JW Marriott near Summerlin

[cgm93]

My firm just signed us up for a corp. rate out there so I'm "supposed" to stay there every time I go to vegas now...its a nice enough place, but a LONG way from the strip rooms...I've heard there are two casino's very close (one attached but not "part" of the Marriott" and one about a half mile away...I know the one attached does not have a poker room and I don't know the name of the other...does anyone know the name of this place, and whether it has a room? Thanks...

Rampart Casino. Attached to J.W.


Poker room closed in December 2001 (It was called the Regent then).


Real close by (in a car) is the Suncoast. They have a poker room but they struggle to keep games going at times.


A few miles on down the road is Red Rock. A very popular poker room.


Best Wishes

How was the hotel? Looks nice enough when I've drove by but I'm always curious to hear from someone who's stayed...

its pretty nice..was there for work also. Just a tease - being 20mnts from the strip.

Yup. I "forgot" about the firm policy last time and stayed at the Bellagio...the rate at the Bell was actually better so I didn't catch any heat...this time the JW is cheaper...I've got a car...so if I don't have to work too late I'll likely make the drive in at least one night.

Its actually quite fast if you take the highway - Take Summerlin Parkway east to 95, 95 to the 15 South. Get off when you see your favorite casino in the skyline. 10 mins at most without traffic going 60mph.
