor of the East Tower which was well shielded from the nearby freeway but not from the sound stages of Freemont Street. The advantages of downtown hotels are also the disadvantages. You're right next... More
