Aquarius Casino Resort

We are a family of six: four adults and two children, and we booked our stay through Hotels.com, specifically requesting two non-smoking bedrooms. Upon arrival, we were informed that non-smoking rooms were unavailable, and only smoking options were left. Since this didn’t meet our needs because were traveling with children and older adults, we informed them to cancel our reservation. The receptionist was very understanding and spoke with her manager on our behalf. Fortunately, she returned with a solution: the manager offered to accommodate us in their other tower, where non-smoking rooms were indeed available. We appreciated their willingness to find a resolution but not sure why we were not no placed there the beginning. While we were grateful for the solution, we did find that the overall facilities could use significant updates and a thorough cleaning. Overall, we had an unpleasant experience and would recommend staying somewhere else.

This POS hotel charged a smoking fee for my room lol. The room smelled like weed when I came in. I don't smoke anything. I only drink. They're CLEARLY hurting in Laughlin and will try anything. The connecting door to the room next to me has light coming thru it haha. Oh so honest Aquarius. Criminals. Trust and believe this is getting disputed. Room was pretty trashy as well. The whole floor smelled like weed. They said smoke was detected and the alarm went off in the 3am hour lmao. I was asleep. ||||*edit : after doing some digging - I've seen other people with similar issues here and edgewater (both owned by golden entertainment) Is it to help their numbers look good at the end of the day? No wonder Laughlin is a dying (or dead) city. Stay away from the Aquarius.

This hotel charged me 419.00 extra saying I was smoking in the room. This is totally false. I called the hotel, and spoke with one person that took my information and said she would forward it to the accounting department. I later left voice messages with the accounting department. Nobody ever returned my call. I even had my credit card company try to work this out, with no success. I have read online that others have had the exact same experience at this establishment. Beware of this place.

Rooms are outdated with peeling wallpaper, clogged sink and popcorn ceilings. We were there 2 nights and our room was not serviced whatsoever. The location is good in Laughlin but its a smoking casino although being able to walk around with your own drinks is a plus.

Room was good size and clean but there was a musty/old smell to it. We had a non smoking room but it wasn't fresh. Casino workers not as friendly as valet staff. We had dinner at outback food and drinks were on point, server was not as friendly, we had lots of questions. Overall we had a great 3 days, we would return. The internet was spotty too.

This is my first time going to Laughlin. My husband and I went with 6 other couples. I was not sure what to expect as I have heard mixed reviews about Laughlin. It was definitely a great weekend getaway.. ||Our room is on the California side 11th floor. The is lobby and casino is clean but The hotel is dated and you can smoke inside the hotel. (Which felt weird for me to smoke a cigar inside a building) There are several eateries/ restaurants inside the casino. However, we ate on the Riverwalk and a steak restaurant at the edge water . ||At first , I thought Laughlin was going to be boring , but there was plenty to do. The first night we go there , in the evening, there was a country / rock band playing , line dancing . of course the riverwalk is nice at night . Gives you access to the Riverside Casino and The Edgewater. The other hotels have their own entertainment.||Our room is spacious with a king bed , mini refrigerator, view of the river. The room is clean but very dated. (I like to bring my own cleaning supplies with me to clean my room before I unpack) I wiped down all the furniture/ bathroom / toilet / shower. I spray the bed / bring my own sheets. But I must say at night the view is pretty with the casino lights and the boats on the river.||I did reserve a cabana on Sunday ( from 11-3pm) . Laughlin is hot and cabana was nice to hide from the heat. The cabana was nice for privacy or to lay out with friends. The cabana came with a mini refrigerator, fan, tv, loungers. I known it’s summer time for the kiddos and are on summer break but for a big hotel I feel like they should have an adult side especially if there is a bar in the pool area. I was not able to enjoy the pool as it started to|Fill up with kids. ||Valet parking is on point. Like I said Laughlin is hot. Makes it convenient to come to front and walk straight to the entrance of the casino vs parking my own car and walking in the heat. ||My overall stay at the hotel was fun and the staff is very nice. I did not have any problems or complaints.

Had a really enjoyable stay at Aquarius Casino Resort. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was friendly and helpful throughout my visit. The casino itself was lively without feeling overwhelming, and there were plenty of dining options to choose from. I also liked how convenient the location was right along the river — it made for a nice walk in between gaming and meals. Overall, a fun and relaxing spot to stay in Laughlin.

This is our go to hotel when we visit Laughlin. It has a great location on the river close to the water taxi and within walking distance to Edgewater, Riverside, and Tropicana. We always visit with a group and they are great about putting us in the same tower and even the same floor if rooms are available. Most of our group walked away with more money than we came with. They have a great selection of slot machines and table games. We enjoy playing the machines with a river view. The cocktail waitress did a great job of keeping us hydrated, especially in the afternoon and evening. We ate breakfast at the cafe and everything was delicious. They even have great daily specials! We love the Aquarius and will be back!

I'll start by saying this: remember, you don't come to Laughlin expecting Vegas. You come for the river, not for luxury nightlife or fine-dining restaurants. With that in mind, the Aquarius Hotel might just be the best Laughlin has to offer. Compared to Harrah's, which has definitely seen better days (and now seems to think a small stretch of beach justifies ridiculous prices), the Aquarius feels like it's at least trying to maintain itself. The carpets looked good, the rooms were freshly painted, and the furniture didn't look worn out. That's more than you can say for a lot of properties in town. Don't get me wrong, this is still a "Best Western" vibe at heart, but it's clean and reasonably well-kept, which in Laughlin counts as a win. I booked a riverview room, only to find out on arrival that "riverview" can apparently mean "parking lot." A little disappointing. I ended up switching to a two-bed room in the family tower, which was fine, but not what I expected. Other than that, my stay was okay. The breakfast restaurant was decent, good enough for the morning but I would recommend skipping the on-site Outback Steakhouse; it didn't live up to even chain-restaurant standards. Overall, the Aquarius is a solid choice if you're in Laughlin. It's not luxury, but it's clean, maintained, and reasonably priced. I'd stay here again,, just double-check what "riverview" means before you book.

My two-night reservation at the Aquarius Hotel Casino Laughlin from October 25-27, 2025, turned into one of the worst hotel experiences I've ever encountered. What should have been a relaxing weekend getaway became a frustrating ordeal that ended with me leaving the property within hours of arrival. The problems began immediately upon check-in on October 25th. The front desk agent insisted I "upgrade" to an Arizona Sunset Suite, presenting it more as a requirement than an option. Exhausted from my drive, I reluctantly agreed, hoping this might actually improve my stay. Instead, I walked into a room that was completely unacceptable. A thick, stale smoky smell permeated the entire suite, making it difficult to breathe comfortably. The cleaning standards were shockingly poor, with visible signs of neglect throughout the space. To add insult to injury, the "Arizona Sunset Suite" overlooked the parking lot on the Nevada side--hardly the scenic view the name suggested. Realizing I couldn't spend even one night in these conditions, I returned to the front desk hoping for a reasonable solution. What followed was perhaps even more disappointing than the room itself. The front desk agent was dismissive and defensive rather than apologetic or helpful. When I requested to speak with a manager, I expected someone with the authority and willingness to resolve the situation. Instead, I found myself arguing for five solid minutes about whether a smoky, poorly cleaned room was acceptable. Both the manager and front desk agent seemed more interested in defending the property than addressing my legitimate concerns. Finally, exhausted by the circular arguments and complete lack of customer care, I demanded to be checked out. I simply couldn't stay at a property that had failed so completely at providing basic hospitality. However, the manager delivered one final blow: she informed me that she would check me out the following day, not immediately, and that I would still be charged for the first night including the resort fee. I would be paying for a room I couldn't use, amenities I never accessed, and service I never received--all because of their failures, not mine. I drove across the river to Bullhead City and booked a room at the Holiday Inn Express & Suites. Yes, it was more expensive, and yes, I was now paying for two rooms for the same night thanks to the Aquarius's inflexible checkout policy. But the moment I entered that clean, fresh-smelling Holiday Inn room and was greeted by professional, courteous staff, I knew I had made the right decision. Sometimes paying more is absolutely worth it when you receive actual value and basic respect. What makes this experience particularly frustrating isn't just the poor room quality or even the financial loss--it's the complete absence of accountability. Hotels have problems occasionally; what matters is how they respond. The Aquarius Hotel Casino Laughlin had multiple opportunities to make things right: they could have offered a different room, waived the charges when I left, or simply shown genuine concern for my satisfaction. Instead, they chose confrontation, indifference, and extracting every possible dollar from a guest they had already failed. For anyone considering the Aquarius Hotel Casino Laughlin, I strongly urge you to look elsewhere. The Laughlin-Bullhead City area has many other options that will provide better value, cleaner rooms, and professional service. Don't make the mistake I did--your time, money, and peace of mind are worth more than what this establishment has to offer.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

We are LONG TIME LOYAL Aquarius club card holders. Been going there over a decade several times a year and we always come with a big group of 12, some of them high rollers. We all have only ever stayed at Aquarius. We will never come back and neither will anyone from our group. In July I was playing craps and had $300 stolen from me while playing. None of the 3 dealers at the table saw it. When I mentioned my chip count was off the dealers accused me of lying and got hostile towards me. They then demanded I leave the table so I went to the security office. I am happily giving the only star here for your outstanding security team who agreed to view the camera footage and confirmed I was stolen from at the table. When I asked to escalate to a manager I was denied and refused to leave the table until someone in management would come talk to me. Instead, I was 86'd from the hotel in the middle of the night and denied entry to my room where my wife and kids were sleeping. I was calm and never raised my voice and never used a single profanity yet I was ejected anyway simply for the fact that I refused to leave until I could talk to a manager. The following morning I came back to the hotel to check out and to talk to a manager who then informed me I was trespassing and would be arrested if I didn't leave immediately. Your customer service is absolutely terrible and cost your Hostetler's of thousands of dollars per year for the rest of our lives. We will still be regulars in Laughlin but the Aquarius will never see any of us again.

So much wrong in so many ways. Arrived at 330pm on Friday afternoon. Valet was disorganized. I did not know which lane to go. Other customer yelled at me for blocking the way so I picked a lane. Apparently I picked the wrong lane, valet said I needed to go all the way back around and get into the correct lane. How am I supposed to know which lane is correct if there is no signage?!? I am guessing they didn't want to help me because of my California plate or because I am Asian. They repeatedly helped all the white customers first. Waited for bell guy for 15 minutes. I see him going to the white couple who waited for 5 minutes. At this point, I was fed up and told them we were waiting first. The white lady in the couple yells at me to tell me they were first. A lot of underlying racism in this city. Also, if you come back late, there is no more valet for regular customers, only their elite customers. Why anyone would be an elite customer here is beyond me. All of the disabled parking is taken up by raised trucks. Hotel is dated, there was no safe. All of the stuff was old and scuffed. Bathtub did not drain, so you are standing in your own dirty bath water. The bed is so uncomfortable. The mattress at the feet end was higher than the head side. It felt like you were sleeping on straight springs. We left a day early and did not care about losing the $150 for that night. Laughlin is cheap for a reason. The hotels are terrible. The food is terrible- the best thing to eat is In n Out. The people are not friendly and there are definitely racist undertones. Go to Vegas, an hour away and everything is just better. There are cheap options, more expensive options, a million food choices.

LAUGHLIN's SEMI-MODERN RESORT!! The Aquarius is in the middle of a remodel, much of the casino and resort has been updated and is continuing to modernize. Several of the restaurants, bars, and common areas are crisp and new! Much of the property feels refreshed. The Aquarius has a gift shop, coffee shop (Duet), McDonald's, Subway and several top-notch restaurants. My favorite was the revamped River Rock Pizza. If you're looking for steak or American fare, there's an Outback and Cafe Aquarius. Outside dining tables are available but I'm not sure for which restaurant. The Splash Bar is a fun spot within the resort with a full bar and live music till 2am on select nights. My parents and I visited during their anniversary and there was no pressure to drink. We hit the dance floor and had a great time! Overall, the hotel rooms were solid, they could use a slight touch up but I enjoyed them. The rooms have INCREDIBLE beds, linens, and pillows. I had the best night of sleep while staying here and I didn't want to part from my mattress upon leaving. Housekeeping ensured everything was bright white and clean. The Aquarius asks that guests call housekeeping if they need their beds made or require new towels, this is to conserve water. Remember to tip the Aquarius' incredible hospitality team! The Aquarius is right next to the Colorado River and has sweeping views of the water. You'll find two towers that make up the resort, the California and Arizona towers respectively. I stayed in the Arizona tower and it was quite comfortable. It's near the check-in/concierge desk. Note: Subway is open 24/7 and hotel parking is FREE.

Only reason the rating is so low, long waits for the elevators to get up most of the time, drain in the shower was terrible, always standing in dirty water, and the drain in the sink was loud and also slow. Otherwise the property is in a great location, casino is great, everyone we encountered as far as employees were friendly and helpful. Not sure I would stay again, hadn't stayed in year and clearly no recent updates. Prices were fair though and the pool is clean.

We stayed at the Aquarius Resort & Casino during our stay in Laughlin. My favorite part of this resort is the parking structure. We arrived while it was raining really hard, but the convenience of the parking structure made it easy for us to get to the casino entrance. There are 4 elevators in every floor of the parking structure and there was a 12 ft uncovered walkway between the 1st floor parking structure and casino entrance that we had to run through in the rain which wasn't bad at all. Check-in was fast and easy. The hotel is a bit older but still nice and comfortable enough to enjoy our stay. The 1st floor boasts the largest casino square footage in all of Laughlin, as well as a McDonald's & a Subway that are both open 24 hours. The place was packed, esp since we were there during Valentine's Day weekend. Staff are nice and helpful. Our room was very clean and had a floor to ceiling panoramic window with a stunning view of the strip, desert, and river. I love waking up early in the morning and enjoying that beautiful view through the window. We enjoyed the Riverwalk (a walkway between the back of the hotels and the river's edge), where you can enjoy the view of the river. My only gripe w this hotel is their shower toiletries. The bottles say "squeeze from the sides" but nothing comes out. These were not user friendly shampoo & bodybwash. Laughlin is a very calm, relaxing small town w a very, very chill vibe. If you're looking for the Vegas party vibe w lots of people and crowded streets and lots of traffic everywhere, this place is not for you. Thank you Aquarius Casino Resort for making our visit to Laughlin very special!! It was indeed very, very relaxing!! Absolutely looking forward to coming back here!! Definitely want more of this!!

First off the TV's in the room are so small you can't read the script while searching the guide. The bath tub drains are clogged, the tissue box say premium but they fall apart when you blow your nose. While playing the slots you can forget drink service. I walked over to the bar and asked for a coke and was charged four dollars even after explaining the drink service was poor. The ownership buts no profits back into the operation which the taxi drivers will give you a complete break down. To be to the point the place flat sucks!!

My bank wouldn't remove the charge. I ended up closing that credit card as well. This pos hotel got $600 off of me because they just randomly decided to bestow a smoking charge on my account for my room. Never in my life have I seen such an obvious fraudulent tactic being used by such a big company/hotel. Stay away from all Golden Entertainment properties. Not only are the rooms TRASH , but so are their ethics.

Views from hotel room very pretty.. Gaming floor nice. Hot weather during this trip. August . I saw that the pool is very popular. Too hot outside for me.

First time in Laughlin! Stayed at the Aquarius Casino. Rooms are clean and comfortable. The receptionist was very friendly and helpful. Will definitely stay here again.

I was playing bj at about 11:30pm on 11/12/2025. The GM rolls by and said that it was his table now....he didnt ask, but told me to move on. I told him to be a big boy, then 5 security guards rolled up and kicked me out of the whole casino. He's like 5.2ft at best.

Let's start with valet and bell great service . Lady at check in desk not friendly seemed bothered by asking for the reservation we made a month ago to have 3 rooms on the same floor we are traveling with a 90 and 88 year olds that need some assistance. They wanted to split our group into two different towers when making reservation the representative said no problem we will put you all on the same floor close to the elevator why make promises you can't keep. When we said no that wouldn't work then came attitude so not a great start I guess we can try another hotel next time.

First time and last time in Laughlin. They tried to charge my card without my authorization at 8:46 pm on 9/19/25 for $562.50. At that time my wife and I were at the next hotel over playing bingo. They said it's a smoking fee! I wasn't smoking and what kind of hotel has smoke/vape detectors? This one apparently! So janky and sketch! I'm never coming back! Wtf is that about! And I still wasn't smoking, I was in bingo! Nobody was in our room. My card declined the charge thank god but they said they're keeping my $150 deposit. I should seriously sue their asses! This has to be illegal! I'll never be back! So much for a nice weekend with my wife on her bday! Instead we get money stolen from us within hours of checking in! Ya, I JUST CHECKED IN TOO! Since I'm reviewing that, the bed is springy and uncomfortable and the bathroom is gross too. I'm ready to go home now!

Fav hotel to stay at and play at! Clean! Friendly! Atmosphere amazing I mean since I was a little girl we always came! But now being able to gamble drink we have always stayed here I have stayed other hotels but this one just hits the jackpot.

Not cool charging $4.00 for water at the bar in the back where all the tvs are . Next to the restaurant.

These days, Aquarius is the pick for a decent affordable stay. Harrahs is tucked away and has a cool beach, but the hotel is a dump. No beach at Aquarius, but there are beautiful views from their floor to ceiling windows. My room, well, we'll get to that in a couple of paragraphs. The casino is pretty big, and there are more than enough slots to keep you entertained.....if losing entertains you. I wouldn't say that the machines are tight. Let's just say that they're like putting on a pair of pants that you once wore back in high school. I wasn't pleased that the Pick up Stix restaurant was closed for the two days that I was there. I enjoy Chinese takeout, but it was not to be. For a quick pick-up meal, you can get Subway or McDonald's. With those as my choices, I opted to brave the 112° weather and go up the street to In and Out. As always, it was worth it. When I checked in, I greeted the front desk person with a big smile and engaged her in polite conversation. That in conjunction with a little lettuce in the card sandwich landed me in a spacious room on the 17th floor. As I mentioned, the view is fantastic. My bed was comfortable and the room was clean. Coffee pods, bottled water, and a small fridge rounded out the amenities. I took them all. No, not the refrigerator, I use the water down the road and give the coffee pods to my daughters. One of the days that I was at Aquarius, they had a promotion. Earn 300 points, and you get a half dozen Pinkbox doughnuts. Considering that each doughnut costs $1.95, you're looking at a nice perk. However, each point is like a dollar of play, so you can do the math on that one. I saw some folks with arms full of boxes. After earning all those points, I'm guessing that for them, it's doughnuts, breakfast, lunch, and dinner! Quick Tip: For those of you who don't know what a card sandwich is, when asked for your I.D. and credit card, slip a little green in-between. If the agent can do it, they'll give you an upgrade. Don't ask me what happens if the agent can't do it. I've never run into that situation. I'm guessing that they'll politely slide your gratuity back. On second thought, in this economy, there's a good chance they'll keep it.

The rooms are decent. Was there for Thanksgiving (11-26 thru 11-29). Dining choices are good. My only complaint was 1 of the cocktail servers on the floor named Alex was very very rude, it's not the first time I have had to deal with his rudeness. Was there in September for 3 days and had the same problem with Alex, I thought he was just having a bad day the first time. He needs to have better customer service skills!

It's Laughlin. Not Vegas. How much can you really expect? There's lots of good options right there so you do t need to walk anywhere in the 118 degree heat. The pool is whatever. $200 to reserve a cabana for4 hours. There's a bar but not much else. The rooms need major updates. Plasma TVs have the Hotel image and printed on the screen, refrigerator, freezes your food, and the room is just very dated. Many of the elevators need some TLC. The staff are great and very helpful. There's lots of options for people who like to play at the tables or on the machines. They have a great live band. What I found to be, the biggest perk was a $2.99 breakfast special during the month of August at the café, which was absolutely delicious and filling. The $4 coffee cost more than my food.

No bed bugs , Clean and Great staff !! The hotel rooms were clean and between up to date and old school . Now after reviews i was definitely hesitant about staying with the view of the bed bugs 2 yrs ago i seen on here . But still booked because of the great price and thinking well i'm sure they have gotten rid of them by now and i was correct ! My room was bug free as well as my families room down the hall from us great condition . Breakfast at the hotel was definitely mid but clean environment and friendly stuff made it a great experience over all . I had no complaints other than the hard beds ahaha

Listen, for the area and the entire vibe of the city.. Aquarius is what you'd expect. The main areas were *mostly* clean, there's a cigarette smell that comes with casinos, and the room itself is nothing fancy. The slots were fun and mostly new machines. The restaurants were always clean and bustling. The gift shop had a small collection of the typical things. Check in was easy, check out was even easier. The elevators get extremely busy in the evenings. Time your check in right at 1-3 to avoid most foot traffic. (Or find the staircases to get avoid the lines!) The pool should have A LOT more shade. It's the desert! There were hardly any umbrellas or other means of escaping the hot sun. Customers are more likely to enjoy the pool and the pool bar if there was more shade! They do provide pool towels, which was handy. We were wishing the adult swim time was earlier than 9pm, and maybe a larger space for the number of people.

In my last update.. they sprayed the room with a chemical to mask the smoke smell. However upon returning back home both myself and fiancé became extremely ill. I had a respiratory infection turned into pneumonia went urgent care was given a shot and antibiotics. Same for my fiancé. Never returning again!!!

SCAMMER HOTEL BEWARE!!!! they have charged a 588$ smoking fee to someone who specifically needed a non smoking room due to asthma. They said they use "state of the art technology" to detect that smoke was detected at 6am!? They refused to refund and said talk to your CC company. THIS IS HOW THIS HOTEL MAKES ITS MONEY. SCAM! Not to mention the receptionist was super rude and when she tried to over charge us and I told her I knew what she was doing she apologized and came up with some weird excuse about "people not telling her things?" Horrible experience and now we have to try and fight with our CC.

I am normally not a negative reviewer but I definitely have to say something to someone and there was nobody available in management for me to talk to. I have stayed out here several times now I've never had an issue before. This place is just too small for the amount of people they try to pack into it there's not enough food options there's not enough Space for the amount of people the elevators constantly don't work there's always a line to get on them. Today we waited 20 minutes to try to leave and we left an hour before checkout time. The elevators never came so we started walking down the stairs and they had the door locked which is a fire hazard so that we could not get outside so then we had to come back up. We eventually got let out on the third floor by someone through a secret door that went to an escalator this is not great management skills and I definitely feel if you're going to be booking this hotel at full capacity you need to make sure that you have operational elevators and also make sure that your stairs are available in case of an emergency. About the only good thing about this hotel right now is the distance to the river in the views. I hope you are able to fix your issues and upgrade this hotel a little.

Perfect location for us, because we had dinner cruise reservations at the dock right outside. Nice casino with a lot of fun slots and games. Not a lot to choose from in the way of eats, but there are other places nearby. Nice friendly staff. Our room was huge, because we got the Majestic Suite. Beautiful view, with floor to ceiling windows. Even though it was nice with a great view, it had its drawbacks, especially when it came to the older beat up furniture and overall tidyness. Both the TVs were very nice. The dinner table was huge. There was plenty of room for seating. The couch folded out as a bed. It took us a little while to realize there were three different thermostats in our room to control the temperature. The bathroom was nothing special, especially for a suite. It was nice to have two bathrooms, though. We noticed there was no pad of paper or pencil near the phone, so I called the front desk to request both. The guy brought up a pen, but no paper. I asked him for a pad of paper, and he said he would be back while we were out of the room. When we returned, we found four or five pieces of quarter sheet white paper that was hand cut with scissors! Are you kidding me? We got the largest suite in the hotel, and they don't have pads of paper? That was weird to us. Also, there was no safe in the room. They did offer secure safety deposit box services at the front desk. I'm not sure if that was free or not, but we didn't use it. They stocked the refrigerator with bottled water. We had a wet bar with a coffee maker and coffee. Our coffee maker didn't work, so they had to replace it. The room smelled like smoke, even though it was a non-smoking room. Plus, the stairwell at our end of the hallway smelled like poo poo for the first day and a half. Great view of the river! The bed was okay. The pillows weren't the greatest. The casino cashier, even though we tried to be nice to her, didn't seem very friendly at all. Parking was free and rather easy. It did seem to take forever to get out of there though lol

It's the best hotel Casino in Laughlin ! And the pit boss in the Casino at the tables is CJ Jackson. Calm and cool . And later took time to talk with and answer my husbands questions. (Which is many) . He is very good. I hope he stays a long time !

We were really looking forward to a relaxing trip, but our stay at Aquarius turned into a frustrating, uncomfortable experience that got worse with each room we were moved to. We checked in at 2 PM on July 2nd and were placed in a top-floor room (#18054). At 3:00 AM, a monsoon storm caused the ceiling to leak water into our room--we had to pack up and switch rooms in the middle of the night. The next room (#18055) smelled horrible by 11:00 AM. A housekeeping manager acknowledged the issue and said guest services would deodorize it and change the dirty A/C vent filter. That never happened. When we returned around 7 PM, the smell was still there and nothing had been done--so we had to switch rooms again. The third room (#4058) was by far the worst. The smell of weed hit us immediately, and when we checked the bathroom, there was vomit on and around the toilet and leftover food in the fridge. It was filthy--now three rooms in under 24 hours, each with serious issues. The Alvaro Ramirez ID 25751, waived our resort fees and gave us a $25 coffee voucher, but that barely scratches the surface of what we experienced. We've since submitted a complaint to Golden Entertainment corporate, along with photos of the conditions, because what we were offered doesn't reflect the stress, health risks, and disruption we went through. The hotel clearly has a maintenance and cleanliness issue, and the response to those issues was lackluster at best. I rarely write reviews, but I wouldn't stay here again or recommend it to others based on how this was handled.

Review is for casino floor only. We came here for gambling and drinks. The center bar was lively. We listened to live music in the lounge after which was fun.

First time in Laughlin and by the reviews we were not sure what to expect and almost regretted booking here before even getting there. I'm not sure what all the complaints were about. I mean it's not a fancy place by any means but it was perfect for us, beds were comfortable, plenty of hot water and a good shower head. So many times we have booked at places and the shower heads were terrible shooting water in random places... not here. Every employee we encountered was friendly. I would stay here again.

Absolutely TERRIBLE beds and the sheets felt like SANDPAPER! Disgusting feeling and glad I got the rooms free cause F*** spending money on this piece of crap hotel! Never staying here again and the room smelled of cig smoke and super annoying next door neighbors. Only fell asleep when I could get drunk and not think about how hard the bed was (felt like a rock) and the gross sandpaper feeling of the sheets. Glad I only stayed a weekend.

lol Karen mode Disable veteran here lol hate using that card lol Beware of scam from the hotel I'll be honest Decent hotel and the workers are friendly would definitely come back but stay at your own risk getting charged a smoking fee violation about 500 bucks when their sensor went off at 1 am indicating there was smoke I was downstairs watching a band play And no one had access to my room or stood in the room with me Great way to treat a customer and outright disrespectful on how they treat people being able to provide proof on my end and how they could of easily checked on their end They wouldn't budge and once they charge you they won't refund it at all Typical response just call your bank Manager was extremely rude Sorry for the vent lol but beware

We spent some time here playing slots and grabbing some McDonald's. They definitely need more video poker machines. It's great to all the overall here and around to other casinos.

The absolute cringe-worthy waitress work that goes on mid-day, gambling is fun when tipsy/drunk and I seemingly could only get one drink and the other I took from my partner, in 4 hours! How embarrassing, we had to call a lady to get service and she said "I'm not in that area but I'll get her!" How nice she was to do that, but that is not her job to dictate her coworkers when they should be on the floor with her.

I stayed here on election night to party. Pretty cool casino. Do you like slots? They've got lots. All kinds of table games and stuff I've never done before. This casino has a lot to offer. Aquarius is at the perf location along the river walk. You can smoke marijuana back there. The hotel is pretty nice. The room was clean and has good amenities. I was on the 7th floor. You can hear people screaming and crying in hallway, but this can be tuned out with the TV. Everyone in the casino was happy when President Trump won. It was cool.

im from vegas and this was my first time in laughlin. i had no expectations. i booked a 2 night stay in a non-smoking room with a king bed and a river view. the executive assistant told me the security deposit was $50 a night but when checking in person at the desk i was charged $150 ($75 a night) which i personally didn't mind. the outside view from my room was beautiful, but when touching the curtains there were dried brown stains !! GROSS !! the bed itself was not comfortable at all, i could feel the metal springs scratching my back. the tv in the room was small but i didn't mind it. and our sink's water pressure was stronger then the showers. the casino/ hotel itself had restaurants, bars, and fast food which was convenient. overall im glad it's over lmao, i would not recommend staying here.

It was a great room, for the price. I'm not sure it had been properly cleaned before our visit. The carpets in the halls also seemed dirty, as did the walls. The elevators were making strange noises. The pool was nice, unfortunately the bar was closed for the season.

The room is very dated. The refrigerator is noisy, in fact it just got unplugged. Paying extra for a view you have to stand to enjoy because of how they placed the furniture. And once again, I'm paying resort fees for a pool that's closed. So I'm paying $23 for two bottles of water, and to park overnight. Ridiculous. I think I'll go somewhere else next time...

Hotel is old, ran through, and outdated. No proper communication from the hotel staff. Parking staff is not friendly. Not welcoming. Save yourself time and go elsewhere.. Maybe try riverside next door..

The resort is ok. We stayed in the California Tower. The rooms could use updating. Our TV guide when we did try to find something to watch wasn't correct. Thank god we didn't watch tv that much. The restroom itself was big, they could make more room where the toilet was. I kept elbowing the toilet paper holder. I think there should be more fast food options, there was only McDonalds & Subway. Maybe an Ice Cream parlor would be nice.

Disappointing Stay - Security and Cleanliness Issues Our stay at this hotel was a major letdown. One of our family members' rooms was left wide open by housekeeping--for seven hours--and the response from the staff was shockingly dismissive. Instead of addressing the issue with urgency or concern, we were told it was basically our problem, and the only thing they offered was to comp the resort fee (which is laughable considering the state of the property). Upon check-in, we found trash from previous guests in the room, including a random shoe--clear signs that it hadn't been cleaned properly. The rooms smelled of mold, and the wallpaper was literally peeling off the walls. I'm not even sure how they can call this a "resort." To top it off, we had to spend our final night of vacation going through every item in the room to make sure nothing was stolen. Not the ending we hoped for. I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for a safe, clean, or professionally managed stay

They are treating people unfairly and not sure if others have experienced this but we wrongly were charged for a smoking fee claiming our room detected smoke coming from a vape or cigarette... they claimed it detected for 30mins when we were in our room for 15 mins after check in because we were meeting some friends that were already there. I have proof on messages to prove that. So how is it possible that someone was smoking in our room for 30mins if we weren't even in there for that long?? I'm not sure if this is a new scheme for the Aquarius to make more $$ out of people. They definitely lost my business and will never be staying there again. I'm a regular that comes at least twice a year but will now find a new place to enjoy Laughlin!

We've been long time customers of Aquarius, but I refuse to stay at this hotel after my last two experiences in June 2025 & July 2025. They do not REFUND YOUR DEPOSIT without you disputing the deposit with your bank. I checked out of the Aquarius 7/27/25 and still my $300 is not posted back to my bank. They say its my banks fault but this is 100% Aquarius. I have to work with the fraud department to do this, which is absolutely crazy. Additionally, the elevators do not work, we waited in horrible lines to get to our rooms and to the casino floor, sometimes waiting as long as 30+ minutes. One last thing, this casino NEVER pays anything. Not worth the free rooms or free play, they just take your money. I guess they just want to SCAM there customers now. This is such a bummer :(

This place has fucking roaches. No joke. The breakfast at the cove was meh. And Outback steak house was meh.

Stayed here twice in last month. Had a great time both times. The room was clean for what it is. It's not a vegas hotel room but clean, and I will definitely stay here again it will be my spot when I come to Laughlin. All employees from the front desk to the valet and bell desk also the cocktails servers are super friendly and nice. Had a blast and will be back soon! Love the river.

The pool was great outback it was OK. We didn't get to go because it was a three hour line but we did get to go to this other place in the hotel. The pool was great. Would definitely go back here if I went back to Laughlin this was a great experience definitely coming back

Spent last week Wednesday-Friday for my mom's birthday. We had a great time. Remember these are older casinos so the rooms are not very updated. Our room had a great view and a fridge. My only 2 complaints were waiting for the elevator Friday night and not being told that the room key was very sensitive and can't be near any cell phones or metal. I will stay here again. See my pictures

First time in Laughlin for a family vacation and stayed here, NEVER AGAIN. Room service stole some of my things that were in the bathroom. Seriously?! They can't tell me they thought it was trash. It was brand new makeup. You have to go that low to steal makeup? You need it that bad, then Aquarius Resort should be paying their housekeepers more so they're not stealing and they keep tourist coming to their resort. First and last time we are staying there.

This is slightly tricky, I want to give 3.5 stars as it's not completely 3 but for sure not 4 stars. I used to go to Laughlin every summer for years till the last time it was apparent everything was going downhill. The very last time I visited, I stayed at the aquarius. This time around I stayed here again to be near the Rod Stewart concert so naturally I was comparing it against all those years ago. I didn't have high expectations but the area around and out the casino was clean, parking was free, check in was fast (though the front desk workers coulda been a little more friendly). The casino floor felt the biggest and loudest compared to the other casinos I visited but the ventilation wasn't good so the smell of cigarettes was always lingering. The restaurants on site were good, I ate at the outback, the cafe and the pizza place. The pizza place was the best. I had the mountain view room which also had a great view of the river so I loved the view. The room was a good size and honestly, I've been staying at a lot of hotels recently and I really liked their pillows. The bed was comfy too. But for every good there was something off. I found pieces of pretzels around the bed, the coffee pot still had the other attendants coffee pod in it, just little things that told me the rooms weren't very clean. I would say I was ok with the price I paid if it wasn't for the extra resort fees. I'm glad to have gone back to Laughlin but I'm not convinced yet they are ready to really put in effort to get back to the level they were years ago.

This hotel is definitely my go to when I come out to Laughlin if I'm looking for somewhere to go for a very low budget. Definitely has that old school Vegas vibe. No hustle and bustle here. Almost feel like it's a bunch of retirees with low moderation excitement. The rooms are all definitely dated in all of the old hotels here, however, the Aquarius has the newest and most updated rooms available. I also feel like it has less of the "riff-raff" type of vibes and has some pretty good restaurants in it such as the outback, pick up sticks, Subway, and McDonald's. Across the street from the hotel is a pseudo outlet center was very few stores, and on the other side of the hotel is the Colorado river. The views are great here and For a trip with the kids. I feel like it's one of the cleanest and doesn't smell like smoke. The Arizona tower specifically is all non-smoking, which I truly appreciate. I give it three stars because obviously it needs some updating. It needs a little bit of care but overall, this is always might go to when it comes to coming to Laughlin.
