Real Deal on the Circus Circus
Circus Circus is like a dirty diaper... warm, comfortable and a little stinky, unless you're not the one who soiled it. The ol big top is cute beast, part flea market, part human petting zoo and monument to an epoch of bad taste... Now. This isn't to say that Circus Circus doesn't have good qualities... A fine steakhouse, cheap hotel rooms and the trashfabulous SlotsAFun annex, but the question for most trippers is how much of the unwashed masses can you withstand.
Are the vibes lucky at Circus Circus?
Clowns are kinda creepy. The casino is nice once you've gone in there and colored up at a table, but for some reason, we equate Circus Circus with children more than gaming. If it weren't for Dr. Hunter S. Thompson giving us a fresh perspective on this joint, we'd probably never go there. The Midway features carnival games area, acrobat shows, clowns and a Krispy Kreme shop to keep kids occupied... parents can gamble away downstairs. The Adventuredome out back is jam packed with roller coasters and other thrill rides.
Most often overheard phrase at Circus-Circus: "Kids, here's a roll of quarters and a key to the room... i'll see you in a coupla days." Or maybe that was just me.
What casino games are offered at Circus Circus?
The Circus Circus casino is broken up into three distinct gaming areas (which isn't the easiest casino to navigate through when your half-in-the-bag). Slots are everywhere (including a revolving merry-go-round) and there is BlackJack, Craps, Roulette, Big Six, PaiGow, Caribbean Stud, Let It Ride, Casino War and a small poker room just to the left of the main entrance.
Does Circus Circus have casino comps?
Good early preparation for gambling for the young'ns. Get them dropping their quarters into the Chicken Launcher until they can trade up for Three Card Poker when they come of age.... kidding.

You can't go wrong with any place James Bond would be seen in.

As Hunter. S Thompson said, "The Circus Circus is what the whole hep world would be doing on a Saturday night if the Nazi's had won the war"
A must Visit for any Fear and Loathing fan.. The best part of it all (besides the buttload of video and carnavial games) Is the Carasauel Bar up stairs..I recommend you go there (after midnight to avoid the herds and herds of little people, and no I dont mean midgets) with a friend and drink till the point of complete intoxication then one of you kick the other off of the spinning bar.. And If your REALLY ballsy asks the cocktail waitress "How much do they pay you to fuck that polar bear?".
DO it no just for yourself but for the late great Hunter S. Thompson...
My only dissapointment is that the casino workers ARE NOT dressed like carnies :(

The only affordable joint on the Strip still offering a decent gamble that wears clown shoes.

I visited this property and was not impressed at all i thought the layout and direction was horrible. we were there just to meet up with a family friend who resides in vegas and we stopped off and ate at mcd's and the service sucked as did the food i wouldn't reccomend this place to any one. the casino was very cluttered and dark and smelled like an old ashtray was sitting in front of your face the whole time and the staff was not very freindly in giving direction to different parts of the property and had no sense of direction.. the only thing that i liked was the canyon blaster coaster at the adventure dome

Be afraid of the clown. He's one of those creepy clowns.

Where do I begin. I went here to get a drink at the carousel bar. My friend and I got a Dewar's on the rocks and I guess we should have asked to hold the flies. Yep, there were flies inside the bottle. The carousel bar is on the midway level so it was fun to watch the kids wait for their mothers seats to circle around so they could get more money.

circus circus is a great place to stay if you are on a budget. sure it's nothing fancy but in vegas a hotel room is just a place to sleep at and to keep your shit at while you go have fun.
