Universal remote, much?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nThe TV fountain is made all the more dramatic by 468 mirrors lining a arced wall that frames the decorative piece. Yes, we asked. And, yes, we know we have issues.<\/p>\n
The tower of televisions sits just inside a brand new entrance to the Golden Gate.<\/p>\n
The Golden Gate’s expansion includes a new loyalty club desk.<\/p>\nThe loyalty desk was previously tucked away near the hotel’s registration desk. Now, it’s front and center. By the way, 1906 is the year the hotel opened, originally as Hotel Nevada. Technically, the Miller Hotel. Long story.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nThe previous loyalty club desk has vanished through some kind of Las Vegas magic.<\/p>\n“Las Vegas magic” is, technically, redundant.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nGolden Gate’s interior design was done by Dez Motif, the architecture by Moser Architecture Studio.<\/p>\n
The Golden Gate took the opportunity during its expansion to entirely replace and upgrade its sound system throughout the existing casino.<\/p>\n
A good deal of the expansion won’t be readily visible to guests. On the casino’s second floor, a new beer distribution room is a sight to behold.<\/p>\nGolden Gate’s new beer chilling room distributes suds to the casino’s Prohibition Bar, as well as the casino’s outdoor bars, now with the help of gravity.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nStill in the works is an upgraded outdoor bar, One Bar. When completed, the bar will be 20 feet longer. Translation: More slushy drinks for us.<\/p>\nYou can never have too much bar. It’s Vegas.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nWhile the new casino area at Golden Gate made its debut on Aug. 25, 2017, the expansion’s official opening takes place Sep. 1, 2017, with the requisite hoopla.<\/p>\n
Golden Gate has done a great job of creating a new space that feels modern (so many TVs), but which stays true to its old-school roots (dark wood and marble).<\/p>\n
When you check it out, let us know what you think. We’ll be at the end of Prohibition Bar, not noticing the dancing dealers. At all.<\/p>\n
