"Centrally located and classically Vegas, the Horseshoe’s lobby bar features leather stools, low tables, and cozy booths. A self-playing piano provides the soundtrack while you sip on a French 75, Aperol spritz, or the smoky-meets-sweet Smoke on the Water, made with Dos Hombres mezcal, triple sec, agave nectar, lime, and sweet-and-sour mix." - Jennifer Smith
"I noted that the Horseshoe Las Vegas property has experienced recent shake-ups: a restaurant by television star Martin Yan closed in August just five months after opening, and nearby concepts at the Grand Bazaar Shops, such as Bourbon St. Parade, have also turned over quickly." - Janna Karel
"Employees here are among those covered by a tentative five‑year contract that secures higher wages, improved health care and pensions, and specific safeguards around AI/robotics—requiring advance notice to the union, training, and compensation for displaced workers—plus a commitment to daily room cleanings, pending a ratification vote." - Janna Karel
"Thousands of Culinary Workers Union Local 226 members staged picket lines on the sidewalk in front of this property on Las Vegas Boulevard as part of ongoing contract negotiations with the city’s largest casino employers. Clad in red T‑shirts and starting at 10 a.m., workers hoisted signs and chanted to pressure for a new five‑year contract featuring pay increases, reduced housekeeping workloads, expanded safety measures, improved health care, and job‑security protections in the event of another pandemic or economic crisis. The demonstrations—part of an action that authorized a potential strike impacting up to 22 resorts—did not constitute a full strike but signaled that bartenders, cooks, servers, guest room attendants, porters, bellmen, laundry, and kitchen workers could walk off the job at any time. The union, which represents 60,000 workers statewide (53,000 in Las Vegas) and has roughly 40,000 members working under an expired contract, urged the public and officials not to cross active picket lines. The protests come as the city prepares for a busy fall and winter season, including the upcoming Formula 1 Grand Prix, holidays, New Year’s Eve and the Super Bowl, increasing the potential impact of any labor action." - Janna Karel
"Nearly a year after first announcing plans to change its name, Bally’s Las Vegas becomes the Horseshoe Las Vegas today. The rebrand includes a multi-million dollar renovation of the old Bally’s space, including new interiors and exteriors as the Strip hotel and casino becomes Caesars’ 10th Horseshoe-branded property." - Janna Karel
