The Christmas season may be the most wonderful time of the year, but it will also the time for the Golden Gate Casino on Fremont Street to shut down for a week. The down town landmark will temporarily shut down this month for renovations before welcoming guests again just in time for the holidays.
Golden Gate Casino has announced the closure will run from December 18th through the 22nd in order to replace some carpeting. Not only that, but the resorts website seems to indicate that there is “No room at the Inn” (so to speak) from the 17th of this month all the way until the 27th.
However, when they do reopen they will be celebrating with what’s being called an “open bar bash” from 6 to 8pm on December 23rd, as well as their annual Santa’s Helper contest. The property is owned by Circa Hospitality Group, which also runs Circa and The D.
At over 115 years old, the Golden Gate Casino is easily the oldest casino on Fremont Street and all of downtown Las Vegas. So, perhaps it was time to change the carpeting. Let’s just hope they don’t find the remains of Jimmy Hoffa under the rugs.
