Downtown Starts Here.

El Cortez Hotel and Casino is the longest continuously-running casino in Las Vegas. Located off the strip in the historic Downtown area, El Cortez is the authentic Vegas experience that you have been craving.

El Cortez first opened its doors downtown in 1941, and was so successful that it attracted the attention of Bugsy Siegel and Meyer Lansky, who bought the property. In 1963 it went from one ‘family’ to another, when Vegas icon Jackie Gaughan bought El Cortez.

There are two ways to experience Vegas. The classic Vegas of the Rat Pack and Fremont Street, and there’s the new Vegas of the Strip. When you stay at El Cortez, you get the best of both worlds. The amenities and first-class treatment of the Vegas from the brochures, but you also get the authenticity of a true Downtown experience.

Downtown Las Vegas is the Vegas experience you’ve been waiting for. In the 2014 Best of Las Vegas, El Cortez was voted Best Locals Hotel. And who would know better than the locals? Excitement, adventure, and entertainment all come together at El Cortez Hotel & Casino. We offer an array of suites and rooms that fit your style… and ours.

As the year is coming to an end I went through some more images taken over the last year. These are some images that I captured on our trip to Las Vegas this year. This is one of our favorite casinos to visit while in Vegas. The fun El Cortez Hotel & Casino - Las Vegas
It was so nice to see so many of our friends and neighbors last night at our winter mixer! The setting could not have been more perfect – we enjoyed great conversation, spectacular views and wonderful hospitality in the Jackie Gaughan Suite at the El Cortez Hotel & Casino - Las Vegas. Thank you to our gracious hosts and to all who joined us! ✨
Check out our new photography exhibit in the El Cortez Hotel & Casino - Las Vegas, titled “From Gambling Town to Resort Destination: The Epic Rise of Las Vegas.” The photo exhibit depicts imagery of historic hotel properties, iconic Downtown Las Vegas locations and legendary figures such as the Rat Pack, Elvis and the El Cortez’s previous owner, mobster Bugsy Siegel and his associates. The free exhibit, located in the north-south hallway inside the El Cortez, is now open to adults 21 years and older.

Happy birthday to a legend from The !

Worst hotel i have ever stayed, the music from the club next door shaked the walls in the room and is ongoing at 3 am in the morning.
I would not recommend any to stay here. This should have been posted in the advertisements for the rooms. Staff knows of this and not sure how anyone could sleep or function with the noise.
