In this video we are doing a review of staying at Horseshoe Hotel and Casino at the center of the Las Vegas Strip. I stayed in the cheapest room available (Resort King) and was able to get upgraded to a higher floor with a better view without doing the $20 trick. I’ll give you a walkthrough tour of the property, show you a lot of activities and new things to do since they changed their name from Bally’s. We’ll cover the hotel room, the WSOP poker room, how to find the uber and lyft pickup spot, the new arcade (former sportsbook), Twilight Zone by Monster Mini Golf, Bodies Exhibit, National Geographic Rarely Seen, Cabinet of Curiosities Bar and Speakeasy, gym/fitness center, food court, pool, monorail station, Bazaar Shops, steakhouse, restaurants, best photo spots and history (MGM fire). We’ll wrap up the video with pros and cons, the resort fee, taxes, how good of a value the property is (cheap vs expensive), what type of traveler it is ideal for and a few employee shout outs!

Not even close to the best Resort in Vegas
imagine if you would of tipped first
"newest" casino? its a rebadged repainted ballys. the rooms look like a ground up build of a hampton inn, nothing special here
This was a nice video. Very helpful, thanks.
The bodies exhibit is so disturbing…
Jacob you do have a talent for an informational video. Horseshoe needs to hire you!
Should have gotten a pizza
All Hail Jacob The Goat
I have only been to Las Vegas once and stayed at Bally’s. Other than a few new attractions on the lower level, the place looks pretty much the same. It was cheap and had a very good location. Parking was free back then (5 years ago). Definitely a bargain for a comfortable but not terribly fancy place.
I stayed here in September, during the transition, I honestly loved our stay , the location is fantastic and rooms were spacious. We even got partial view of the fountains and Eiffel Tower view, so far my favorite 🙂
Lol the resort fee is more than the price of the room everything in Vegas is a scam all this greed has to catch up to them charging six to eight dollars for a bottle of water is the average price in Vegas that's ridiculous if you enjoy gambling good food and entertainment save your money and go to Laughlin Nevada
Great video! Thanks
Maybe obtain Diamond status for comp rooms and NO resort fees? I haven't paid for a room and resort fees since my first trip there in 2013, and I go there 4, 5 6 per year.
What is it with Vegas hotels no longer providing rooms with bathtubs? It used to be pretty standard.
You got the upgrade because they knew you
I'd rather have the old spa at Ballys back over all this other bs. I can see the old dumbells are the very same ones they had when I used to use the spa/fitness center.
Love the upgrade in production value Jacob. Keep up the great work!
I thought this was about to be at the Horseshoe in Baltimore lol
Glad you mentioned a little history and the famous fire of 1980. I read that some people in the casino didn't want to leave their slot machine even though the place was on fire—how dumb was that. Also, Vegas supposedly now has the toughest fire code in the country because of that fire.
Thanks Jacob, love your video, very informative. Suggestion, not nagging but you might want to redact your receipt. It shows way too much info. Be safe.
Did you mean to show everyone your address on your hotel receipt?
Still looks unfinished. Classless as well. Won’t stay there anymore. Used to stay when it was Ballys and BLT Steak was there. We had a lot of good times there. They brought Binions Steakhouse in there and they charge almost $100 for a steak. Outrageous. Your reward points won’t take you very far. I used to gamble and have enough points to pay for dinner for me, my wife, and my father. Forget it know.
You can tell you know something about guns the way you handled that arcade gun at 8:44.
I used to bring my 80 year old Dad to Vegas for the Manny Pacquiao fights and the University of Hawaii football games versus UNLV, and we usually stayed at Ballys. They were always nice to us and we enjoyed ourselves. There was a huge Sportsbook in the bottom level; it looked like a big, sloping down auditorium. Wonder how their Sportsbook is now? We also stayed at the Rio back in it’s glory days. Now that was a fun action packed hotel with it’s Mardi Gras theme, famous buffets, loose slots and tables, rooftop nightclub, gorgeous waitresses, all rooms were suites, great pools, fabulous shows like Danny Gans and Prince. So sad to hear about the Rio’s demise.
To long time locals it will always be the MGM Grand. I parked in front ot the Dunes and watched flames shooting out from the front of the hotel.
The Horseshoe died with Benny Binion.
Thank you, nice informational video! Looks like a nice place to stay for the price…
