Sahara Casino
In years past this was my choice of cheap hotels in Vegas. During convention weeks the rate can still be moderate and it’s convenience to the Convention Center make it a decent place to stay. There is nothing exceptional about the hotel rooms. The rooms are of decent size and in my opinion are a much better choice than the Circus Circus. They do have a nice pool area.
The casino has blackjack tables with lower costs per hand, I think $3 is the minimum at some of their tables, it used to be $1. The sports book is tucked in by the check in desk away from the main casino. There is a roller coaster and other video games in the area leading to the buffet.
Restaurants:
NASCAR CAFE – Decent hamburger and an interesting atmosphere with TVs and shells of Nascar cars.
Pacos Bar Grill – Not necessarily one of my favorite Mexican restaurants, but the food was not bad.
Sahara Buffet – One of the cheapest buffets on the strip. It is decent.
The Sahara is walking distance to the Stratosphere and a decent walk to the Circus Circus or Riviera. The monorail also connects to the property and is two stops away from the convention center.
