It’s no secret that Las Vegas is getting more expensive by the day. Las Vegas Strip pricing can create jaw-dropping receipts for Sin City vacationers and locals alike, with $10-plus slices of pizza and $20 to 30 cocktails. When you pair these prices with the rising of table minimums and pricier hotel rooms across the city, it creates a demand for bringing deals back to those who want to explore the “Most Fun City in America” on tighter budgets. That’s why a hotel and casino property like the Downtown Grand on Fremont Street is attractive for those looking for the cheapest way to get around on their Vegas vacation. With deals on food and drinks that harken back to a past era, it’s a refreshing sight amid the growing cost of staying in Las Vegas.

When the property opened in 2013, the hotel looked to modernize the original footprint of Sin City carved out a century ago. Its promotions also nod to the Vegas of the past, when $1 table games were ubiquitous. While the term “Old Vegas” gets thrown around, the area’s revitalization, paired with its affordability, continues to attract locals and visitors in search of great deals and action in town.
