As a total rewards member, I was offered a three night stay comped at this facility. Harrah's looks like one of the nicest places in Laughlin, and has nice amenities. Once you have seen the glitz, glamor, and lost your money in Vegas, come drive 2 hours and relax and win in Laughlin. I was put in the central adult tower, which is nice since I do not want to spend vacation listening to people's kids screaming, slamming doors, and having running races down the hallways. The rooms are kind of cramped, but you shouldn't be in the room long with so much to do. The windows do not open all the way, which I am getting sick of with these casino hotels. If I wanted to jump and commit suicide, the parking garages offer much easier ways to do it instead of the hotel rooms. I like fresh air, and the breeze off the Colorado River would have been nice to flow through my room a little more than the 2-inch opening allowed for. Air conditioner is powerful and provided a cool room, and bathroom was spacious. However, the water pressure here is terrible! Not sure if I had a bad floor, or room, but all 3 mornings the shower had no pressure to it at all. I could have used a straw to rinse myself quicker than the water coming out of the shower head. They charge $11/day for internet if you need it, and the TV's offer many good choices for channels along with video checkout and the usual offerings of rip off in-room movies.

The casino is small, and is split into 2 parts, one for smoking and the other for no smoking. Nickel video poker players have very limited choices here, so I would try the Golden Nugget a few casinos down for better machines. If you are into video poker and like quarters or higher, you will be satisfied here. The hotel offers two pool and hot tub areas, one for families and the other for adults, which is welcome. Again, I come to relax, not have kids splashing around, crying, and yelling. There is also a private beach where you can lay on the sand or swim in the clean Colorado river.

The buffet is very good, and is only $15 or so for dinner. McDonalds, Starbucks, Baskin Robbins, and Cinnabon are all located on property. The parking garage sucks, as does the walk from it to the hotel. First, you have to take the stairs, or an elevator to the main walkway. Once you get to the walkway, you need to take another elevator to get down to the casino, or take the stairs and walk through the parking lot to get inside. It is not as far a walk as the Vegas facilities, but still a pain if you plan to use your car to travel elsewhere in Laughlin frequently. Drink service on the floor was a little slower than the Vegas properties, but the staff is very friendly and willing to help anyway they can. Early check in was permitted for me, and overall I loved the place.

We are not normally Harrahs fans but love this particular property in Laughlin. This was our 2nd stay there this year.

Our preference is a remodeled room/suite in the adult central or south towers as we do not enjoy spending our vacation time listening to other people's children yelling, screaming, slamming doors and running up and down the hallways.

Besides the standard casino buffet food, there is the Beach Cafe which is open 24/7 which has a large variety of food. There is also a Mexican restaurant which is very good. All 3 of these choices are located on the smoking side of the property. However, another reviewer had mentioned that all of the restaurants are on the smoking side - that is not true.

The Range is a great fine dining establishment which is located in the largest non-smoking area we have ever seen in any Laughlin/Vegas casino. It has a great view of the river. Down the walkway from the non-smoking area is McDonald's, Baskin Robbins and a Cinnabun. All of which are non-smoking as well as a Starbucks right near the check in area.

This property has 2 swimming pools - one for adults and one for families. It also has the nicest beach of any of the Laughlin hotels.

Although it is located far from the other properties there is a river taxi which will take you to any property you want for a cost of $4 per person.

The spa does not look like the pictures and does leave much to be desired visually. It is not as elegant as it should be, however we have been pleased with the services provided.

Just spent the weekend at this hotel and was very satisfied. This is the 2nd time I've stayed here and I just love how everything is situated. But even more than that, the staff is very, very polite. They are always asking if everything is fine or even just saying hello when they pass you in the hall. Sometimes, it's the little things that count.

The room was decent and clean although one couple across the hall from us complained about a bad stench in their room. They weren't so lucky.

All in all, my entire family was very pleased with the rooms, the buffet, the private beach, the staff, and the casino. We never left the hotel and my nieces never minded a bit. they loved the beach one day and didn't want to leave the pool the next day.

We recently went to Laughlin for a quick get a way. Harrah's Laughlin frequently offers us comped rooms, so took them up on it. Since we are not high rollers, we did not expect anything special. We were put in the Family Tower, all that was available. As reported on earlier posts, the elevators were VERY slow. The next day we asked at the desk about stair access, and were told a couple of elevators were not functioning. The stairs work fine, for regular walking, don't try it with luggage, or if you need to go to a higher floor. We were on the 6th, stairs were better then waiting, we always made it up or down stairs faster then people in line.

The room was small, as expected. Bed comfortable. Bathroom worked, very basic. I packed the coffee pot, because someone on TA had reported they don't provide them in the Family Tower. They don't. I guess they don't want the kids hyped on too much caffeine. Had no noise problems to speak of. The walls are thin in the entire hotel, adult towers too.

The Mexican resturant is very good, and the cafe was good too. Gambling was so-so, ate our money, gave a little back. Managed to take home most of what we brought. The other casinos we visited seemed about the same, tight machines.

We had a nice 2 night escape from real life. Glad the room was comped!
