About Bally’s Las Vegas

Located at 3645 South Las Vegas Boulevard is Bally’s Las Vegas Hotel and Casino. Currently operated and owned by Caesars Entertainment Corporation. Choose from one of the more than 2,800 rooms, many renovated in 2018. Majority of the spacious rooms and suites are in the Resort Tower and the remaining rooms are in the Jubilee Tower that was built in 1981. Complete with a floor of shops and boutiques below the gaming level, there is also a monorail station at the rear of the complex. Bally’s Las Vegas is linked by a bridge to a sister property, Paris Las Vegas.

The site was originally the Three Coins Motel in 1963 and then became the Bonanza Hotel and Casino in 1967. By 1973 it was the MGM Grand and was a bigger building than the Empire State Building. Dean Martin was a long time entertainer and his TV show Dean Martin Roasts was filmed here. A new standard in luxury and size when it was built, it had a big impact on what was to follow.
