content: I booked this hotel on Orbitz for a weekend away with my boyfriend. Only one block away from Fremont Street, the El Cortez Hotel and Casino is Old Las Vegas for old Las Vegas. I loved the location and the atmosphere and how the rooms bathrooms had geriatric railings. (Okay, so I find that funny.) For the price you could pay for an hour on the Strip, we were able to stay for three nights Downtown. A very short walk from Fremont Street Experience and all the other Downtown Hotels. I would definitely stay here again.
