ABOUT GOLDEN GATE HOTEL & CASINO
Opening in 1906, Golden Gate Hotel & Casino’s legacy spans the birth of Las Vegas, the Roaring 20s, the Rat Pack era and now the 21st century. Located at One Fremont Street on the world-famous Fremont Street Experience, Golden Gate claimed Las Vegas’ first official address and became a landmark as the city’s most historic hotel and casino. Golden Gate has continued its vintage Vegas character by preserving ten of the rooms that opened with the property. The “Original 10” rooms welcomed ranchers, railroad men, singers, mobsters, vacationers and more and the rooms have become a part of Golden Gate’s deep roots. Fast forward to the present, Golden Gate now houses two luxurious penthouses, an expanded 14-suite tower, two bars and an expansive gaming floor.
