About Ellis Island Casino & Hotel

Ellis Island Casino & Hotel offers surprisingly nice rooms for a discount hotel, featuring comfortable mattresses but lumpy pillows. The smoke-free hotel environment is a plus, though guests must walk to the casino, which is not smoke-free. The hotel is conveniently located about an 8-minute walk from the strip, and public transport is also nearby. While the staff may lack training and consistency, the hotel is highly recommended for its affordability and good drinks, making it a great choice for visitors wanting to explore the surrounding area.

The casino has lower table limits, with a $5 craps table available in the mornings, and is all in one spot, making it very convenient. The restaurant is just a 9-second walk from the casino, so guests won't have to search for a place to eat. The restaurant received praise for its prime rib special, and the food was said to be really good. The staff were friendly, and the slots were fun. Visitors have noted that bigger isn't always better, and Ellis Island is considered a hidden gem in Vegas. Although the check-in process can be slow due to limited staff, there are always people at the desk. The casino is small but has all the games needed, and the atmosphere offers the feeling of being at a budget-friendly spot near the strip.
