No Better Place to Stay! - user review Been to Vegas many times. The rooms are huge, new, clean, etc. Room Service is a fraction of the price compared to most casionos. The gambling is great.

Most underrated hotel in Vegas IMO - user review I love the Orleans, thats right you heard me!

The BEST Hotel and Casino!! - user review I took my wife for her 21st birthday and she had the most sensational and comfortable time. The huge standard deluxe rooms are the same of a petite suite at the Las Vegas Blvd hotels, this by itself makes it a great deal because you will be paying far less.

kinda´ dumpy - user review The best thing about this place is that they have a bowling alley if you're craving that activity on your vacation. Otherwise it's one of those places you walk into and then walk back out. It looks old on the outside and the inside to me is outdated and grungy. I wouldn't recommend staying here unle... lasvegas.citysearch.com
A great hotel but... - user review the casino is VERY stuffy. Just going through it to leave makes you stink like cigarettes.

Oh...it also has a... lasvegas.citysearch.com
Grossly Underrated - user review The Orleans is easily one of the best values in Vegas. The price is right and the hotel itself is a great place.
