If you never made your way to the Western you missed out on a casino the likes will never be seen again. Was it dangerous to walk there? Maybe? Was it dangerous inside there? Maybe? Was it fun as hell? Absolutly! The walk could be sketchy for a couple of blocks and you'd be hit up to buy some "rocks"... More

In mid 2009 spent 8 days at the Plaza, while we were there had to go To the Western twice, but no Bingo, just lot of good food, free drinks, and loose slots, we walk out up $650. on slots, and $175 on Blackjack, very good times!!! In July going back to Las Vegas, this time to El Cortez for... More

I lived in Vegas for 12 years but moved north of there to Elko Nv. I do wish they would open a place like the Western here . Never left there with out having a good time . They cater to the average person where the casinos here reward the big spenders with prizes and bonuses . They have the... More

East Fremont Street where the Western sits has had a troubled past. Long considered unsafe, the area has experienced an influx of investment and sufficient law enforcement attention to make it down right respectable. Well, almost.... The Western is about the least expensive casino downtown to play some tables or slots, have an inexpensive drink and a decent snack. The... More

I am from Texas and have been to Vegas several times. I found this place on my second visit, back in the 1990's. I would never visit Vegas without a few trips to the Western. I was in Vegas Sept. 13th thru Sept. 18th, and I think I hit this place three times. Where could you get a shot of... More

OK so my friends and I hit the Western to check out the interesting characters that hang out at the Western as well as the low limits. They actually have a players club at the Western, however it is only available to the locals. We went up to the counter that held the 'prizes' for the players club and noticed... More

If this hotel had been located anywhere closer to The Strip I fear it would have been wrecking ball fodder many years ago. Thankfully however, it is located in what we affectionately referred to as Crack City. The Western is indeed located in a very 'average' part of town and I don't imagine most tourists would even know of it's... More

After a day of visiting the palaces of excess, what could be better than a stop at the Western? It's the antithesis of everything that Vegas is today but exactly what Vegas used to be. A little dirty...a little dangerous...and a lot of fun. I played the slots and won continually. Everytime I put money into the machine...within five or... More
