Caesars Palace

Roman columns, marble statues and one of the busiest casino floors in Nevada. Caesars is pure theatre, and it knows exactly how to put on the show.

What the floor tells us

Caesars Palace opened in 1966, which makes it one of the Strip’s true veterans. The Roman theme has never gone away; it has simply been rebuilt bigger, so you will still find columns, fountains and statues at almost every turn.

The resort is spread across several towers, each with its own personality. Newer and renovated towers offer sleeker rooms, while the hotel-within-a-hotel run by Nobu gives a quieter, more design-led stay without leaving the property.

The gaming floor is huge and lively, with a large sportsbook that fills up on fight nights and big game days. If you prefer a calmer table, head away from the main entrance where the limits climb and the noise drops.

Away from the casino, the Colosseum theatre hosts headline residencies, the Forum Shops are a destination in themselves, and the Garden of the Gods pool complex is one of the best places on the Strip to spend a hot afternoon.
