The Flamingo wants to welcome every member of your family- even your dogs. Bring up to two pups along on your trip, and stay in an exclusive PetStay room. There is a fee per day for your puppers to attend. Ironically, dogs are the only pets allowed, which means…no flamingos. This fee is $75 for each day of your stay, plus an additional nightly $100 deposit. This deposit is refundable if no damage is incurred to the hotel room. Dogs must weigh less than fifty pounds and be crated whenever you leave your room. The front desk has kennels if you forgot yours at home, or didn’t want to take it on your plane. The PetStay rooms, indicated by that name at booking, are simply rooms like the Studio or Fab Room, but with extra amenities. Your dogs will have food and water dishes, mats, waste bags, and dog treats to enjoy. Be sure to adhere to all the policies and ensure that your furry family member has the best stay without causing any damage or additional fines. If you follow them all, you'll be sure to create memories for your four legged friends to last a lifetime.

The Flamingo can be considered a kid friendly hotel for one major reason: bunk beds. There are a number of rooms to choose from that offer bunk beds here, including the Flamingo Room and the Flamingo Bunk Bed Suite. The hotel itself has 15 freshly renovated rooms with bunk beds, one of which is a suite. Flamingo's bunk bed rooms come complete with two queen size beds along with options for either one or two bunk beds to be lofted above. It not only suits children but large groups, as a a bachelor or bachelorette party of six people can sleep comfortably at this hotel without putting someone in the bathtub. In the Flamingo Room, you will have two queen beds with interesting structures. The posts coming from each corner actually rise up and support one overhead bunk bed. The Flamingo Bunk Bed Suite has the same, but with much more space. This room also has two big couches, where kids can watch any of the multiple 55-inch TVs found throughout the suite. These specialty rooms go fast, so be sure to book ahead and call for availability.

Even though the Flamingo is one of the most famous Las Vegas hotels, it is also one of the most cost-effective. There are rooms here for any budget, whether you’re hoping to spend around $100 a night for something standard, or a higher price for the most luxurious suites.
Nothing about these rooms will leave you wanting more, regardless of budget. Many of the rooms were recently renovated, and have newer furnishings and features to compliment an already low price. The standard accommodations are cozy and intimate, with GO rooms and Flamingo rooms sitting at 350 square feet, respectively. Each mentioned room houses one king bed or two queen beds, which more expansive rooms and suites offer in tandem, allowing you the luxury of choice. Note: smoking rooms may incur higher costs.

When the Flamingo was originally opened by Bugsy Siegel in 1946, there were far fewer lights in this remote desert town. Now, the Flamingo is right in the middle of one of the biggest tourism areas in America.
The Flamingo itself sits just a little back from the Las Vegas Strip. Its restaurants and the Flamingo Wine and Spirits Store actually line the famous street.
However, you can easily access the Strip from your hotel room. Right across the street is Caesar’s Palace and the OMNIA nightclub. To the north is the Linq, and to the south is the Bellagio Fountains and Paris Las Vegas. You really won’t believe you’re staying right in the midst of it all.
Face it, you’re coming to Las Vegas and what better place to be than in the middle of all the action. That’s where this hotel is and for those who choose the Flamingo year after year, location is a big part of it. See the Strip and enjoy all that there is to offer. With the world of Fabulous Las Vegas just outside your door, everything you could want to buy, see, taste and experience is a short walk or drive away.
More Middle of the Strip hotels in Vegas.Flamingo Las Vegas is a Hotel with Rooms
If you are simply looking for the perfect place to rest each night, and plan to spend the majority of your time at the casino, consider booking a room at the Flamingo. Each room is fairly small, yet comfortable, and updated well.
First, consider the Go Room with white and gold features. While small, at only 350 square feet, this is the perfect room for those wishing to travel light. A King or Queen room is an option here as well as your choice of view.
The Fab Room is another option, also with 350 square feet. This room is a bit more heavy on the decorations, with stylish lighting and vintage Las Vegas artwork. Again, choose your bed style and view preference.
The basic Flamingo room is a slight upgrade, with a chaise lounge, rain shower, and modern decor. Choose a High Roller, Garden, or Strip view, and remember to consider a room with bunks. Or, choose the Executive Room, which has the same amenities but with 450 square feet of living space.
A Premium Room is your largest room option, with the same amount of space as the smallest suite. These rooms have cool furniture and a wall of windows to enjoy your view.

When searching for a Las Vegas hotel that allows smoking, it can feel like finding a needle in a haystack. Many hotels with casino floors allow smoking in this area, but not as many allow it in their rooms. Some hotels do have rooms where smoking is allowed, but these rooms are on certain floors and may be few and far between.
The Flamingo however, has many different smoking rooms and suites to choose from. Almost every variety of room has a non-smoking option. If you want to make sure you and your guests have a smoking room, you can peruse all they offer.
What makes The Flamingo stand out for smokers is that some of the rooms which allow smoking are more than just a normal bed and TV spot. The Flamingo Room, with two queen size beds and a view of the Las Vegas Strip, allows smoking. It’s 350 square feet and definitely surprises many tobacco lovers when booking rooms for the first time.
Of course, smoking is limited to the locations they are allowed in. So, for the health of fellow guests and cleanliness of the establishment (and common courtesy), be sure to follow all rules and regulations before you light up.
More Las Vegas hotels which allow smoking.Flamingo Las Vegas has rooms with a view of the Strip
The Flamingo offers a few rooms that have guaranteed views of the Las Vegas Strip. These include the Flamingo Room and the Go Room. Other rooms have dedicated views facing out to the rest of the city, or down to the gardens of the Flamingo. If the view is important to planning your trip, be sure to inquire about the view your room will offer.
Other rooms, and all suites, have views that vary. This means that depending on where your room is in the resort, you may look out over the city, to the gardens, or out to the Strip. To make sure you have the room and view you want, indicate as such when you book.
The view is a beauty though and, for many travelers, the sights they can see from the window of their Flamingo room or suite is worth the price alone. Situated in the center of the Strip, the Flamingo gives guests a chance to take in all the views without ever stepping foot outside their rooms. What you see, however, is dependent on where you are staying so be sure that you ask about your room’s location at the time of booking to ensure that you get the best possible scene during your stay.

The History of the Flamingo Hotel
The proud Flamingo Las Vegas Hotel and Casino is the oldest Las Vegas Boulevard resort in full operation. Construction began in 1945 and, after the original builder ran into some financial trouble, the notorious Bugsy Siegel opened the doors the day after Christmas 1946. You’ll see many references to the mobster throughout the hotel, like Bugsy’s Bar. Credit to one of Bugsy’s associates, Meyer Lansky, can also be seen.
The name “Flamingo” has several possible origins. The original builder of the property, Billy Wilkerson, whom Bugsy had acquired it from, is reported to have named it during the planning stages. However, there are rumors it was named after Bugsy’s then-girlfriend, Virginia Hill. It was her long, skinny legs that earned her the nickname. He also had an interest in a race track where flamingos were often seen nearby. He viewed them as a good omen when placing his bets.
The most recent renovations to the property were completed in 2018 and brought the Flamingo into the modern age, while paying homage to its past. Pink and gold create a retro-chic vibe that appeals to both young and old guests alike. It is one of the most family-friendly establishments on the Strip.
With a long and storied past, several different owners, and many separate buildings that have been torn down or newly constructed, one thing hasn’t changed. The Flamingo has quite a legacy and we hope that it remains as the longest-running Las Vegas Strip hotel to date.
The Resort
Rooms
You have the option of the Fab Room or the GO Room if choosing a traditional hotel room at the Flamingo. While the Fab Room has everything you need, such as being quite comfortable and tastefully decorated, the GO Room has just a bit more. You’ll find more modern touches like electronic window coverings and an upgraded bathroom.
Executive Rooms
These rooms are designed to include everything that the traveling professional needs when away from home. You also have the choice of a Fab or GO Executive Room so you can decide just what room amenities you need when booking.
Studios
Flamingo Studios are similar to their counterpart rooms but offer much more space. They are perfect for families or small groups traveling together who share a reservation. Being able to spread out a little and comfortably unpack makes the Studios a popular option.

Suites
As with any Las Vegas Strip hotel, the Flamingo has quite a few suites from which to choose. The GO Mini Suite is just that. Designed for solo travelers or couples, you get the upgrades of a suite without more space than you need. The Cosmopolitan Suite is a perfect blend of amenities and value. If you’re a true high roller or coming to Las Vegas to party, the Metropolitan Suite might be the way to go, and don’t forget the upgrades that come alongside Executive suites.
Strip and High Roller Views
Most of the Flamingo rooms and suites are available with a view of either the Strip or the High Roller observation wheel. Those bookings may also have some other upgrades compared to the rooms with the same.
Visit The LINQ High Roller and try to spot your Flamingo hotel room from that vantage point.
Weddings
Many Las Vegas wedding venues cater to much larger events, capable of seating dozens or hundreds of guests. However, the Flamingo offers five on-site locations for a wedding ceremony, some perfect for up to just 15 people. This makes for a more intimate experience.
Both indoor and outdoor locations are available for a wedding ceremony. Event planning and wedding packages are available starting at triple-digit prices, making it one of the most affordable and unique Las Vegas wedding venues.
Banquet Halls
Banquet halls at the Flamingo are specifically designed for dinner events or other catered gatherings. Spaces are customizable based on need, and catering services are also available. Restaurants can seat small, medium, or large groups with reservations. Complete restaurant buy-out arrangements can be made in advance.

The Eldorado Ballroom is the smaller of the two, at 7,552 square feet, with configurable layouts to match your needs. Meeting spaces are nearby if needed. The much larger Sunset Ballroom features 22-foot-high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Strip. It’s sure to make an impression on your guests.
Meeting and Convention Space
The Red Rock Rooms are fully customizable for large and small events, with the on-site business center close by for any last-minute preparations. The maximum guest capacity is 1,200 people, but rooms can accommodate as few as four.
Pools
The Flamingo Las Vegas hotel casino has two pool options for guests. The Beach Club Pool for swimmers of all ages or the Dayclub for adults only are both met with great reviews.
Beach Club Day Pool
The Beach Club Pool is family-friendly, with waterfalls and even a slide. Lounge chairs are always available, as are daybeds and cabanas by reservation. Cabanas enjoy a ceiling fan, lounge chairs and TVs, as well as a dedicated server and host.
GO Pool

Flamingo Showroom
The Flamingo Showroom is a classic. The tables and booths up front give you that vintage-Vegas vibe for a live show experience that’s as intimate as it is entertaining. The seating arrangements may change based on the show, but it’s a relatively small venue, especially considering its counterparts at other hotels in the middle of the Las Vegas Strip. There’s not a bad seat in the house.
Parking
Self-parking at the hotel is free for the first hour for guests or the first three hours for local residents with a Nevada ID. Daily rates may be higher if there is an event. Valet parking is available at varying rates for weekdays and weekends. Both self-parking and valet are complimentary for Caesars Rewards members with Platinum status or higher.
Several sister properties share the parking garage. Spots may be designated for valet parking or Hertz car rentals. When parking in the garage, be sure you are parking in a self-parking space.
Transportation
The Flamingo offers quite a few transportation options for guests, making it easy to get around. Rideshares like Uber and Lyft have a designated pickup drop-off point at the South Entrance, near the Promenade and front desk. The McCarran International Airport and tour shuttles pick up near the East Entrance by the monorail walkway. It’s the entrance closest to the Gardens. You’ll also find the self-parking garage at this entrance with access to the Hertz rental cars.
Las Vegas Monorail
The elevated monorail walkway near the Gardens will take you to the Flamingo & Caesars Palace Monorail Station. The Monorail has several stops along the East side of Las Vegas Boulevard, connecting many of the Strip hotel casinos. You can grab a one-ride pass, but we recommend a one-day, five-day or seven-day pass if you plan on using it often.
Notables
Flamingo Wildlife Habitat
The Wildlife Habitat in the Gardens at the Flamingo is a beautiful respite from the heat of the Vegas desert. Walk the sidewalks and over the streams filled with fish to take pictures by the waterfalls. It’s the flamingos and exotic birds that steal the show.

How to Earn Caesars Rewards at Flamingo Las Vegas
Caesars offers two types of rewards. Tier Credit determines your player status at the resort: Gold, Platinum, Diamond or Seven Stars. Reward Credit determines how many points you have to spend at the Flamingo Las Vegas or other Caesars properties.
Earn When you Book Your Room
For every Tier Credit earned you receive one Reward Credit. Tier Credits have no dollar value and each Reward Credit equals one cent. That means you would have to accumulate 100 Reward Credits to earn $1. Hotel guests receive one Tier Credit and one Reward Credit for every $1 spent on rooms and resort fees. Reservations must be booked on the hotel’s website.
Collect Rewards While Drinking, Dining and Enjoying Shows
Earn one Tier and one Reward Credit for every $1 spent at participating Flamingo restaurants. Accumulate credits at most bars on the property and when you buy tickets to a show. Popular at the Flamingo in 2022 are Piff the Magic Dragon, RuPaul and Wayne Newton.
Shop and Earn
Does your dream vacation involve spending money outside the casino? Earn Tier and Reward Credit at Flamingo when you buy anything from souvenirs and spirits to a whole new wardrobe. Earn and spend rewards at shops including Flamingo Wine & Spirits, the Promenade Gift Shop and the Margaritaville Retail Store. Earn one of each credit for every dollar spent.Relax and Earn
One pool has a waterfall and slide, the other is a wild dayclub. Spend the day by the water and watch those points multiply. Earn one of each type of credit for every $1 spent on sundries, drinks and other purchases at the resort’s 15-acre Caribbean-style pool, which is closed for the season. Guests can also use the fitness center, escape to the wildlife habitat and earn rewards while unwinding at the Spa at Flamingo.Comps and Promotions
Accumulate Comps on Gambling Machines
Players earn one Reward Credit and one Tier Credit for every $5 put through a slot machine at this Las Vegas hotel and casino. Put $500 through a slot machine and earn 100 credits, worth $1. For every $10 played on a video poker machine, players earn one Reward Credit and one Tier Credit. It takes longer to earn credits at video poker because the payout ratio is higher. Some machines are worth less, but those are clearly marked, according to the casino.
How Comps are Calculated
In the long run, the house keeps a piece of every dollar a gambler puts at risk in a casino. That’s why employees at Las Vegas casinos are happy to offer rewards to loyal gamblers. Comps are based on the average dollar amount a player is expected to lose each day, known as average daily theoretical, or ADT. It’s the way a casino calculates what a player is worth to them. Slot machines are the most profitable way to raise your ADT.
To calculate your ADT, the pit boss observes your play. He records how much you cashed in and out for, how long you stayed at the table and how much you bet. Typically, an average bet of $25 a hand is required to have your play rated at a Las Vegas Strip hotel casino. One way in which ADT is determined is by the expected loss of the game, multiplied by how long you play multiplied by the size of your wager. In the end, the casino comes up with a dollar figure representing how much it expects you to lose each day, and comps you around 20 to 30% of that amount.
How to get More Comps
Remember to put your player’s card in the machine or hand it to the dealer, but not every time you’re in the casino. When you don’t plan to gamble long or invest much money, leave your card in your wallet. Here’s why: put $500 into play over five hours on Saturday, then blow off $50 before your flight on Sunday and you’ll ruin your good rating. Go ahead and play on Sunday, just don’t use your player’s card.
It may not be what you had planned, but you’ll earn the most comps by depleting your entire gambling budget in one day at the same casino. Gambling $600 during the same day will earn you a much higher rating and more free stuff than betting $200 in chips each day for three days.
Back-End Comps
Hotel and casino guests who gamble a lot can request comps, and sometimes they will be granted. Charge everything to your room and before checkout, go to the rewards desk and ask to speak to a casino host. Ask them to review your play and see if he can remove any of your charges.
Use a Casino Host
Think of your casino host as a concierge at a hotel. A host will remember the things that you like and get you good comps. Big betters are often pursued by casino hosts. If that hasn’t happened, a player can ask the rewards desk to check his play to see if he qualifies for one.Line of Credit
Most large casinos, including the Flamingo, allow players to apply for a line of credit. This gives a player the freedom to gamble without carrying cash or being burdened by the constraints of daily ATM limits and fees. The minimum amount that can be requested is $1000. The application is on the resort’s website. If approved, the casino gives you a marker that can be traded to the dealer for chips. Typically, a player has 30 days to pay off a marker, but the casino prefers you settle up before check-out. Learn More About Gambling On The Strip »More Games and Rewards

Games at Flamingo Casino
Slots
Ready to put some miles on your Rewards Card? The casino floor at the Flamingo is packed with more than 1,600 slot and video poker machines. Play your favorites including Blazing 7’s, Wheel of Fortune and Buffalo Gold. This could be your time to play for a progressive, so bet the maximum if that’s your goal. The casino has both traditional reel machines and video slots.
Video Poker
Start with five cards on a video screen like the one below. Press the hold button under each card you want to keep and spin the reels to replace the rest. There is only one correct way to play any hand in video poker. Learn all the right moves by studying strategy charts you can find online and in casino gift shops. Practice at home with one of the many software programs available, then consult the charts while you play.
Blackjack
The Flamingo casino has four blackjack tables, including two 2 deck games and two 6 deck games. The $100 minimum 2D offers 3:2 odds and dealer hits on 17. The $25 2D offers 6:5 odds, dealer hits on 17 and players can re-split aces. The $15 6D offers 6:5 odds, dealer hits on 17, players can double after a split, re-split aces and split to three hands. Look for a game that pays 3:2.
Once you’ve been dealt two cards, you can hit, or take another card, then hit again if you like. A second choice is to stand, or do nothing. Doubling is another option, which means putting out another bet and taking one more card. Pairs are sometimes split, which requires a second bet and another card for each of your two cards. Hitting is allowed after a split unless you have aces.
Finally, the table allows you to surrender, and give up your hand in exchange for half of your bet back. Basic strategy says to surrender 16 when a dealer’s up card is nine – ace because 16 is the worst starting hand in blackjack.
Roulette
Almost all of us have a lucky number, and when you place a chip on it and win, it’s called a straight bet. It’s a long shot, but it has the highest payout ratio at the table, 35:1. That means if you bet $5, you’ll get your $5 dollars back plus an additional $175.
Place a chip at the beginning of a row of three numbers on the felt. When one of your numbers comes up, the payoff is 11:1. Place a chip in the upper left corner of the number one box and this is known as the 5-number bet. It covers the numbers one, two, three, zero and double zero. The bet pays 6:1 and the odds favor the casino more than any other bet on the double zero wheel.
The casino inside the Flamingo Las Vegas has three double zero roulette wheels and three triple zero wheels. Limits are $10 to $200, but you can only find a $10 table during the off hours.
Craps
Look at a craps table and it’s clear the players are having the best time in the casino. They start off betting the Pass or Don’t Pass Line and take turns rolling the dice. Land on seven or 11 and it’s called a natural. Pass Line betters win. Everyone loses except the Don’t Pass better when a two, three or 12 appears. Hit a four, five, six, eight, nine or 10 and that becomes your point. To win the bet, roll your point again before rolling a seven.
Flamingo Las Vegas has three craps tables with $10 to $5000 limits, but only expect to see $10 tables during the graveyard shift. The first crap roll on the strip happened at the Flamingo.
Baccarat
Baccarat is the simplest game in the casino because the player needs no prior knowledge in order to succeed. The player only has to bet on who will have the best hand: himself, the banker or will it be a tie? The object of the game is to come closest to making a nine. If either draws an eight or nine, he wins. If the totals are both nine or eight, it’s a tie. Any other number and the dealer consults the rule book. A bet on the banker gives the best odds.
The Flamingo has one baccarat table where a $10 or $25 game can sometimes be found, but usually limits are $100 to $5000. Looking to learn more? Caesars Entertainment produced a baccarat instructional video expanding on how to play this classic casino game.
Pai Gow Poker
Pai Gow differs partially from conventional poker because the player places a bet before seeing his cards. He has to make two hands, one with two cards and one with five. The five card hand has to out rank the two card hand which can only be high cards or a pair. Beat both of the banker’s hands to win at Pai Gow Poker.
A Pai Gow deck has 53 cards, including a joker, that can substitute as an ace or complete a straight or flush. The hand rankings are the same as in hold’em with two exceptions. A wheel, or ace – five straight, is the lowest straight in traditional poker, but in Pai Gow, it’s the second highest, only behind 10 – ace. Plus five of a kind only exists in In Pai Gow. It’s comprised of four aces and a joker and replaces a royal flush as the highest ranking hand in the game.
Let it Ride Poker
Only the player’s cards matter in Let it Ride. He’s not competing with the dealer or the other players at the table. To begin the game, players place three equal bets and then each one is dealt three cards. Face down on the felt are two community cards which can be used by any player to improve the strength of his hand.
Once you see your hand, tuck your cards under your first bet if you like what you’ve been dealt, and Let it Ride. Not thrilled with your cards? Scratch them on the table to signal the dealer that you want to Pull Back your first bet. The first community card is revealed and the player can Let it Ride or Pull Back his second bet, but the third bet remains on the table. After the dealer shows the second community card, he turns over all the player’s hands and identifies winners. Payouts are based on poker hand rankings, from even money for a pair of 10’s or better to 1000:1 for a Royal Flush.
Three Card Poker
Unlike any poker game you’ve played before, complete a straight or flush with three cards, not five in Three Card Poker. Also different when playing this poker variant, three of a kind beats a straight, and a straight beats a flush.
Initiate play by betting the ante, or the bottom triangle on the table. You and the dealer each get three cards. Look at yours, and if you want to continue, put an equal bet on the play, or the circle below the triangle, and place your cards face down under your chips.
Want to fold? Put your cards face down in front of your first wager. Don’t be too quick to let go of your cards because you only have to beat the dealer, so Q-6-4 or better is too good to fold. When the dealer reveals his cards, if he doesn’t have Queen high or better, the player wins his ante bet only. At showdown, whoever has the better hand wins, and the player is paid even money.
Pair Plus is a side bet that the player will draw a pair or better. The house advantage on this bet is a hefty %7.29. Pair Plus pays even money for a pair up to 40:1 for a straight flush. A Six Card Bonus is a side bet that looks at the best five card hand you make using all your cards and the dealers. It takes three of a kind or higher to win.
Sportsbook
Bet on football, basketball, baseball, hockey and more at Caesars Race and Sportsbook at Flamingo. Make a wager on your favorite college or pro teams, or pick a pony at the races. The Sportsbook has lounge chairs and large video screens where you can watch the game live or catch the highlights.
High-Limit Gaming
High rollers looking for a private place to play choose to gamble here. The High-Limit Gaming room at the Flamingo Las Vegas has two, 2-deck blackjack tables with $5000 limits and a shoe table with a $10,000 limit. Raise your bets at two baccarat tables with $15,000 limits.
