The Flamingo Casino Resort

Best known for being opened by gangster Bugsy Siegel, this hotel-casino has been operating for well over 50 years. It is located in a prime area on the Strip, next to the Imperial Palace and Caesar's Palace.

The festive Caribbean-themed gambling environment spreads out across 77,000 square feet and offers 2,100 slot and video poker machines, roulette wheels, craps, blackjack, and much more. Table minimums on the whole are slightly higher than the standard Las Vegas fare, so be ready for some high-rolling action!

The hotel also offers a spa, tennis club and spa. For the best Vegas experience reserve a room with a view of the Strip, which many of the 3,565 hotel rooms and suites offer.
