Circus Circus Hotel, Casino & Theme Park

From the classic midway and free circus acts under the pink-and-white big top to the thrilling rides in The Adventuredome, Circus Circus Hotel, Casino & Theme Park, with its inexpensive rooms, has been a family favorite since it opened in 1968. The vibe: For kids and kids at heart. Bare basics but fun -a circus with gambling. What we love: OK parents, this is the plain and simple truth: Your kids will never be bored here. With so many different forms of amusement, we guarantee the last thing you'll ever hear at Circus Circus Hotel, Casino & Theme Park is that all-too-familiar chorus of "We're bored. What can we do?" We know it looks like kookiness incarnate (as no self-respecting architect would design a giant pink glass dome with a five-acre theme park beneath it), but The Adventuredome is loads of fun and full of thrills for all ages with thrill rides out the wazoo. Insider tips: Circus Circus Hotel, Casino & Theme Park has a slew of restaurants to choose from. Circus Buffet, Pizzeria and The Steakhouse are just a few of the favorites. Since Circus Circus is so family-oriented, some of the restaurants close a little earlier on weekdays. Because of this, we advise you not to wait until the wee hours to get dinner or your options may be limited. Circus Circus is a long way from the center and south Strip's popular attractions. This distance is technically walkable, but it's a LONG walk. If you haven't got a car, your best option is to hail a cab, use your ride-sharing service or speak with a member of the front desk for public transportation assistance. You can park in one of three garages at Circus Circus. The Skyrise Tower has its own dedicated garage whereas the other two garages form something of an "L" shape at the resort's congested south end. Good to know: Please note: All rooms at the hotel are non-smoking; be prepared to pay a hefty cleaning fee if you light up. So please only smoke in designated areas, like the casino.  Self-parking is free.  For a better location, consider the still small yet very affordable rooms in the Skyrise Tower. They're perfect if you've got a group of kids in tow because they're close to both The Adventuredome and the resort's pools. For a splurge, the Casino Tower is the way to go. Located above the casino, its rooms are larger and come with all the modern comforts. If you have an allergy to children, this hotel is not for you. Just in case you're a bit slow on the uptake and missed this point from everything written above - expect to see a lot of kids at Circus Circus.
