This is a hard review for me because the week before, I was in Cancun and stayed at the Ritz-Carlton which I gave 5 stars to. Anyways, hopefully not to bias but this hotel is adequate. It was clean, the air-conditioner worked fine. The location, downtown was great, you could walk to any downtown casino. You could also catch a... More

This was my first time staying at the California hotel. I was a little scared because I know it's an older hotel but to my surprise, the room was very clean and quite new. I'm guessing they renovated recently? We stayed at a high-end hotel on the strip the night before and of course, it's got more sparkle than the... More

Rooms are VERY nice, FUN casino but TERRIBLE "MARKET ST. CAFE" due to ***** GNATS ***** at the Counter *** ALWAYS **** no matter which end you sit at. Dirty dishes are put under the counter at seat nearest kitchen, it is disgusting for the customer sitting at that end as the staff scrapes the dirty dishes in front of... More

I can't count the number of times I've stayed at the "Cal". My wife and I are from Hawaii, and this Sam Boyd property has always geared itself to the Hawaii visitor. Therefore, the staff has the spirit of Aloha and have always been very good to us. To me the value of the Cal is its location downtown and... More

Great hotel in downtown Vegas. Certainly spreads the Aloha feeling. Check out the Redwood Inn for food. The California sister hotel next door has an amazing buffet with an egg station for custom order omelettes. Soooo delicious! Walking distance to Fremont Experience. More

Stayed here 4 days in July. Hotel was ok, good situation if you like the Fremont street area. Easy parking included, lots of things to do in the Fremont street just walking around. Totally different atmosphere from the big casinos on strip. More

One of Boyd's Gaming hotel-casino, the California Hotel in Downtown Las Vegas, is home to many Hawaii residents. I mean, ask any one from Hawaii about the "Cal" and you're sure to hear about the "almost hit the big one." Don't expect too much of the hotel rooms although the rooms are spacious and clean. The newer wing's rooms have... More

We stay at this hotel at least 4 times a year. Late night front desk clerks are cheerful and helpful. Restaurants prices reasonable with lots of choices. Rooms are large and if you leave a tip daily for the maid you get excellent service. No coffemaker which is essential for our travels, but deli coffee shop opens early enough for... More

"The Cal" is standard fare for downlown Las Vegas. Like everything else downtown, it is within easy walking distance of everything else there. The Cal has a parking structure, so you can leave your car there without worries, and just take cabs to the strip or where ever you wish. The rooms are "ok" in terms of cleanliness and are... More
