The Laughlin river lodge was a great experience for me and my family, we stayed in a deluxe room with the river view. The staff were very accommodating for all of our needs and made our stay. The bowling alley was super fun and the milk shakes are amazing, a great place to take the kids when it's down time. They also have pool tables. 8/10 The general store has everything you need from liquor to soap and a great selection of souvenirs. They also have amazing coffee and good food 9.5/10 The big bull restaurant was amazing the food is great and very well priced this was the highlight of the hotel I want to shout out Patricia and calen I hope I spelled them right, they were some of the best people I've ever met while on vacation and I want to say thank you for the service you provided me and my family. 10/10 We will definitely stay here again and again. read more

Management for Fourth of July was lack luster. The pool was empty for a busy holiday weekend and no intention of repair. Both restaurants were permanently closed and had to leave to go eat dinner or breakfast. Customers don't want to eat takeout all the time from the General Store or the other quick service counters. Rooms looked like they were stuck in the 80s and needed renovations badly. Some rooms smelled of smoke, disgusting. Would not recommend LRL needs to get their act together. read more

The best part of the hotel is the 2nd floor bowling and small children area. The website gives false impression of "game room" because teens/kids are not allowed to play ping pong since table is in room with casino games and alcohol. Same goes for some of the ski-ball and other games at the 3rd level. The "pc gamers room" hasn't been open for some time so that knocks the rating down even more since website advertises it. The arcade consists of a few gaming units and that's it. Definitely disappointed because there is plenty of false information and photos of the room are as well. Our room is super outdated and reeks of dust. My son tipped the light shade and large amount of dust came down in a cloud. My son has asthma and allergies and can't imagine having him in the room for more than a night. read more

Horrible! Absolutely horrible. Old. Outdated. Their website says that they have restaurants that are no longer open. The room we stayed in was in fact, clean, which was a plus but very outdated. Plasma TV. No coffee pot. No refrigerator. No USB outlets for charging cellular devices. No working ice machines. You have to go to the front desk and ask for ice, and then they give you this little bag with about 1/4 lb of ice. Employee in the general store was either having an off day or is just flat rude. I know it's a casino, but the cigarette smoke is horrible. Very overwhelming. You can taste the cigarette smoke even in your room. Went to several other casinos and none of them were even half as bad. The Pioneer would have been better than this hole! read more

Laughlin River Lodge - Resorts Near Me - Laughlin, Nevada

This hotel is trash in every sense of the word. The rooms don't cool down; there's no ice machines however they will give you the equivalent of a ziplock bag of ice but ONLY one per room per day; no blow dryers because apparently (per the front desk staff) they were causing electrical issues so removing them all was the solution; the pool that they advertise as an amenity has been closed down for months; the bar food is barely a step-above microwaved leftovers and more importantly (some of the) bar staff feels it's more important to throw patrons stuff away than to bother to provide any level of customer service at all...I wouldn't recommend this establishment to anyone. Take your money somewhere worth spending it. read more

I give this place 4 stars. It's clean & chill. They have a huge store for everything you need. The river view is beautiful so that's a plus. The staff is friendly and the customer service is on point. Tv = amazing. Shower = amazing. Bed = amazing. View = amazing. Clientele= semi sketch vibes/ nice older crowd I think every room should have a mini fridge and microwave so I was happy to see that when I walked in. They have plenty of games for casino play if that's what you like to do. They have a 24/7 restaurant. The Golden Nugget is right across the street and the water taxi dock is a walk away to sight see other hotels. *they don't have a safe in the room *the ice machine was down on every floor and you had to get ice from either the store or they provided tiny bags. read more

The casino is fine. The restaurants are very good, but the hotel is almost indescribable bad. It was so bad, we checked out immediately after seeing our room, forfeited our room fees, and booked another hotel in the area. Dated, and I mean dated furniture. Old 1980 cathode ray television, no coffee maker, no refrigerator, no ice bucket because there are no ice makers on the premises. No glasses, no cups, no anything! Why anyone would stay here in the 1990's is beyond me. In 2023 it's unfathomable! read more

Ok. First the positive. The hotel is old, but clean. The mattress was comfortable. Ok. Now the reason I'm here. The pillows were like laying your head on a boulder. There were three pillows, and all the same. Recommend you take your own. The shower, in the evening took some time to warm up, as did the old school TV. But on the plus side, I think we had four or five channels. Bring a tablet you can stream with. The internet was only slightly jerkey. Did I mention you should bring your own pillows? read more

I'm a fan of the Laughlin River Lodge and I'll definitely stay here again. I think it's one of the better more "low key" hotels on the river & also the renovations I'm sure have helped as it was clean & showed new casino areas that weren't previously being noted. The pros: 1. Cheap (as is most of the River) but around $50 a night I'd say a steel. Please note that they do take out a deposit for each night so be prepared for that. The money went back in my account quick but still I could see that upsetting people who came without much cash. 2. Clean! Our rooms are cleaner then other hotels based off of pictures and reviews I read. The casino areas were also up-kept and nice. 3. Restaurants and shops were A+. A lot of variety & we were pleasantly surprised at how good their food was at different spots here. 4. We liked the "themed casinos" throughout. Mardi gras, arcade, bowling alley, and Asian downstairs casino we were impressed by the way they change it up and again, have a little something for everyone. The negatives: 1. I agree check in can be a nightmare especially during busy months. Their set up is so strange & they hardly have anyone behind the counters working. There was only 3-4 parties ahead of me for check in yet it took FOREVER. Seeing others post about likes 15 people deep looks terrifying. 2. You are at the beginning (or end of the River) depending which way you look at it. While this allowed for more privacy and less foot traffic you have to remember it takes longer then to get to other hotels further down etc. We found that more people in our party stayed in the big hotels near the middle so our travel times def took longer. I also noticed less cabs/Uber's coming to ours/waiting. Overall I would definitely stay here again as it's a bump above the rest given visiting others hotels and rooms. read more

Rude bartenders. Rude servers. The only people that were actually friendly were the cleaning crew. Explains why I don't come here anymore.

Came home with about 20 bed bug bites... No ice machines for 2 yrs now. 2 out of 6 elevators worked. They took out all the fun games and left just slots...lousy ones. Not going back. read more

On April 28th 2023 the fire alarm went off in our room,with the loud buzzer not the smoke alarm. All I could think of was getting out! Now we're on the 20th floor, we can't take the elevator. So down the the 20 flights stairs we go, five of us, all senior citizens. No one else around. Finally we get to the front desk and no one knew a thing! Our hearts were racing our legs were sore! The manager Gail McCarthy was not very helpful either, didnt know a thing! You would think she would compensate us at least one night for our horrible experience! The lighting in our room sucks,furniture is falling apart, ice machines don't work! read more

Laughlin river lodge quadruple their prices during the infamous Laughlin river run motorcycle event. But... rooms and service is still the same: - old, used, smashes mattresses, like if they had been in use for 20 years carrying a 400 lbs person... - cheap plastic bathroom - old fixtures - no fridge - some elevators not working (up to 15 mins wait to reach the 24th floor)... etc... Unacceptable for over $175 a night on average! They advertise no resort fees but I was charged $152 for taxes and resort fees as the employee mentioned. I couldn't get a receipt either. They also claim to have a beach, which indeed is there but.. closed/inaccessible during the motorcycle rally! Crooks! Bar staff is SUPER FRIENDLY and fun. Cheap (or free) solid drinks. read more

Laughlin River Lodge - Room view - Resorts Near Me - Laughlin, Nevada

Rough looking property, and although I didn't stay in a room here, I did enjoy walking over from Golden Nugget and shopping at their General Store, which had plenty of snacks, old timey candies, and souvenirs. Their casino is interesting as it appeared like they have multiple little casinos such as Dottys, Bourbon Street, etc inside one building. read more

Laughlin River Lodge used to be "The" place to go but NOT anymore!!! No more cocktail waitresses, now you have to go to the bartender to get your own drink-even water. No more ticket cash out machine, you also have to go to the bartender for that, and there's only one bartender. Definitely not the place to be! Cheapskates is all I can say now! All the other casinos make enough money to have cocktail waitresses, what's wrong with you people???? read more

The good: Size of room AC 10 lane bowling alley Water pressure of shower The bad: Outdated casino Outdated room, broken furniture, floor was dirty, dusty even the tv control was dusty Furniture in room is old and gross. We had a chair that was just really gross and stained. Old box tv in standard room, only 11 channels available. No working ice machines Arcade closed Gaming room closed Limited menu at big bear cafe Staff is cold/ rude: the checkin staff explained nothing, simply gave me my key and nodded. When i asked about the deposit, she said yeah so? The general store is over priced (get water bottles and Gatorade at the bowling alley, much cheaper). Rooms smell like smoke Old carpets Found old used popsicle stick on floor of room We won't stay here in the future. read more

They do not have enough employees to handle the size of the casino. Most of the employees are very nice but there are a few bad apples. Overall the casino is a lot of fun but most of the time, it is difficult to get service. read more

I've been coming to Laughlin for years and never stopped here I thought it was a little casino/bar I'm in shock the place is huge and the most interesting casino I've ever been too.

Best food prices in town plus a 50s bowling alley and soda jerk read more

Booked one night here! Broke my ankle and tried to reschedule my night And when trying to speak to the manager they denied it! Front desk gave me the run around but no refunds. Didn't want one. We just wanted to come stay when my ankle was not broken and i can enjoy the river. We even offered to send over medical paperwork for verification. It is Saturday 2:17pm and front desk girls were laughing over the phone and calling me hun. Then said our manager is leaving now and she cant speak to you its a well deserved clock out time, then told me they cant give her managers name or their names to me. And no corporate number??? THIS HOTEL SHOULD HAVE STAYED CLOSED read more

No real restaurants...you order from a limited menu and sit inside a store or inside areas where people are playing on slot machines around you...weird. The website has Bingo but was told they do not have Bingo....at the general store there was rude people working. Sat at a machine For an hour and never had anyone come around asking anyone for a drink. They probably don't offer free drinks either, the room is decent except the TV is probably a 25"....really small....First and last time I stay here. read more

Restaurant was fantastic, no price gouging here... we have a vacation home just across the river... and there was a power outage due to a vehicle accident... the Lodge saved the day .... We were just looking for decent accommodations for the evening... good food, ok rooms ... they gave us a bag of ice to cool my beers. read more

Worst Customer service I've dealt with in a while, first went to dottys and spent $300 and couldn't get a drink, but went to burbon Street and the bartender was awesome and fast thats why i put 3 stars. But then went to the floor and was very rudely kicked off a machine so they could change the box. Never asked or said please literally kicked off. We will never be back that was insanely bad. read more

From Harrah's to the Riverside, we have stayed at practically all of the Casino Hotels along the river. We've been coming to Laughlin since the late 80's and have seen the growth of this tiny town. The newly renovated LRL has now become a favorite for a Laughlin vacation. The rooms were excellently renovated making them fresh and brand new. The rooms that we stayed in, in the North tower were roomy, clean and good smelling rooms. They did not have an old, worn down feeling to them at all. They offer so much variety for a nice family trip. Because of yelpers, we were prepared for the bowling alley and came with our gear. We experienced the late night steak and eggs special for $3.99 and also enjoyed the breakfast buffet with prime rib and omelette station. All the prices from alcohol to food were very reasonable. We have found a new go to casino here in Laughlin and hope to explore even more of what the Laughlin River Lodge has to offer. read more

When I read that the staff here are friendly I was locked in staying here. It was true! Their staff was really friendly especially Michael from the rewards center. He was not only friendly but also very helpful and welcoming. This hotel has so much to offer; slot machines, restaurants, arcade games, pachinkos, pool tables, ping pong tables and outstanding service. Their rooms were decent and clean. I don't really care for outdated as long as it's clean. The riverwalk was very nice plus too. We were able to walk around and check out the other hotels. read more

This casino is easily the most boring and unprofessional hotel I have ever stayed at. First off, the rooms were disgusting and the tvs are 20 years old. The bathroom had hit on the floor and the air conditioning sucked. I checked out early and was supposed to get my money back but in stead woke up with an extra 582 out of my account because of poor quality workers who put in wrong numbers now having to wait 5 business days for it to be released. Do not stay at this hotel. You're better off at Aquarius or Golden Nugget. read more

They were smart enough to install a full bank of Tesla superchargers. But stupid enough to allow them to be filled with prick pickup trucks.

And Laughlin River Lodge is letting them get away with it. SMH read more

Laughlin River Lodge is on a slow slide down the casino hill. Everything is OK - most things work OK - cleanliness is OK- service is OK. What's not OK are elevators repeatedly breaking down or stopping while you are in them.... and being told we had too many people in the thing. We were there 3 days and got stuck 3 times ... once for 15 minute. Pickup your game LRL !!!! read more

If I could give this place no stars I would. The price is ridiculous for what you get. I thought after we paid for an upgrade our room would be better what a joke. Just because I see the River doesn't cost $135 for an upgrade. We get to our room on the 11th floor and loan behold our keys don't work. We had to have security come and try with new keys which was an ultimate fail. Mind you we have melting ice that we had to get at the store. They don't have working ice machines. You have to go down to check in and get a small bag of ice. They don't provide coffee in the rooms, no blow dryers in room, old rooms with disgusting carpets, I mean the rooms are so out of date. No close handicap parking. The staff is the only good thing about this hotel. Thank you Larry for being the only valet person working and the guy that brought up our small bag of ice. Unfortunately we booked for 4 nights and with the holiday we are stuck here read more

There is no way this is the #1 rated place in Laughlin. Yelp has been very helpful in finding good places and things over the years but I'm extremely disappointed with the rating for this place. It's simply a run down dump. There is ALWAYS a line and long wait for hotel check-in. When I was waiting in line one of the three ladies checking people in just walked away after checking some people in. I guess she didn't want to be bothered with it anymore. As you can see from my pictures, the place is way outdated and poorly maintained. The plastic shower enclosure might be fine if you are height challenged. Good luck finding anything to eat. Long wait at the one, half full restaurant and all two of the other eating places are really just slot machine rooms with 2 -3 tables that seat two where I think it's possible to somehow order food. Bottom line, I think their motto here is 'we know we're a shit hole and you'll never be back so we have just one chance to take your money so, don't spend any time eating - gamble, gamble, gamble!' We checked out 4 of the other large places to stay and this was, by far, the worse. Not only will we never stay here again, we will never step foot in it. read more

Not so grand anymore. We have stayed at the river lodge many times when we have gone to Laughlin. This last trip, needless to say it kind of was not up to par. We had to change rooms three times after sitting in 12 hour traffic on the 40 because of an overturned big rig on the 15 that was carrying lithium batteries. Anyway, that's a mother story. We got to the hotel and yes they were very accommodating. I'm giving them an extra star just because Tiger Lily there at the front desk was literally the most helpful, sweetest person we encountered. She accommodated us when our first room was still dirty and the tub wouldn't drain. Then we got a room on the 13th floor and the AC did not work. Finally, the 12th floor. The room was clean, enough. But then, we are getting ready to get into bed for the night and notice that the comforter they put on there had dried stains on it and I had enough. We called for an extra comforter and the statement I got back from whoever was at the front desk (not Tiger Lily) tells me, I mean, we can send up a couple of extra sheets.... So I proceed to tell her, well unless you like to sleep with a comforter that has dried stains all over it, then by all means please send up sheets and I'll send this comforter to you. Her tone changed quickly and they brought up a new comforter. The electrical outlets also did not work in the bathroom and a couple of them in the room itself did not work. The windows are also only able to (supposed to be able to) open so much but the little window stopper broke off as we were opening the window which meant we could open it all the way. That doesn't really bug me, I'm just simply stating the issues in the room. Their restaurant also closed down a few months ago which sucks. I have to say, I think next time we'll be staying at The Riverside or Harrah's read more
