Hotel Description
Offering Caribbean flair on the coveted “Four Corners” section of the famed Las Vegas Strip, the Flamingo Las Vegas boasts Las Vegas flair and classic resort accommodations with marvels such as a wildlife habitat and a tropical water playground. Hotel Features
Originated as the desert dream of a famed U.S. gangster in 1946, the Flamingo Las Vegas lays stake as the first Las Vegas Strip hotel and casino. The original hotel has made way for a newer, updated version, but the Flamingo still maintains its characteristic appeal to families and nonstop partiers alike. Slots and table games light up the Flamingo’s 77,000-square-foot casino, which provides a vibrant, Caribbean style atmosphere with updated games, classic favorites, and a Race & Sports Book. This hotel boasts its own wildlife habitat with a flock of Chilean flamingos, swans, ducks, and koi fish, who flit amongst lush foliage, tiny islands, and rushing waterfalls. A neighboring tropical playground, resplendent with cheery tropical flowers and shady palm trees, contains a traditional oval-shaped pool, extensive lagoon with grottos, two hot tubs, and a casino/pool combination. Cocktail service and a poolside restaurant are available seasonally. The Flamingo Las Vegas hosts legendary performers from its inception, including Toni Braxton, George Wallace, and the Society of Seven. Guests can expect the hotel’s venues to host a fine array of stars whenever they stay, including comedians and singers. Dining options within the walls of the Flamingo Las Vegas include casual bar and grills, budget buffets, and eclectic cafes. Authentic Japanese cuisine and a fresh sushi bar are featured at Hamada of Japan, and Voga, which is mixed with city chic and Neapolitan style.

Guests can maintain their workouts at the Flamingo’s workout room, which offers machines and free weights.

Hotelbook TipThe Flamingo Las Vegas was built as an “oasis in the desert” by New York gangster Bugsy Siegel. Originally budgeted for $1.5 million, the cost eventually exceeded $6 million, which angered Siegel’s mafia bosses and led to his eventual murder. The name “Flamingo” is said to derive from Siegel’s long-legged, red-haired girlfriend, who had “Flamingo” as her nickname
