With so many casinos in the Las Vegas area, it can be hard to pick and choose where to stay & play. To help you sift through the options and find the right one for the right occasion, I will review a different casino every week or so. The two previous casinos that I have reviewed are Encore and the Wynn. The atmosphere and clientele found there are vastly different than the Orleans. As far as casinos go, the Orleans is a hole in the wall. That can be either a good or bad thing, but for Orleans it's neither.

A festive french quarter facade rises above the spacious parking lot. Like most Vegas architecture, this is a flimsy illusion because once inside you will find the environment rather tame. Granted, there is a semi-vibrant atmosphere and cheap drinks ($1.50 Buds at every casino bar), but the Mardi Gras debauchery is noticeably absent. Not even a hint. Single men who are not big drinkers or hardy gamblers will be better served heading to the Palms. On a positive note, there is a TGIF inside the casino and it has happy hour all day/every day, so you can nibble an appetizer and get your buzz on relatively cheap. And the Orleans is close to the strip, so it can be the spot you go to before the spot before the spot before the spot. (Fans of the movie Swingers will understand)

On a positive note, the Orleans is a working class blue-collar casino where one can gamble and get plastered without breaking the bank. Rooms are cheap, and there is an arena for sporting events. Most of the people there are friendly, and if you don't mind the occasional Michigan hick, then the Orleans might be the place for you. Though I would recommend the Silverton casino, where you get more bang for your buck.

Have stayed all over Las Vegas including the strip and downtown, but keep coming back to the Orleans! Being a low-limit gambler, I haven't found anywhere else that treats you as good as the Orleans does for my play.

I usually play two hands of $5, 2 deck blackjack. Of course finding $5 limit on the strip is out of the question, but the Orleans lets you play two hands and you don't have to bet double.

Also they deal a two deck game without those lousy 6-5 payouts for blackjacks. The game proceeds at a nice pace and I have never been turned down for a buffet comp. Usually with 4 hours of play I can get a comp for two to any restuarant in the place except for the gourment restuarant.

However, when you can go to the Prime Rib loft, I don't feel I'm missing out too much! Of course that brings up the subject of food and if you saw me, you would know that I like to eat. I haven't found a buffet I like more for everyday eating. As Dave M. mentions you can't beat the gumbo and crawfish on the buffet. Even if you don't like cajun food the rest is really good and the variety is large.

This hotel and casino is the best by far. They offer something for everyone and they treat their guest very well. They have the best sports book , buffet and pool I have enjoyed in the Las Vegas area.

Off strip and still very close to the action. We stay there every chance we get. If you get a chance to try this place, you will be sure to stay there again.

After staying at properties all over Las Vegas from the strip to downtown to off-strip, we always come back to the Orleans. Why? Because the rooms are big, clean and inexpensive and because you get a lot for your gaming dollar, especially at the low limit table games and the huge selection of video poker.

The dealers, servers and bartenders are generally fun and friendly. The sports book is more than adequate and the place has ten or eleven very good dining options, from chains like TGI Friday's to cajun food, a very nice steakhouse, a Mexican restaurant, a GREAT, inexpensive buffet (great gumbo and crawfish).

We also like not having to deal with the huge crowds on the strip, but if we get in the mood to go to the strip, the Orleans' free shuttle gets you to mid strip in ten minutes.

The pool area is very nice and if you run low on gaming cash, you can go bowling, go to the movies or catch a band in the lounge, all right on property. Boyd Gaming has a real winner in the Orleans in our book. We will return many times I am sure.

Love the Orleans, they have very clean rooms at discount prices. The food restaurants hit the spot at very reasonable prices with good service. They offer a free shuttle to the strip if you want. It makes my gambling money go a little further and every little bit helps..

Got the inexpensive room rate in conjunction with a slot tournament. The rooms were as good as the strip hotel casinos. The slots were good and hit regularily.

The people were very nice and having many different eateries was nice. Very comparable to the Southpoint as an off main strip place to stay and play.

Aside from the recently imposed $5 a night "resort fee" added on to the rates, the Orleans is a good vaue with large clean rooms and a fantastic buffet.

We have visited this casino just to gamble many times but on our last visit to LV we stayed here. We have read many reviews all rating this casino very highly. We were not disapointed. It is first rate in almost all categories. The rooms were great, the specials were in fact special and everything was most reasonable leaving money available for a little gambling. We will make this our first choice for our next visit.

Orleans sent out a great email promo and we took advantage of it in Dec. 06. We had never played or stayed here and were very happy with our choice.

Everything you need is here, lots of great dining options, low table limits and a great variety of VP and slots at all levels.

Cocktail service was always around and the sports book was great. We loved our stay here and will do so again!

We really enjoy the Orleans' experience from the rooms, restaurants, entertainment and gambling. Weekday rooms are a bargain compared to comparable properties located on or off Strip. Rooms are larger than average, same with the bathrooms. The pool area is nicer than other locals properties though inferior to the those at the mega properties. Spa services are fairly priced. Entertainment options abound including 2 lounges, a movie complex, bowling alley, and showroom.

The video poker inventory has been greatly enhanced by the addition of 20 machines offering FPVP at the 25c and 50c levels. Comps or cashback are earned at the of 0.30% and Boyd seems to be sending more marketing offers since assuming control.

One concern is the future of the free shuttle to the Barbary Coast which has been sold to Harrahs.

This place has the best mid-range priced buffet in Vegas. The rooms are just fine, not extravagant as the Biggies on the strip, but fine nonetheless.

Decent priced entertainers, plenty of drink venues. Employees seem friendly & my husband says the BEST LOOKING CW in all of LV works here.

The VP may not be FP, but still decent. If you don't want to fight the CROWDS on the strip--stay here.

The Orleans has a "GREAT FUNBOOK" for hotel guests and THE ACG COUPONS MAKE THE ORLEANS AN EXCELLENT VALUE.

This is the best casino in Vegas with the nicest standard rooms, good service, fine food.

Unfortunately the new owers have decided to kill the good gambling. Video poker is being decimated. The future is uncertain, but a great place to stay for little dollars.

I visit Las Vegas each year and have stayed at the Orleans for the past 2 and plan on staying there this year.

The hotel rooms are roomy and clean, the staff is friendly, casino is clean and, most of all, it is off the Strip and I feel safe staying there. There are Security Guards posted at the elevators and you must present your room key prior to getting by the elevators.

I am a woman and travel with my sister-in-law and we both feel very secure.

One of the best bargains in rooms in LV, although off-strip. Rooms are a good size, large bathroom.

The best buffet for the price is here plus 4 or more dining venues. The casino has a great selection of games even if the VP is not full pay.

I'd recommend this casino/hotel !!!

I'm 55. It's got everything I need. Nice clean large rooms . Reasonably priced gambling. Nice pool. Nice restaurants and even a liquor store.

Best of all, the price is right. I've stayed there about 7 times.

The Orleans is a great hotel - the rooms are large, nicely decorated, and very clean, there's a nice selection of restaurants, the breakfast buffet is a bargain, there's a great pool area, and the spa is very nice AND reasonably priced.

I often travel to Las Vegas alone and feel very safe staying there.

Video poker paytables could be better, but there's a HUGE selection to choose from.

It is off the beaten path, but that isn't always a bad thing. It's nice to get away from the Strip's hussle and bussle.

The rooms are very roomy and nice decore. The casino is a nice size, not too big, but big enough.

The food choices are good from grabbing a hotdog on the go by the sports lounge to nice sitdown dinners.
