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.

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.
