Edgewater Hotel and Casino, Laughlin

We have stayed at the Edgewater many times over the past three years. We have never come across the a/c not working, rude employees, or being locked out. We've always had good luck being there, even in the casino! Hope it hasn't changed, as we are going back next month... Maybe I'll do a follow up review.

Laughlin is very safe and clean! Edgewater Hotel/Casino is right in the heart of Laughlin. Everything is within walking distance. My room looked out over the beautifull Colorado River. Comfortable beds and a great place to be. We did have 2 large moths in the room, we told the front desk, they apologized and the bugs were gone when we returned to our room after dinner. We are planning our next visit there asap.

Tried reserving a room online and kept getting 'House overbooked error'. Ended up calling in my reservation. Room was in need of a good cleaning or remodel. It smelled kind of funky, stains on the carpet, bathroom sink drained very slow. Bed was comfortable though. Casino also seemed run down, buttons on slots that wouldn't work, waitresses didn't seem to come around often. The guy in the sports book was very helpful though. Didn't try the restaurants, no opinion there.

It is in the middle of casino row. I just love it!

Went to try buffet out food was pretty good but staff member was rude had to wait at least 20mins for somebody to come ask wht would we like to drink ask for a straw never came back to give it to us ill never return there again and not even worth tiping a dime

the staff is always so freindly and and throoms are nice but what i like is the casino everything you want to play is there and the payoofs arent that bad either but i play poker most of the time and i would like to see more tournament at the edgewater cause thats what i play in

My husband stood there for two nights in June. Rates were good was treated very well. My husband lost his wedding ring and we had to run, when we came back room was clean and there was his ring sitting on the night stand. The room was very dated but we were there to enjoy the river and ammenities not the room. I was however dissapointed when we went to sit by the pool and discovered that there was no pool side bar as was said to be included in the ad I booked off of.. We were told there was a bar athe pool at the Colorado Belle so we walked all the way over there in our swim suits and it was closed plus IDK if it was the guests that were there but the pool area there was so ghetto broken chairs empty beer bottles and wet towels everywhere.. So we just bought a 12 pack (of cans) and went back to the beautiful pool at the Edgewater. Laughlin is a beautiful place to visit and if your like me and not as into gambling as you are into getting drunk and enjoying the history then book at the edgewater for cheap rooms and take advantage of the boat tours and what ever the river has to offer.... The Edgewater should get a poolside bar!!!!!!!

On a whim we decided to take another trip to Laughlin. We usually stay at Harrah’s at the end of the strip but this time decided to try something different, BIG MISTAKE. When we pulled in the parking structure we were greeted by stray cats roaming around the hotel compound. That’s good if you’re looking for cheap pest control but otherwise is an indicator that the facility is neglected. When we checked in the front desk staff was cold and rude. They didn’t have the professional appearance that other hotel s in Laughlin have. They were dressed in casual clothes (t-shirts and jeans). Fine, I was willing to compromise since the price was so competitive. We were assigned a room in the Santa Fe tower which should have been named the Mogadishu tower. The rooms weren’t properly cleaned, lacked basic necessities like an appropriate amount of towels, and was outdated. I kept telling myself that I got this room for a steal and should just deal with it. We cleaned up and headed out towards the Casino. Most of the games were old and the size of the Casino was small. It took forever to get a drink and we were the only ones under the age of 90. We decided we were going to head to more pleasant surroundings and took a cab to Harrah’s. We had a gambled, drank, and relaxed in the comfort of Harrah’s until it was time to get some shut eye. When we returned to our room we were greeting by an incessant chirping noise which turned out to be the fire alarm. We tried to call the front desk but instead were automatically routed to Security. In fact, dialing zero connects you to restaurant……WTF? We had to call security to get the problem fixed! Once that was taken care of we tried to call housekeeping to get some extra pillows and once again the Security Guard/Housekeeper/Maintenance Worker brought it to us. On a positive note the bed was pretty comfortable. When we woke up we decided on a last ditch attempt to be impressed by the folks at the Edgewater. We opted for the ever popular Buffet. Once again, not just a huge let down, a disaster. I’ll sum up the Buffet experience by advising the readers of this review to stay away from the ribs unless you like BBQ pork jerky……seriously. I left the Edgewater feeling dirtier than when I arrived. From now on Harrah’s has my business when I’m in town.

So there are alot of poor reviews for the Edgewater. Basically, some people want alot for a little bit of money. We go to Laughlin 4-5 times a year and we always stay at the Edgewater. It is smack dab in the middle of the strip, so your close to everything (directly accross the street from the Outlet Mall). Best gaming on the river and their rewards club is by far the best. The Hickory Pit (not the best name) is the best, the atmosphere is quiet, cozy and very clean. The food is superb, they have the best French Onion Soup on the planet. Outstanding steak house and the prime rib is amazing. The rooms are for the most part, blah, but there is always hot water, clean towels and the housekeeping staff is always friendly and willing to give you whatever you need. The buffet is ok, it really depends on what time you get there as to house fresh your food is going to be anyway. The only Casino on the river that has serveral Roulette wheels, everywhere else has a couple. So many slots, your bound to find what your looking for. I love staying at the edgewater, its perfect for a weekend getaway and I have never ever been disappointed. My hubby and I always have a blast and make the most of every trip to Laughlin.

Cocktail waitresse's, cage employee's, valet & baggage personel are the best. Gift shop employee's are rude, but the host office & MOD's do what they can to accomodate your need's. The slot machines pay pretty good. It's well worth the 10 hour drive I make to stay & play here,
