The 8 best hotels in Laughlin

Discover the top hotels in Laughlin handpicked by travel expert Daniel Scheffler.

For a quirky desert getaway with plenty of oddball adventure, Laughlin, a resort town straddling Nevada and Arizona, doesn’t disappoint. There you can gamble, golf, and drink a-plenty, as well as head out on the nearby river with Watercraft Adventures. While you’re in town, don’t miss a visit to Oatman Ghost Town, a one-time gold-mining town, and Laughlin Labyrinths. If you need to get around, I recommend using the River Passage Water Taxi, which stops all along the river, as well as at the famous casinos. Although there are no fancy or luxury hotels in town, the best hotels in Laughlin are a mix of old-school casino properties and a few well-known brand names. Be prepared for oodles of fun in the sun, and some of the best people watching in the world. It’s nothing swish, but it is a whole lot of joy. Here’s my pick of the best hotels to stay in Laughlin.

1.

Don Laughlin's Riverside Resort & Casino

Address:

1650 South Casino Drive

Price:

$40-$248/night

If you want to stay at a classic, fun hotspot, this is one of the best hotels in Laughlin to book. It was built in 1966 and today boasts over 1,400 rooms. I recommend booking a room with a balcony overlooking the desert mountains.

The hotel is attached to the casino and offers so much on-site entertainment you might not even leave the property. There’s a celebrity theater that offers all kinds of shows, a six-screen movie theater, and the famed poker room, which has a large rear window offering fantastic views over the Colorado River.

I also recommend asking about the hotel’s yacht, the U.S.S. Riverside, which is available for charter. One of my other highlights is the Classic Car Museum, which is a free exhibition of antique and classic cars, trucks and motorcycles (my favorite is the Steve McQueen bike).

2.

Golden Nugget Laughlin

Address:

2300 South Casino Drive

Price:

$32-$347/night

With over 300 rooms, this is a down-to-earth place right on the river bank. It’s one of the best hotels in Laughlin for those traveling with friends. If you’re looking to splurge, book their Gold Rush three-bedroom villa, which has a courtyard with a gas fire pit plus a spa for a little me-time.

In terms of eating at the casino, it’s got it all, from Saltgrass Steak House to the classic Widow Maker Burger at CJ’s. This is the place to come to let your hair down and have a good time – and trust me when I say the nightlife at the Rush lounge will not disappoint.

I spent most of my time enjoying the desert air at the pool, which I loved for a spot of sunbathing and splashing around. It’s also worth asking the concierge about the fun UTV desert trips with OUI Experience.

3.

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Bullhead City

Address:

1300 Silver Creek Road

Price:

$114-$229/night

This Holiday Inn is set right across the river on the Arizona side. If you want to be a little away from the main strip, this is one of the best hotels in Laughlin and the surrounding area to book. It’s an airport property that’s also very close to Riverview Golf Course and the Mohave Crossroads Shopping Center.

There’s a range of guestrooms and one and two-bedroom suites, all with microwaves and fridges for added convenience. There are plenty of amenities too, and although the hotel is nothing fancy, it’s well-kept and inexpensive. I love the heated indoor pool, which is great in the evenings when the desert cools right down.

4.

Avi Resort & Casino

Address:

10000 Aha Macav Parkway

Price:

$28-$285/night

This little gem is located right on the gorgeous Colorado River. It’s one of the best hotels in Laughlin if you’re after remodeled rooms and a sprawling palace with no resort fees. Out of their vast selection of rooms I recommend going for a suite, as they’re very well priced and come with plenty of extra space.

If you’re feeling peckish, head down to Feathers Cafe for something casual like a burger. My favorite part of this hotel is its white-sand beachfront on the river, where you can laze in the sun and watch the boats racing by.

There’s a selection of slots and table games at the hotel, so if you’re interested in betting, you’re in the right place. Right across the river from the resort is the Mojave Crossing Event Center, where you can catch everything from rodeos and monster truck extravaganzas to high-flying motorcycle stunt jumping.

5.

Aquarius Casino Resort, BW Premier Collection

Address:

1900 South Casino Drive

Price:

$29-$281/night

This is the largest gaming resort in Laughlin, and it also happens to be non-smoking. Here you’ll find over 1,900 rooms and suites to choose from, as well as a gigantic casino. This is one of the best hotels in Laughlin for lovers of gambling, with all the newest slot machines on-site.

But the hotel also offers plenty of dining options, like Duet Coffee and Wine for an evening nightcap or the River Rock for pizza, pasta, and so much more. Since locals get all kinds of special offers at this hotel and casino, lots of folks from town come to hang out here – so it’s a great place to meet some friendly neighbors and have a chat.

I also recommend asking the concierge for top tips about the nearby nature trails for a hike.

6.

Days Inn Bullhead City

Address:

1126 Highway 95

Price:

$36-$140/night
