Golden Nugget Casino

I frequent the Golden Nugget in Lake Charles, and so we booked in Biloxi thinking we would get the same result. The rooms are great. There isn’t much to knock them on their rooms. The staff, however, in comparison is very behind the times. They aren’t organized or pleasant and that was a definite turnoff. I’ve been in numerous casinos in the gulf coast as well as Vegas, and this seemed to be one of the smokier environments. They had a non smoking areas, but half of the people were firing up, so that was a turnoff. I’d probably stay here again because I like their rooms, but service no where near compares to Lake Charles.

Stayed here several times and loved it. Had a great room with a view. The pool and pool bar are awesome. Had fun playing slots and dancing to some live music.

Beautiful place! Nice people. Fantastic rooms! Just my first day but impressed. Shops and restaurants galore Mortons Steakhouse! Bun a Gumps with outside seating. Highly recommend!!!

It’s ok, seems a little upscale but the drink service seemed lacking. Definitely not loose slots either… well, they never seem to be for me! Didn’t stay in rooms so can’t speak to that.

It’s big, fairly new and fairly clean. Spent my usual $ 5 on the quarter slot machines and got some pity points, but in the end I lost it all. The machines may have potential, but it wasn’t to be for me.

Impressive hotel rooms. Everything is new and absolutely amazing. Modern, sleek, styles in the rooms. Everything you need to have a great time. Ordered room service and it was quick and food was good. No complaints. Definitely going back to the golden nugget. Sophisticated and exceptional! Excited to go back! Pool is amazing, with a swim up bar, canopies, daybed, and plenty of lounge chairs. There are also playing tables outside so if you get the urge to gamble while tanning, you can. Stage for concerts located outside and also if you’re hungry, don’t worry there’s a place to eat outside also. Ready to go back!

Great place to play, never stayed the night but won 300! The all you can eat crab legs is worth the $$. Clean casino and clean restaurants! Will be back when i return to biloxi. =)
Parking was also fine
A++++++

The rooms at the Nugget are nice, beds very comfy but bathroom layout isn’t convenient sink has virtually no countertop, shower door makes it hard to turn on shower, not cleaned well, something nasty on the bathroom floor this visit, Staff is not friendly, not dealers, not waitresses not front desk — been here several times. Pool is wonderful though !

The casino is nice and has a nice selection of games and slots but the reward credits you earn can’t be used at any other casino. I was told they don’t share data bases. Better off staying at a Total Rewards or Mlife property where the reward credits can be used anywhere.

Only stay here if you don’t have specific plans. This place says they do not take reservations. Their reservations are «request» according to the ladies at the front desk. I booked a room from Friday to Monday 2 months prior to my stay and went to check in and was told they ran out of room. Then why was I able to book a room for the days I wanted. They did not bother to comp any meal or any part of my stay even though I was inconvenienced. Only come here to use the pool. That is it.

Had a great time. The hotel was CLEAN and spacious enough for our family. The kids enjoyed the h2o pool area. We received a complimentary buffet for signing up and playing the casino games. I hate gambling because it gives me anxiety but at least the machine doesn’t suck up your money in seconds — maybe it was just luck but I broke even and still had a good time.

My biggest suggestion for enjoying casinos: join the player’s club. My parents got a super reasonable price for the room we were in, which had a jacuzzi and a view of the water. (And, if you’re not convinced that you should join the player’s club, then you might want to know that my mom was upset that 1. the room wasn’t a suite, like she’d booked the last time and 2. the room actually cost her money, which it didn’t the last time. Also, they’re not huge gamblers, they both play the penny slots for hours, usually on the same $ 20 bill they put in at the beginning of the day.)
I might be a little enamored because the last time I saw this place, it had an island theme, and now it’s beautifully designed, and I’m a big fan of design. It was a lot of fun seeking out the cool little touches. The bed was super comfortable. The couch we had in our room was really nice, and I didn’t have any problems with the TV or amenities.
The machines in the non-​smoking section were a bit cramped and old, but one of them paid out for me, so I won’t complain too much. There was a good selection of machines and games throughout the space. The pool was beautiful, and there was a good selection of restaurants/​snacks/​gift shops/​candy stores/​a Starbucks. The biggest drawback is that it can be a bit of a hike to get around, especially if you need to walk from your room to your car (and yeah, I know it’s that way on purpose).

It would have probably been a WAY better experience if the workers there weren’t so bitter. As soon as I walked through the doors, I was greeted with a horrible attitude till the time I walked out. How the casino is set up is an inconvenience and is just too small. The best part of my experience was having my friends there to share some fun and chill at the pool, which was expected to be WAY bigger. All I could think is, «you have all these cabanas, but no pool…» kiddies all ages splashing around next to the bar area.
Thank goodness it was a comped room/​stay. Anyways, NOT RECOMMENDED AT ALL.

I really like the atmosphere here. Resort feel. The pool is not as big as I would think for such a large place but it is nice and they do have free umbrellas! The drinks are pricey…12.00 for. 16oz fruity drink and 6.00 a beer. The food at the pool not impressive but you can get food from one of the restaurants and bring it in. The resort has lots of nice restaurants and machines everywhere. King crab at the buffet tonight. The rooms are very nice and new. I will come back.

We arrived Saturday eventing around 4:30 check in was for 4:00. My wife went down to the spa and really enjoyed her experience there. (That is he only reason I’m giving 2 stars and not 1.) Our problems started Sunday evening. We sat down to eat a bubba gumps and waited 15 min before anyone acknowledged us. Food was decent at best and kinda pricey. We then headed down to the h2o bar to get some drinks. The bar had 3 bartenders working. Average wait time on a drink at a pretty empty bar was around 10 min. The real problems occurred when we got back to our room that night. We notice a random 136.00 charge to the credit card we had on file. We called the front desk and they had no answers for us, being that we were checking out the following morning we figured we would just handle it then. We then ordered some room service. It was pretty quick to get to the room, my wife got the chicken Alfredo pasta I had a hamburger. Her food had hairs (which appeared to be pubic hair) in it. I will post pictures. After we gave the food back about 10 min later we notice ANOTHER 79.00 random charge from the hotel on our card. And to top it all off I tried to make coffee this morning and the room only has one working outlet.

Nice hotel rooms with a very modern feel. Did find the top of a bottle of water in our Sherpa and a left over open bag of skittles in the room. Tells us something about housekeeping. The room was free so I won’t escalate it.
Rooms are much nicer than Harrahs down the street which I frequent.
The pool is nice but the water is warm and service terrible. See my review on H2O bar for that.
I think this hotel/​casino needs more visits by critical customers and it could be the spot to go to on the coast.
1) need a night club.
2) better service at pool

Good food!!! Everything I had was great even the desert. Everyone in the casino was friendly. Parking was easy. I would definitely go back.

The hotel was very clean and the rooms were nicely decorated. The only complaint I have is that the tv in the room is a nice flat screen but the picture is not HD. Also I was there during march madness and again the tv in the room didn’t get all of the channels the basketball was on. I know this may not matter because for the most part you are out enjoying the casino and surrounding area but when you want to relax in the room it would have been nice to have a nice clear picture and the channels you would expect a place of that size to have.
The casino had many options for table games and plenty of slots. It would have been nice to have a couple of lower minimum black jack tables, $ 15 was the lowest there was while I was there.

I recently stayed at the Golden Nugget and was pleasantly surprised. Its a great value for the price. The rooms were modern looking and larger than the rooms at Beau Rivage. I liked that the rooms had a seating area. It was nice having the extra room to spread out. The rest of the Golden Nugget is a little smaller than other hotels on the strip though. The pool area looked amazing, but I stayed while it was cold so didn’t get to experience it but, I liked how the pool overlooked the water (mental note for next time). They also have free valet so thumbs up for that. Based on this experience I would stay here again.

This is 3.5 at best. I’m a traveler for business. This was a business and leisure trip combined. Stayed here for two nights. Being my first time ever in Biloxi I read reviews before deciding to stay, as a non-​smoker it was important my room was truly non-​smoking. It was! However you can’t escape the smoke anywhere else…
RESTAURANTS: The open air restaurants… smell like smoke. The restaurant choices were fair… Not Vegas style, so for Biloxi I was impressed. Bubba Gump is your typical overpriced gimmicky restaurant. Morton’s for special occasions and tucked away from smoke, a sports bar with bar food was good and inexpensive, an Asian spot we dare not eat at because the smell of smoke lingered here, and I don’t like tobacco flavored sushi…
THE ROOM: The room was great. Spacious and modern and great bathroom! The flaws came with my cleaning inspection. Found hairs and unknown objects in bathroom. Found greasy leftovers on headboard. Found «white» dried up substance on sofa… if I find one of these I’m pretty grossed out, but to find 3 – 4 instances of housekeeping pitfalls was unexpected… YUK!
The walls are soooooo thin, unfortunately our neighbors were belligerent all night, didn’t get to sleep bc the couple next door wanted to bicker all night. Security stepped in at 6am bc they passed out enough to sleep through the wake-​up alarm for hours…
The view won me over… the gulf is gorgeous.
ROOM SERVICE: FAIL. Husband bit into moldy toast… Need I say more. They comped the meal.
PARKING: Freeeee, wow. What a treat. The garages are free. Valet is not.
CASINO: smokers haven… But great selection of slots and tables. Didn’t lose/didn’t win… Broke even but played long.
All in all, I’d probably won’t return unless it was free. Can’t risk the unkempt rooms, the thin walls, and the risk of eating moldy anything. But it was a nice stay.
I hear the casino across the street is smoke free…
