Club-level accomodations at the Nugget include additional goodies such as no resort fee, wifi included, water and coffee included, spa access, and a few other things. And they are typically in the top couple of floors of the Gold, Spa, and Rush towers.
This two-room suite was on the third floor of the Gold tower. So I think it was a quick substitution - I checked in very late on a Saturday night, and I think I got a bit more suite for my money than I booked - but not on one of the club floors.
The suite is at the end of the hall, and consists of two normal sized hotel rooms joined together. In fact, it sports the both of the original doors, side by side, perfect for Benny Hill style hallway antics.
The left room contains the bedroom, a powder room and closet, and a full bathroom with jetted tub. The right room contains the living room with sectional sofa, dining set, storage, wetbar with fridge, and a second bathroom with shower.
Let's take a look around, shall we?
The furnishings, carpets, drapes, and other adornments are primarily gold. And brown. Gold and brown. Brown and gold. You'd better like brown and gold if you are staying in this suite.

The king bed was comfortable, and anti Fremont Street Experience earplugs are thoughtfully provided. |

The Fremont Street Experience is just outside the windows, which were very well soundproofed. |

An endless supply of coffee makers and water, if you angle it right. |
Overall, the suite has the feeling that it is fairly nice, with lots of mirrors, touches of marble, tile and so on - and yet there is the sense that its soul is missing. All the needed 'suite things' seem to have been put in without much thought or style, leaving it just a little cold.
Perhaps its because there are only two windows, and they are quite small. And they look invitingly onto the rooftop HVAC equipment. If this suite were on the 15th floor, with floor to ceiling views, it would certainly have some oomph.
It certainly was very comfortable to have all that room, a huge step up from a standard Carson tower or Gold tower room for sure. But there are better, newer suites at the Nugget for sure, in the Rush tower.
I fell asleep soundlessly - wondering where the third foam earplug should go. |
