拉斯维加斯的新奥尔良
neworleansinlasvegas
There isa freeshuttlebus that runs from
The Orleans to its sister property The Gold
Coast, and on to Bill’s Gamblin’ Hall on the
Strip, and thenbackagain, every30minutes
between 9am and 12:30am every day. This
may not sound like much but it is a huge
sellingpoint.Taxis inLasVegasareexpensive,
you have to tip them and they can be very
hard togetwhen it’sbusy, so it reallypays to
use the shuttle.
The gaming is well runwith plenty to
choose from. All your favorite table games
like baccarat, blackjack, roulette, pai gow
poker and fortune three-card poker are
spread. For all the lucky tigersout thereyou
can clink away on over 3,000 of the latest
slots. There is a60-seat, 24-hour keno room
where you can chill out andwatch theballs
drop till your eyes drop out. An excellent
35-table poker room looks after the poker
players and spreads a great range of cash
games anddaily tournaments.
The sports book is busy and action
packed. Sports books are one thing that
Vegas does better than Macau, especially
given thatMacaudoesn’thave
any
in-casino
sports books – but that is a discussion best
left for another day. TheOrleans has a great
sports book full of colorful characters. You

If you likepromotionsand special deals

room. Currently,Tuesday is“seniorsday”, and
there is always a host of other promotions
on offer at the Orleans. The Orleans “B

LasVegas really leavesMacau for dead
on the entertainment front. There is just
so much to see and do off the tables in
Vegas. The Orleans Arena opened in 2003
and since then has stagedMonster Trucks,
championship boxing cards, Disney on Ice,
theHarlemGlobetrotters and theLasVegas
Gladiatorsarena football team, toname just
a few. TheOrleans showroom is an850-seat
theater, showing local and international
acts. There is also an 18-screen cinema
complex, ten-pin bowling complex and a
long listofbars, clubsandmusicvenues that

struggling tofit everything in.
There are multiple food options to
choose from, ranging from fine dining to
Subway. My personal favorite is Big Al’s
OysterBarwhereyoucanget freshlyshucked

andCajunflair.
The Orleans is simply a good place to
spend time. It’s well run, clean, friendly and
cheap. If five-star service seems a waste of
money toyou, thenyoucoulddoa lotworse
