Cheap, but not worth it

The hotel check in line was Crazy long. The rooms were alright. Clean, nothing special. The floor we stayed on had a very weird smell, made my husband sick. The money I saved to stay at this hotel ended up be sucked up into taxis and transportation. Might as well spend the little extra and stay at a hotel in the middle of the strip.

What went to Vegas came home from Vegas

Circus Circus is one of the oldest hotels on the "Strip" and is a good value. I always have the best luck with my gambling at CC and came home with winnings and purchases on this trip. That is as good as it gets!

Family Oriented Hotel with Convenient Location

I arrived quite late after a delayed flight and there were no more regular rooms of the type I had booked, so the hotel put me in a handicap-accessible room and waived that night's resort fee. I was easily able to switch rooms the next day. There are a variety of dining options available, but in the early morning (before 6:30) the options are severely limited. Also, I was not impressed by the breakfast buffet, which cost over $14 after taxes. However, Circus Circus is located very near several restaurants (a Denny's, a great Korean place, a McDonald's, and more) and is right down the road from the Fashion Mall, which has many restaurants and a food court. Walgreens is nearby, as well. Circus Circus is easy to get to from the 215, which is nice if you need to get off the strip. As for it being a family oriented hotel, it includes a theme park, a toy store, and plenty of kid-friendly dining options, all within the hotel.

There is a fantastic Korean BBQ place across the street and just up the road. The price is a bit steep (~$27.99 for all you can eat), but the food is authentic and the staff are very friendly.

Circus Circus Hotel

Hotel is on the strip; but there is construction going on around the hotel. Treasure Island is 1 Mile to the South. Rooms in the Manar are like a motel. It has nice outdoor swimming pools. Overall not very clean; and they also charge an additional Resort fee of $10 per night for every room

circus circus yuck!

the hotel was nice and clean, but not for us or anyone traveling without children who want to escape children. It is geared to families, which we didn't realize, but there were kids running and screaming in the hallways and slamming doors-it was very noisy!! We also found one restaurant didn't open until 5, another was overpriced, and the buffet was awful. The food at the buffet when we went was luke warm, the eggs butter saturated, not even was the coffee hot!! Then to top it off while we were resting in our room one afternoon, a man opens the door with his key card and walks in. The front desk said that shouldn't have happened and didn't understand how it could. Well, needless to say we were very uncomfortable after that and surely didn't want to leave our room! Most of the staff were pleasant, but we won't go back!!!

Not bad

I would recommend this hotel for families with children because of the rides in there, but I found navigating in the hotel a little complex. You will have to pass through rides and their in house market in order to move in/out. The ambience was not that appealing specially the I didn't liked the Lobby carpet, looked old. Cant categorise it as bad as I did not have any problem in my stay but could have been better.

An ideal spot for the entire family

My very 1st trip to Las Vegas and my stay at this hotel made it memorable. There's something for everyone of any age, all provided under one roof. It catered to the inner child in me. Located on the strip tho a distance from the other destinations yet not at all difficult to get to. I can see myself returning- not solo but with family next time.
