Circa Resort & Casino, Las Vegas
Circa Resort & Casino is a game-changer for downtown Las Vegas, marking the first ground-up casino resort built in the area since 1980. Opened in 2020 by brothers Derek and Greg Stevens, the property occupies the historic site of the old Las Vegas Club and Mermaids Casino. It stands out as an adults-only destination, blending modern luxury with a nostalgic nod to the city’s past.
The resort is packed with record-breaking features, most notably its three-story, stadium-style sportsbook—the largest in the world—which boasts a massive 78-million-pixel screen. You’ll also find the “Mega Bar,” stretching 165 feet, and an impressive rooftop pool amphitheater called Stadium Swim. A charming touch of history greets you in the lobby: the restored “Vegas Vickie,” the famous neon-kicking cowgirl sign that once illuminated Glitter Gulch.
Design-wise, the hotel is highly technical and efficient. It features the tallest escalator in Las Vegas, which transports guests up to the pool deck, and an advanced HVAC system that vents air through the floor to keep the casino air remarkably fresh. Even the parking garage, affectionately nicknamed the “Garage Mahal,” was engineered with ride-sharing and convenience in mind.
Located right on the vibrant Fremont Street Experience, the hotel puts you in the center of the action. You are steps away from the iconic SlotZilla zipline, classic casinos, and a variety of street entertainment. It’s the perfect home base for experiencing the gritty, neon-soaked history of old-school Vegas while enjoying some of the most cutting-edge amenities in the desert.
Expert reviews
“A modern, 21-plus playground that mashes up vintage downtown neon and hospitality with some of the most massive sports-watching infrastructure you’ll find anywhere.”
“This new resort stands out among the Fremont Street legacy hotels with its intelligently integrated, high-end design and heralds a new level of luxury in Downtown Las Vegas. The scale, vision and comprehensive amenities are nothing but impressive, and it marks a dramatic sea change in hospitality standards for the neighborhood.”

Fun birthday party celebration for my son and daughter!
Access to freemont, variety of games and bars. Nicely decorated and well maintained.
The limitations at the pool. No one tells you the rules until you are up there and then you get turned away, multiple times. Really ruined our vibe.

Enjoyed our stay and would return if headed back to Vegas
The rooms were very spacious and they layout was nice. Felt very roomy and modern. Bed & pillows were comfortable.
There is almost no shade available at the pool - and costs for cabanas is too much to justify for a few hours.

The cleanest, best smelling hotel (lol) in Vegas with Amazing staff and life changing pool
SO CLEAN, great staff , amazing housekeeping
Pool was excellent. I have no complaints about anything! So accommodating.
We walked in other hotels in the area since we had family staying in the area and there was no other hotel that compared to circa. We came for our wedding - our guests who didn’t book here REGRETTED IT.
Everything was sooooo pricey - if wanting to rent anything at pool spending limit was high. Bummer you can’t bring water to pool .
More activities/ games by the pool would have been great as well as shade options

Beautiful casino and amazing sports book but not smoke sensitive friendly
Very nice rooms, great location, excellent sports book
Air quality was poor. We visited many neighboring casinos downtown and strip and the smoke was worst of all.

It was ok
The bed was super comfortable lots of shower pressure and the extra security to enter the property
Check in was not very nice I didn’t get the circa swim view room even though the request was months in advance I had an expressway view and the room was smaller than videos

My day was restful, fun, exciting and I can’t wait to come back to circa.
I liked everything about my stay but especially I love the pool and the staff and the access to Fremont Street. It was so amazing.
I do wish that there were more options to easily upgrade your room without any crazy fees, but that is a small issue that I have everything else was amazing

Book, stay and enjoy!
We loved everything about this 21+ property.
This property is located basically at the Fremont Experience and you will hear loud music all night.

Perfect location, good price, good vibe environment
Location is perfect, across the Fremont where there is free concerts and bars. The room is very clean, comfortable pillows. Wishing there is a tub in the bathroom, toothbrush/toothpaste. Love the rooftop overlooking the whole Vegas especially at night time, best party vibes, good music, bar.
Nothing serious, wishing they have more restaurants in the hotel, balcony options in rooms, poker rooms which my husband was looking for. He has to go to other hotels to play poker which i am not happy about.

Great location, beautiful rooms, very clean rooms and facility, fun casino, impressive stadium swimming pools, high pric
Beautiful hotel and casino. Rooms were very clean and had beautiful decor. Stadium swim was very impressive. Great location right on Fremont!
The rooms are costly. Before entering stadium swim, they have a checkpoint and remove any items that are not permitted. The staff doesn’t tell you about providing lockers for items not permitted, they just take your stuff and you can’t get it back when requesting to after you leave. Once you try and request your things back, they then tell you that you could have gotten a locker for your things.
