Circus Circus Reno – A Caesars Rewards Destination

8/10 Good

"We had a corner suite and it was big with great views of the street. The elevators were fast and the best place to eat was the crepe restaurant by the food court. Mexican restaurant was over priced and food was average. We enjoyed our stay and will return. The weekend room rate was expensive. Beware the free valet parking…our car was hit on side leaving a dent (which they aren’t responsible for!) so it cost $1800 to repair. Pretty expensive free valet parking. Park your own car and save the deductible that you paid your insurance."

Eldorado Reno – A Caesars Rewards Destination

8/10 Good

"The great thing about El Dorado is that you can literally get into an elevator (when they’re working) and be dropped right into the action directly from your hotel room. Breakfast & coffee are right outside the elevator. A short walk and you’re in Silver Legacy, then Circus Circus, all without stepping outside. We loved our 700 sq ft room with a hot tub. The elevator door made loud squeaking noises that we could hear from our room. During dinner hour, only 1 elevator was working, and we had to wait 5 minutes to be picked up. About 15 people were waiting when we got off. Otherwise, bars, tables, Rum Bullions, Brew Bros., etc were all nice amenities. Pool was so tiny that we didn’t even consider going in."
