Harrah's Las Vegas Casino & Hotel
Harrah's Vegas runs Buffalo Mega Stampede, Spooky Link, House of Dragons, and Huff N' Triple Puff across an 88,800-square-foot floor that got a $200 million refresh in 2021.
Harrah's Las Vegas runs an unusually shaped casino floor of roughly 88,800 to 90,000 square feet (sources vary slightly) near the center of the Strip, with more than 1,000 slot machines and upward of 80 table games spread across multiple levels connected by ramps and stairs. The building started life as a Holiday Inn in 1972 and has been rebuilt and rebranded twice since. Here's what's actually running on the floor, how the room is laid out, and what to know before you play.
Slot Machines and Video Poker
Caesars' own page for the property lists Buffalo Mega Stampede, Spooky Link, House of Dragons, and Huff N' Triple Puff as current games -- though House of Dragons is treated here as a venue-level name only, without implying a specific cabinet or manufacturer, since more than one product on the market could plausibly share that name. A dedicated slot-machine finder for this specific property lists a far broader inventory, and a real cross-section of it includes Wheel Of Fortune, Zeus, Dancing Drums, China Shores, Buffalo Gold, Cleopatra, Bier Haus, and Lock It Link Huff N Puff -- classics and modern link-family cabinets sitting side by side. A casinos.com destination review adds two more confirmed titles not on either list: Dragon Link and a standalone Buffalo cabinet. Between Caesars' own marketing, the dedicated machine finder, and the review, this reads as one of the more thoroughly documented floors in this batch -- older traditional reel slots mixed with modern video slots, per the review, rather than either style dominating outright. A dedicated High Limit Slots room sits apart from the main floor for players wanting bigger stakes, and reviewers describe it as noticeably quieter than the rest of the casino. That combination of an official four-title lineup, a much larger third-party inventory, and a review adding titles neither source covers is a useful reminder that no single source captures a casino's full floor at any given moment -- machines rotate in and out, and 'currently on the floor' is always closer to a snapshot than a permanent list.
Table Games and the Sports Book
World Casino Directory counts more than 80 table games on the floor, positioned near the cashier cage rather than centered in the room -- a function of the property's unusual, multi-level layout, which scatters gaming across several directions and connects levels with small ramps and stairs instead of one continuous floor. Minimums start at $5 for blackjack and $10 for craps and roulette, on the lower end for a Strip-adjacent property. The Caesars Race & Sports Book sits on the casino floor across from Starbucks, equipped with more than 30 HDTVs for watching games, and a casinos.com review found it has a notably lighter, more user-friendly feel than the main gaming floor -- useful to know if the slot and table area feels too dense and you want a calmer spot to watch a game.
Layout, Decor, and Atmosphere
The floor's defining feature is its shape: reviewers describe it as genuinely unusual, scattering gaming across multiple directions rather than following one obvious path, with table games clustered near the cashier cage and different levels tied together by small ramps and stairs instead of a single flat floor. That layout is a legacy of a building that's been expanded and renovated at least three separate times since 1972, rather than built as one coherent design from the start. Two areas offer a break from the main floor's density: the Caesars Race & Sports Book, described as lighter and more user-friendly than the gaming area around it, and the dedicated High Limit Slots room, which reviewers note runs noticeably quieter than the rest of the casino.
History and Location
The property opened February 1, 1972, as the Holiday Inn Center Strip, a 520-room, 14-story hotel tower; the adjacent Holiday Casino followed on July 2, 1973, with 320 slot machines and 20 table games aimed at middle-class visitors rather than high rollers. A 23-story tower addition in 1982 made it, at the time, the world's largest Holiday Inn, with 991 rooms. The property's best-known design era began in 1990, when a third 35-story tower added 734 more rooms and introduced a 450-foot Mississippi-style riverboat facade with an 80-foot paddlewheel. The casino was rebranded Harrah's Las Vegas in 1992, after Promus Companies ended its Holiday Inn franchise agreement, and a $200 million renovation in 1997 stripped out the riverboat theme entirely in favor of Carnival and Mardi Gras decor, alongside a second 35-story tower addition. In 2017, Caesars sold the underlying land to Vici Properties for $1.14 billion while continuing to operate the resort through a 15-year leaseback agreement -- a structure common across the Caesars portfolio today. The resort now runs 2,542 rooms alongside the casino floor described above, which itself got a further $200 million refresh in 2021, redesigning those rooms and remodeling the gaming floor. That 2021 remodel is the most direct explanation for why the floor today mixes older traditional reel slots with a majority of modern video cabinets -- it's the most recent point at which the property could refresh its gaming inventory wholesale rather than swap machines out piecemeal.
What to Know Before You Play
A few practical notes: the floor's unusual, multi-level layout means it's worth a slower first walkthrough than you'd expect from a Strip casino this size, since gaming scatters in several directions rather than following one obvious loop. Table minimums are relatively approachable here -- $5 blackjack and $10 craps and roulette -- if you're looking for lower-stakes play near the center of the Strip. If the main floor feels too dense, both the sports book and the High Limit Slots room are described as calmer alternatives. And if you're trying to decide whether a specific machine or table is worth your time before sitting down, photographing it and asking 6-lab's Advisor is faster than guessing.
