My First Time in Reno!!

[@TravelRuby]

What hotel should we stay in next?

[@bryanrancho6831]

El dorado at Reno

[@AnotherBrian]

Atlantis

[@inezsitu7291]

So, *we" means no quickie divorce, huh?

[@squidx67]

Peppermill or Atlantis. Would also recommend midtown and places like Death and Taxes.

[@thearcadehawk]

Circus circus… from what I could see it’s better than the Vegas one

[@allen9069]

I love Reno. Just one thing I like to tell first time visitors to Reno is please don't compare it to Las Vegas. There is no comparison. Glad you enjoyed Grand Sierra; it is a very nice property.

[@marcosavina22]

As a Reno resident, I love GSR, especially for their buffet and other amenities. I would like to hopefully see someday you guys review the Atlantis, Peppermill, and the Silver Legacy. Those seem to be some of the popular resorts as well, and maybe hopefully you are able to take the 30 drive from Reno to Lake Tahoe to explore the Resort and Casinos, like the Bally’s resort and Harrahs.

[@emailuser8668]

Are all the buffets reopened in Reno hotels or just some? How's the hospitality industry there, are most locals part of it or have deep pocketed Californians changed the culture?

[@magickingdomwishes2840]

​@@emailuser8668 as of now the only buffets are at Atlantis and GSR.

[@bruceanderson7762]

Remember the Sands in Tahoe...long ago...took a dear friend, who hated gambling...won around 3600$...paid off her car, and bought her some clothes...she looked stunning...50 years later we still text!

[@emailuser8668]

@bruceanderson7762 Sounds like a by gone era when slots where much looser unlike today. Casinos now push PR in the news media every week, especially in Las Vegas tv & newspapers showing a 1 in 10 million chance jackpot winner because they want to trick tourists into thinking they may have a chance.

[@shadowfilm7980]

Reno looks SO different from Vegas. Night and day difference. A lot more quiet. Reserved. Each place has its upside. Your steak looked amazing.

[@cieash]

Being a long time Reno resident, I totally love it here and love Las Vegas as well. GSR is awesome, so are Peppermill, Atlantis, El Dorado, Silver Legacy and the new remodeled J resort. Downtown is currently going through a major transition and large parts of it are a mess. The River, Midtown and anything outdoors are amazing. Thank you for the positive vibes for Reno most of the time when I see reviews about Reno they normally focus how bad downtown is and never go outside it. You channel rocks and you always give great tips.

[@LordHeadcheez]

GSR is one of my favorite resorts! I'm there once a year for a convention and it never disappoints! Also, the drive from Vegas to Reno is absolutely beautiful and I definitely recommend it.

[@JackpotBeauties]

It was an absolute pleasure getting to know you and Mr.Ruby at the IGT Event 🎉 This video came out absolutely amazing!! You both do such a great job 🙌🏽⭐️ Looking forward to dinner at Oscar’s 🍽️ 🥰😚

[@omgoldmangolf]

As a resident of Carson City, it is good to see you in Reno! I would try Peppermill next as it has a long history and ties into the restaurant in Vegas. Near there is a hamburger joint called Beefy's that has the best Tator tots!! If you and/or Mr. Ruby would like to play a round of golf I would love to host y'all and make a video. My wife and I have watched you for years and now my daughter and son in law watch as well. Cheers!

[@lyndaparkerson3005]

Lived and worked in the casinos in Reno 73-82. Loved it there. The mountains seem to surround the entire area. Lots has changed I stick with GSR 2h3n I go back but Peppermill was a great hang out after work for cocktails in the bar or early morning breakfast after the graveyard shift. I hope it still is good. Legacy El Dorado and Circus Circus are all attached via the mezzanine so fun to visit. I would pick Legacy to stay at and check out all 3

[@kevinhunter3412]

Thanks Ruby. I bought a condo next to Silver Legacy, Love it there ! Maybe a vlog there your next time in Reno ? I fly to Vegas often in $9-$14 Spirit !!

[@debbieoniell5661]

Congratulations on 250K!!! You deserve it. Love you.

[@MrJoeybabe25]

I would like to visit Reno. But there don't seem to be too many videos about the experience. So, I hope you'll do more on the city (and other towns outside of Vegas).😀😀

[@moo00se]

My first time in Reno was last month. Best way I was able to descibe it to my friends and family was ... RANDOM. It grew on me after 48 hours but a random city!

[@BigKrueg]

Yes! More Reno please! Lots to show and tell about that town. Should to Atlantis and the buffet tucan charlies.. peppermill as well.. check em all out.

[@ucdmark]

Thanks for showing a little Reno. Our favorite is the Peppermill. Awesome pool, cool dining options, Tuscany Tower is first class, and most of all the service is always friendly and on point. One of the last great non-corporate casinos.

[@elasmojones]

Yea, I usually bounce around Atlantis/Peppermill/GSR while I'm there. Don't usually do downtown tho.

[@herbredholtz1738]

I always enjoy your reviews Ruby! I knew that GSR was a sister property of Sahara because when the SLS brand was removed it was rumored that it would be named Grand Sierra Las Vegas. However, they wisely decided to resurrect the legendary, iconic Sahara name!

[@herbredholtz1738]

Actually, it was almost named Grand Sahara Las Vegas

[@JeremyBechtold]

Was just telling my wife how I prefer Reno over Vegas. We've stayed at GSR and Peppermill and prefer GSR. Better pool and more to do there. They're both unique in their own way

[@Jeff-kz5kl]

I like Reno a lot. Of course it's not as fancy or flashy but it's much less chaotic, more laid back, and affordable than Vegas. Atlantis and Peppermill are both nice standalone resorts, similar in ways to GSR. But I always enjoy the mini strip the most. Cal Neva is all ghetto and run down but so much fun. Then the 3 Caesars properties - Circus Circus, Silver Legacy, and El Dorado - are all very nice. There are also other decent properties along "the strip". They also have that huge pro bowling arena. There's a cool interactive art park nearby. Jimboy's Tacos. Hot August Nights. All good stuff! Fun place to stay for a few days.

[@Nicole.Sisson]

We stayed at GSR last August. I was impressed by the rooms and loved the pool! The Hot August Nights event was also going on and it was so fun to see all the awesome classic cars!! 😍

[@ShawnIsBatman]

Fantastic video! Thanks for continuing to produce the best LV-related content on KZbin!

[@ericB3444]

MUAHAHAHAH

[@GregoryDean]

GSR was originally the MGM which had a huge casino (it might've been the largest in the world at the time) out by the airport with its own small shopping mall (and bowling alley) attached, but by itself away from the main downtown strip. Looks nothing like it did when it was the MGM. It had the typical huge showroom with amazing showgirls all decked out in the shows a la Vegas. It was very nice and upscale back in the day. It had amazing chandeliers all throughout the casino and hotel. Being that it was away from the strip, they tried to be all-inclusive and did a pretty good job.

[@GregoryDean]

@@pineapplemolly5358 It was the MGM before it was Bally's. It was built as the MGM. I stayed there in the 80's when it was still the MGM.

[@kyo5732]

You & Mr. Ruby bring me so much joy!! Love all your content, this is the only channel where I rewatch videos. The music is always A1 too 😁 thank you guys! ❤

Great Video Travel Ruby & Crew. It was so nice to have met you and explore IGT headquarters with you and all the other influencers. Great Job. Until next time!🙌🏻🙌🏻🌎

[@wesleyabrinamatthews6392]

You and Jackpot Beauties....love seeing that!! I follow you both so was a fun treat in the video.❤

[@sarabrucker7847]

I love them for video poker. 100-200 through the machines gets you 2 free weekday nights, so gambling & the room end up being cheaper than most rooms, and the rooms are nice.

[@jenkneefur1984]

Reno is hands down one of my favorite cities in the world. Over 20 countries visited. Highly underrated. Love love Reno

[@msscorpio4153]

Same here you took the words right out of my mouth!! I love Reno!

[@seascape35]

What is it about Reno that makes you like it so much, if I may ask?

[@jenkneefur1984]

@@seascape35 it's much cheaper than Vegas. That obviously is a big one. I used to get rooms there for like 30 dollars a night. Its a really beautiful area. You see snow in the mountains during the colder months. Its much quieter in general, its not overwhelming. I feel overwhelmed in Vegas a lot. It Its by Tahoe, its a quick day trip.

That was a great watch. Something different. Reno looks like a great place. Thanks for the insight. Will definitely want to see more. 👍

[@MH_6160]

Spending summers in Tahoe growing up we used to go to Reno and Carson City often… not as glamorous as Vegas but it still is a good time.

[@debbieburris9453]

I ❤ GSR !! I stayed there a few years ago for a concert. I stayed on an upper floor, 1 or 2 floors fr top, (concierge levels) & the view is beautiful! I also ate at Charlie Palmers, it was delish as always! I don't remember all the details, or the movie I saw in the theater, lol. It was beautiful, clean, & wonderful amenities, with a nice casino & many dining options. It has been renovated since then & I can't wait to go back next year. Take care & safe travels ❤

[@dfa3366]

Reno was a hey day place way back in the 80s. Before Indian casinos were legal in CA this was the destination for Northern California gambling. There is the 3 casinos and one a few miles down the road and that’s it.

[@livinthedream777]

OMG! I know Jackpot Beauties! Awesome 'guest' appearance! 🙂 Excellent video as usual, Ruby!

[@SHADOWACTUAL]

GSR reminds me of a Station Casino with elements of Pechanga(Temecula, CA) in it. I have unfortunately only been to Reno twice, so this looks cool.

[@weege001]

was in reno for the first time last june.. stayed at the atlantis casino/resort.. that was a fun time. also easy flight from san francisco to reno

[@ArcadeFires]

Hi Ruby! I would recommend Atlantis Casino Resort Spa in Reno!

[@bkkmj4250]

Loved this! ❤ You guys should do quarterly trips to Reno under Travel Ruby….and big congrats on 250k! 👍🎉😎

[@davefairburn3298]

If you stay at the Peppermill, request a room in the tower. 😍😍😍

[@btabnetwork6728]

Peppermill is a great stay; Best Western hotel points, too. Atlantis has the Manhattan Deli for great comfort food like cabbage rolls, matzo ball soup, and pastrami. Also a great Asian restaurant there, too.

[@dennisnichols7123]

I saw some familiar faces in the crowd at the slot tournament...how fun that you got to attend that! I assume Mr Ruby was invited too? You guys work so hard throughout the year its nice to get perks like this. Hope you guys can visit Reno more...I live 4 hours from there and to be honest would rather go there than Vegas simply because its easier to get on a train than to hassle with the airport etc.

[@bradbasic7939]

They work? Seem to be on a daily vacation.

In the old, old,old days. I used to drive across San Fransisco Bay to the air port...take a 40$ flight to Reno. It was strange because on the way back it took 2 flights...but what a view of SF bay...lol.

[@marleneotwell8839]

Next trip make the drive to South Lake Tahoe. There’s 4 gambling properties in Stateline, NV….Harrahs, Harvey’s, Balllys (not affiliated with Caesar’s) and Hard Rock. Tahoe is an absolutely breathtaking place.

Hi Ruby! I enjoy your videos and “worth it” Buffett reviews. It’s been ten years since my husband and I visited Reno so I would like to see you review the Peppermill. Never stayed there but would like to see if the property has been updated.

[@patriciabarber1535]

Peppermill. There pool is stunning and all their restaurants are amazing but Try the Romanza or Bimini steak.

i havent been to reno since 2006 but soon as y ou walked into that hotel i knew i had been there before except it was reno hilton then. i loved staying at peppermill reno but this looks beautiful too. thanks for your videos. my husband and i are hoping to finally get to las vegas next year after his medical issues get resolved . your videos are such a help in planning

Peppermill is one of the best in Reno great comps great food I go there and stay fun fun fun

[@susieuramoto7491]

As someone who grew up in Carson City and went to UNR, I LOVE GSR. (Fun Fact: It used to be MGM way back in the day. It's always felt high-end.)

[@rongarris8574]

The Eldorado and the Silver Legacy are nicer in my opinon. You can walk indoors from the Eldorado to the Silver Legacy and finally Circus Circus. In the winter, this indoor route is the way to go. You are isolated by the airport when staying at the Grabd Sierra which used to be a Hilton Hotel.

[@onobenarmato]

It used to be MGM Grand Reno. Ballys after that.

[@rongarris8574]

@@onobenarmato You are correct. It was not a Hilton. Thanks for pointing that out.

I was just talking to my husband last night about your videos and wondered if you’d ever done Reno. Then this video. Lol. 👍 We love it there. It’s no Vegas but a closer destination for us and a fun getaway. If you go back, you must eat a piece of cheesecake at The Manhattan Deli located inside the Atlantis. I know that sounds weird but it’s the best ever. We joke about driving to Reno just for the food. Thanks for the great videos!

[@glennmartinez6155]

Next time you come, try Tahoe so close! Sure, the Touristy Casino, outside walk about is cool but the very easy hikes to beautiful waterfalls are amazing! Living in the Reno area was my best move 12 years ago. Vegas this August, yea!

I spend 3 days at GSR with my free stay offers. The rooms very upscale and comfortable, i always bring a bath bomb to decompress after a long session. The pool is large and spa like. I've some great show there as well. I like Reno/Sparks for the other casino properties and I included Sparks because Scheel's, the worlds greatest sporting Goods store is 5 minutes away from GSR. And we always have a dinner at Louis' Basque Corner in Reno.

[@adameberly7949]

GSR is my go to. Got a rewards membership 5 years ago and haven't had to pay for a room since over a dozen trips. Love the 21 and over pool area. I've been to the, fore mentioned posts, Atlantis and Peppermill that are ok but not as nice as GSR. I like, what's called the Row, fun gambling and best bargain for food is at Top Deck at CalNeva casino. I had a $16 primerib and lobster tail. Not a huge lobster tail but you can add another for like $9, still a great deal.

[@lindaburton5680]
