Great Stay

First time at the El Cortez after many many years at another downtown Hotel.. Although the other hotel was fancier, I liked the El Cortez better. Bigger rooms, wonderfully friendly staff, good restaurants, and cheap gambling!!! Would definitely stay in the Tower rooms again.

from Hawaii/ was a Great stay & fun!

i was excited to go to this hotel since the reviews were so mixed. I wanted to be in the 'downtown' area so i could do some shopping at the Outlet stores in downtown. I've stayed at some of the other downtown Fremont area hotels before & the $$ paid here was definitely worth it! The room was as pictured (had a Tower room) if not better! The beds were comfortable & service wonderful! Onr of the Pit Bosses & his crew spent time teaching me the game of craps! It was great & i had lots of fun! The hotel is 1 short block to Fremont St. & the hotel had security on the corner which made feel safe (i traveled alone this time). Everyone was curteous, friendly & i would definitely go there again!

Great Hotel

This was our second stay at the El Cortez. As I said last year, if you want luxury, go to the strip and pay 3 or 4 times more for a room. If you like to gamble and see shows and just need a clean comfortable and convenient downtown hotel, this is for you. My wife & I always rent a car and go to the strip when we want, but the El Cortez is our place to stay. Odds at the crap table are 10 to 1, so you can make a $3 passline or come bet, then back them up with $30 odds. It's a great combo if someone is rolling numbers. Much better than the $10 min with 2 times odds on the strip.

Rooms over the parking garage.

The 1st time I stayed at the El cortez they put me in the tower, and it was very nice for the money. This time, I was given a room in the section of the hotel located on top of the parking garage. The room was much smaller. The water temperature in the shower constantly fluctuated making a shower quite unconfortable.

Hospitality

The hospitality staff failed to clean my room during the 3 nights I was there. I had to call for fresh towels.

Great Room for the money.

Friendly staff. Great food.

Worth it.

Good deal for the price. Very nice staff. Very Comfortable room.

Great room

The hotel stay was great and so were the staff! Room was very large and comfortable. The view from the tower room was awesome. I live in Las Vegas but had to fly in/out from a Chicago stay. So i was so impressed with the furnishings at the El Cortez. The only problems we had with the stay were the key cards which were replaced immediately. The cleanliness was great but the remainings of prior customers under the couch should have been vaccumed and the ceiling of the bathroom needed wiped down.But overall, the whole place was very clean and well maintained. Hats off to the El Cortez!

Pleasantly surprised

Although it wasn't the lap of luxury, it was exactly what I wanted. It was great considering the low price. Easy to stay there. I WOULD gladly do it again...as long as the price stayed the same!
