If you love the Fremont Street Experience like I do, then one great way to stay in the heart of it is to book your room at 202 Fremont nascar ticket packages las vegas Street The Four Queens. The Four Queens offers small (by Vegas standards) clean, comfortable rooms with all the expected amenities for a very reasonable price, right in the heart of Fremont. The casino has a classy old-school vibe, yet still contains some of the newer games. There are plenty of good paytables for video poker enthusiasts. You get Hugo s for upscale, romantic (ladies receive a rose) basement nascar ticket packages las vegas dining, and Chicago Brewing Company for great pizza and beer.
I stayed on a gambling comp, which are easy to come by. Just give them a little play with a player s card at either Four Queens or Binion s and you re likely to get comped or discounted room offers for the Four Queens. That said, even the going rate to the general public is quite reasonable. nascar ticket packages las vegas Midweek rates are showing for $37/night with your third night free throughout the month of July as of this writing. Some nights on the rate calendar are as low as $29.
My Standard Deluxe room included a comfortable queen bed, flat screen television, coffee maker, electronic safe, hair dryer, iron and ironing board. There were two desks with chairs for work and a clock radio on the nightstand to wake me in the morning. All the basics. The bathroom was adequate with one sink and a tub. The shower head was high enough for a six footer to use without too many contortions. Toiletries were limited to soap, conditioner and shampoo. All were adequate but not fancy.
On this particular trip I decided to go against all the advice I have read online and book a low floor in the North Tower. The common advice is to either request a high floor or the South Tower in order to avoid the noise from Fremont Street keeping you up at night. I figured it s Vegas why would I be trying to sleep before 1am?
So, I will preface this with a word of warning if it is important to you to sleep between the hours of 6pm and 1am, then you should definitely follow conventional wisdom and avoid these rooms. However, if you love the Fremont Street Experience and you plan to be up during the Viva Vision show anyways, then a room like mine on the sixth floor of the North Tower facing Fremont Street affords a pretty amazing experience.
If you re up high like the room I had on the eleventh floor on a previous trip, you look down upon the framing and scaffolding of the Viva Vision screen it s not a pretty nascar ticket packages las vegas sight. nascar ticket packages las vegas Furthermore, the screen nascar ticket packages las vegas actually blocks your view of all the cool casinos on Fremont. You might hear the Viva Vision shows, but they re on the opposite side of the screen, so you see nothing more than a few flashes of light. However, my room on the sixth floor looked right out on Fremont Street. I could see the full length nascar ticket packages las vegas of the screen with very little obstruction, and the music was loud enough to penetrate the window to my room. It was like having a luxury box for the Viva Vision shows!
Another advantage of the North Tower at Four Queens is that these rooms are the closest rooms to Fremont Street of all the hotels. It takes about fifteen steps to reach the sidewalk from the North Tower elevators. So, if you re out having a good time on Fremont and want to make a trip back to your room, it s quick and easy. I find that to be a big advantage staying downtown as I m often popping back up to the room to change camera batteries, grab a drink, or use the bathroom.
So, grab a room at the Four Queens and ask for a low floor in the North Tower. You get a decent clean room with all the amenities you need, a short walk to and from the Experience, box seats (your room) to the Viva Vision shows, all inside a classy old-school nascar ticket packages las vegas casino with good video poker, good restaurants and beer. You get all of this with no Resort Fees and no Fremont Experience Fee . I d call that a win!

Update (11JUL13): The name of the Fremont Experience Fee at the Golden Nugget has been changed. It is now referred to as the Downtown Destination nascar ticket packages las vegas Fee and includes a coupon book for local attractions.
