A Vegas original, the Sahara Hotel and Casino hails from the days of the Rat Pack of Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr. Dating back to 1952, this venerable, modestly priced institution on the Strip still exudes old school elegance and a little slower pace. The vintage Moroccan theme and architectural touches are still charming, and so is the roller coaster: Speed shoots guests right along the Sahara's marquee at more than 70 miles an hour. The 80,000-square-feet casino offers table games, slots, poker, keno, race and sports book, and low-minimum blackjack. The Sahara also sits close to the Fremont Street Experience, an explosion of more than 2 million lights and a 54,000- watt sound system that provides a pulsating light-and- music show created to dazzle. At the Sahara, guests also can drive simulated race cars at the Cyber Speedway and catch the legendary 1950s groups, the Platters, Drifters and Coaters, in the Congo Room. Las Vegas' first true lounge, the Casbar, still presents nightly entertainment from smooth jazz to rock. To help guests relax, the Sahara's 5,000-square-foot swimming pool is augmented by a gazebo-covered whirlpool, poolside bar, cabana and a 15-person spa beneath a filigreed wrought-iron dome, perfect for social soaking. Guestrooms come equipped with basic amenities and festooned with jewel-colored fabrics. Hungry guests can chose from five restaurants, including the House of Lords, the legendary eatery featuring steak and seafood in a posh ambience of draped fabric, plush booths and jeweled lighting. The NASCAR Café includes ribs, chicken, steaks, pasta and burgers, along with race cars hanging from the ceiling. Compact for easy access to all facilities and attractions, the Sahara appeals to guests seeking moderate prices, less noise and slower pace of a different era. The Sahara Hotel & Casino is proud to announce our newest show additions! Internationally-known comic magician Amazing Johnathan."THE PLATTERS, Cornell Gunter's COASTERS and Beary Hobb's DRIFTERS" return to the stage in the legendary Congo Room with some of the top 20 hits from the ?50s and ?60s.***All rooms must have at least one adult, 21 years of age or older, in order to check in.*****There is a Maximum 7 night stay year round and a Minimum 2 night stay.

The Sahara Hotel is not what it once was.
The general facility is run down and dirty.
Our first room assignment did not work out; the room had never been cleaned and not ready for occupation. The second room (for which we paid for an upgrade) was nicer but had standing water on the floor. Housekeeping responded to this problem by taking the towels in the room and throwing them on the floor (leaving the room with no towels) and leaving them there. Once again I had to call and deal with the front desk and they did eventually send a Plummer who fixed the leak. Overall the Sahara is well worn, has poor accommodations, an apathetic/incompetent staff, and generally not worth the visit. There are nicer places to stay in Vegas for the same money.
Its a amazing and cheapest hotels forever, if you see its feature and rates then you deffinetly appreciates with my word,.its near at fremont street. shape of hotels make attraction to all. Las Vegas hotels in Nevada state always expensive, due to m

This was my second time at Sahara. Last time was about 10 years ago. Nothing has changed, nothing has been updated. It looks like it hasn't been cleaned in decades. Room was dirty, carpet stained, shower rusty. Breakfast at the cafe took almost...
