Buffalo Bill's is a casino situated mere feet over the California / Nevada state line; we stopped here for a final break on our drive to Vegas to stretch out our legs and more importantly ride the Desperado rollercoaster, which used to be the world's tallest and steepest. In 1996. Somewhat appropriately Buffalo Bill's is like stepping back in time; this is a far cry from the glitzy ultralounges and top-tier steakhouses of the Vegas strip - this is all filthy carpets, smoke-filled air, and fine dining options like Denny's.The rollercoaster itself was expensive at $10 each but well worth going on once; it's a long ride which goes all around and inside the casino, the initial drop is amazing, and the whole ride is surprisingly intense - probably aided by the now-rickety coaster's age; it feels like it's about to fall off the track on every corner.The final stretch of the drive from LA to Vegas can be boring, but if you've got at least 30 minutes to spare and you like rollercoasters I'd strongly recommend a quick stop here.
My stay was great I even won $625.00 during my two night stay. For a casino hotel it was very quiet during the nightime hours.
We stopped here on our way home to Utah. It was late at night and we were very tired and had a small child with us who was more than ready to get out of the car...We had to stand in line for about 10 minutes to get someone to wait on us to check us in. Although once a nice Western themed place, this hotel really is in need of some renovation-new paint, new carpet and fixing up of the log ride that once existed inside the main casino. Everything looked tired and dusty, but the bed was awfully comfy and we were glad to stop for the night.
We arrived early and they let us check in to our room. This was a Thursday so don't go during the week. Everything is closed including the rides, monorail and restaurants. My husband is disabled and we were hoping the monorail was in service but NO it wasn't. Had to leave our parking place and drive everywhere. We ate at Denny's and it was horrible. Service was fair but mashed potatoes were instant and tasted as such. Never asked us for a refill on our drinks. It took 30 min just to check out at the register and we were the only ones in line. She had no ideas how to run our credit card or some other issue. The pool is also closed at dusk so if you have children they are stuck in the room with nothing to do. The room is fair for the money but TV is awful and hardly any channels. It is next door to the Primm Hotel so you have access to the shopping outlets. Parking is free!!!
I love this place, Buffalo Bills is a great Vegas warm up driving in and a great Vegas cool down coming out. Buffalo Bills is a amazing place they offer affordable casino games (i.e., slots, black jack, poker, etc), live entertainment, a movie theatre, restaurants, thrill rides, arcade for the kids, etc. My only dislike for the place is that its a bit dated needs TLC.
We like the fact that everything is under one roof. If you want to play games,eat or go to the shops its very convenient. The rooms are clean but you can already see the wear and tear. the beds are comfortable.
When you walk in all the lights and the atmosphere getyou excited!!! They had newer games....bells ringing....and seemed like a cool spot to lounge and hang a bit....
Stateline is dying. Not much else to say. But it is fun to wander around and look at things. I played a few slots, they were really tight that day (normal). We have never stayed at Buffalo Bills, but we do walk around it.
We had a great time at Buffalo Bill's Hotel and Casino. Great food choices and love the slots. Games and rides for the kids if you take yours.
We do like Buffalo Bill's. it is a great stop after a long road trip. Get a little bit of gambling before you get to Las Vegas. it is a great start back home and try to avoid a bit of traffic home
