After attending a private matter in CA, my family and I decided to spend a weekend in Las Vegas where we stayed at the California Hotel. This hotel is located in Downtown Las Vegas, which is far from the Strip, but next to the Fremont Experience. Downtown Las Vegas is very calm and provide a more nostalgic feeling you get... more

A family member booked me in a compd room. *hint* sign up for their players club and quickly get great hotel offers. The room: The decor was way better than expected similar to Boyd gaming's Atlantic city hotel. The bed was comfortable as well and with my back injury it was a blessing! Request a non-smoking room family members room... more

My husband and I have stayed here many times in previous years for just a few days. Each time we commented on the same things hoping for improvements. We don't like staying at the California Hotel anymore, it's gotten worse than before. It stinks really bad (smoky) and it comes through the vents and carpets. They offer to spray the... more

Spent a three night stay at The Cal with my girlfriend. The room was complimentary through B Connected. I generally stay (and play) at The Fremont but got the offer from The Cal so decided to give it a try. Overall, I was pretty happy with The California and would consider it for a future visit, although probably only if... more

I read so many reviews of this hotel before I went on my recent trip. I personally did not pick this hotel. I was attending a family reunion and it was being hosted at this hotel. Don't even believe the bad reviews of this hotel. It is all about Hawaii - low key with some bling here and there. If... more

Ok, so California Hotel and Casino isn't "on" Fremont Street. But it is definately worth the 1 block walk to get to it. The room was spacious, clean an QUIET! Very nice Hawaiian decor (not tacky at all), comfortable bed. Our only issue was our AC wasn't quiet as cold as we like it, but we like it C-O-L-D!! The... more

The hotel is great, staff very friendly, very clean room, has many restaurants. The first night we ate in the cafe, I ordered the fish (big mistake), It was white fish (very fishy taste, not cooked all the way.) I ended up with food poison. I haven't told the hotel yet, I will. Other than that every thing else was... more

My room came with a TV, refrigerator, bed, iron, ironing board and decorated with wall paper. The TV was an old tube tv (no flat screen here), my room a/c was colder than the refrigerator, the mattress was lumpy, the iron was only capable of pressing one shirt before breaking, and the wall paper was peeling. The hotel has a... more

The California is a modest, smaller hotel and a gem. It's a couple of blocks away from Fremont Street but you can either cut through the Las Vegas Club or Binions and land right at Fremont Street should you prefer to stay inside. It is NOT a huge, glitzy Vegas showplace. It's a smaller, quiet, clean hotel and was absolutely... more

I met my parents out here right after Christmas and stayed until New Year's eve. Contrary to what you may think about Las Vegas, during the winter it is cold. One day was 38, the next 39, two days later, 52 degrees...and it's a lot warmer at 52. The room was decent. Two beds a writing table with chairs and... more
