When Las Vegas was just a railroad town 117 years ago, Stevens said that Golden Gate really put the city on the map.
“You made a pit stop in Vegas. You got off the train and ran. In one of the ten rooms, I jumped. After a restful night’s sleep, you take a shower and board the train to end your journey. But that’s exactly how Vegas got its start a long time ago,” he stated. It’s remarkable how it has affected not only Las Vegas history but also American history.”
One of the original ten rooms is available for your stay.
Additionally, there are antique slot machines and an original telephone model in the lobby.
