Palace Station Hotel

on march 30, we flew into vegas and spent the night before driving to the grand canyon the following morning. I found a station room online for $26. after reading all these reviews, i didn't know what to expect. yes, you have to walk outside to get to the older courtyard rooms, but it's not that big of a deal. this hotel is more convenient than other HUGE luxury properties. easy in and out. .... the bed was extremely comfortable and clean. the shower head was really low, and my hubby who is tall had a problem washing his hair. we didn't eat at the palace station, so i can't comment on that. we didn't play too much, just the free play they gave us on a new player's card. this place was FINE for a one night stay.

Got a good price on 2 rooms here during a busy weekend. Do not make the same mistake of booking a "courtyard" room. These rooms are in a small building behind the tower, and both of rooms had a horrible odor like something died. The rooms were comparable to the worst Motel 6 or Days Inn that you could stay at. And the window was 50 yards from I-15 with semi trucks driving past all night.

Found pit bosses to be less than generous with comps even then I played all 3 days in their casino. Also, a couple of the gals manning the reservations counter were less than friendly and helpful. The plumbing in the room was plugged even tho they sent a maintenance man to fix the problem. It still had problems. Love the location....

I stayed at Palace Station this past weekend (March 27) and had an okay time. This is definately not the place for someone who is allergic or sensitive to smoke. I came to Vegas with a head cold and was miserable in my "non-smoking room". The whole courtyard area smelled strongly of smoke..and the lighting in the bathroom was horrible. All that being said, I still enjoyed myself while at Palace Station. The FEAST breakfast buffet was really good. I had the best omellete I have had in a while and the service was great. The casino was very smokey, but the employees were very friendly. The slots were pretty tight, but they were much better than at the Rio. We paid 75 dollars for our room that night and can't really complain....If you are looking for a low cost room...this is it! I also want to mention the free shuttle service to the strip!!!

We stayed here March 18th, 2004 - March 21st, 2004. We were surprised when we arrived (9:30pm) that the casino upgraded our room to a suite (Very Nice!). We stayed in the Garden area. The casino is HUGE and has a variety of games, including 1 cent slots to dollar slots. There are several places to eat, although, the Palace Cafe seemed overwhelmed at times. Depending on the time, expect a wait of 20 mins. or so just to get your order taken. The buffet room is wonderful and if you enjoy chocolate or a choice of meats, this is the place for you! For a super fast breakfast, I recommend the inside Burger King. We did have one employee at the front desk who was rude to us on the phone, but security had that taken care of. I would recommend Palace Station to those who like a leisure vacation and don't like to walk. Everything you need to enjoy a nice Vegas vacation, including shows, is located here at this casino. The strip is too far to walk to, though they do have buses that will take you to the strip. So overall, a nice place to stay and good value for the money.

I stayed at this hotel and experienced numerous problems, including dirty rooms that smelled of cigarette smoke and very poor maid services from house keeping. When I checked out I demanded some form of compensation for the numerous problems that occured during my stay. They were very rude and offered not so much as an apology. I will never recommend a Station Casino to anyone. Lord knows we have our share of problems here in Atlantic City casinos. But when we make a mistake, we are big enough to admit it and try to make it right for the guest. I should know, I am the V.P. of Operations at a Major Casino in Atlantic City! Thanks for taking the time to read this review and more importantly, thanks for not staying at Palace Station!

We were at Palace Station in Las Vegas from Feb. 29 - Mar 4, 2004. We thought the hotel and casino was a great place and plan to return at another time. The people were great, VIP services helped us, and the food at the buffet was very good. We will be back.

This is my second visit, and my last to this hotel. The room, a non-smoking room, reeked of cigarette smoke. There was mold on the ceiling of the bathroom. Another problem was the lighting in the bathroom--very low wattage. Finally, when checking out, I was assessed a $3.50 per day energy fee--not previously disclosed. The lady checking me out was kind enough to waive the fee--however, watch out for your credit card bill--it showed up there as a separate charge. I will not return to this hotel!!

I arrived in Las Vegas the 2nd of Feb 04 upon hearing of my brother passing away. I had no reservations anywhere, and was rather lost in many ways. I saw a sign on the interstate stating room rates of $29.99 per night. I thought, ok, this I can afford. I stoped at the Hotel check in counter at about 4 P.M. and spoke with a very nice lady "Donna." I briefly told her my reason for being their and that I did not have a reservation, but needed a place to stay for approximately four days. She found a room for me in the tower at a rate even lower than advertised. From this point forward, the entire hotel staff was kind, courteous, and went out of there way to insure that my stay was uncomplicated. Your staff and management must be very proud of your employees such as Donna. My wife and I only make it to Las Vegas every couple of years, but, know this. From this day forward, my family and myself will stay nowhere else but at your facilities. We will enjoy your restuarnts, casino, room and your very friendly staff. The room was always clean and comfortable. Please extend to your staff and management my most sincere appreciation for your hospitality. Thank you again for helping me through a very trying situation. Your hotel will always be my first and only choice for our stays in Las Vegas.My Thanks Don & Nancy Larkin

The only reason I chose the palace station was because the hotels on the strip were fully committed as Super Bowl was approaching. I didn't have high expectations for this mile-off-the-strip hotel. The public areas of the hotel are nice, the casino and the lobby were well maintained and clean. The 24-hour restaurant in the casino had decent cuisine and a fairly large menu. I had some pretty decent wins on the slots but the blackjack dealers were sans perrsonality and most look like they've worked there for 50 years.. very tired and non-talkative. The ROOMS however (the primary reason you'd chose a hotel) were filthy and small. I was blessed with a "courtyard room", which was in another building from the casino (7 minute walk) and on the second floor with an amazing view of... a parking lot. Yay me. The room offered no amenities whatsoever (basics like shampoo and soap). I had to stop by the front desk to get them. Towels were old and scratchy, room needed paint and some preventative mantinence. While I was there, they were in the process of changing all of the room numbers in this 'wing' of the hotel, so finding your room was hellish. The carpeting was being replaced in some of the corridors, which was desperately needed. Being a hotel professional myself, I'd highly reccommend exhausting all other lodging options before choosing the Palace Station. However, they do offer a free shuttle to the strip, if you want to stay elsewhere and gamble your hard earned money away there. :)
