Business Description from the Web
Originally opened as the Sundance in 1980, it later gained the "luck of the Irish" and became Fitzgerald's. There can not be a luckier place to stay in than Glitter Gulch , from the leprechaun on the roof to the six authentic blarney stones on display; the place exudes good fortune. Hotel guests will enjoy the 42,000 square foot casino, three restaurants and three bars. The comfortable rooms...

For a short period of time, Fitzgerald's was the most shamelessly cheesy casino downtown. In 1996, the casino revamped the entrance and added a splashier neon rainbow, complete with Mr. O'Lucky, its leprechaun mascot. He later disappeared along with the fake tree and the piece of blarney stone that once took up precious gambling space on the first level. Now the Irish theme is more discrete,...

Tips About This Business
The second-floor Lookout Lounge offers a great view of the light show just outside on the Fremont Experience and McDonald's also has a view of the constantly improving light show.
Machines surround the small table area on the first floor of the casino and more machines and restaurants can be found upstairs.
Elvis impersonators are especially in vogue right now, probably because of several new Elvis-theme slot machines. It may or may not be a distraction to gamblers to endure one of any number of Elvi crooning "The Hawaiian Wedding Song" in the lounge.

They didn't have the type of room we reserved available when we checked in...so were stuck sleeping in separate beds like my grandparents. The room we did get was old, dirty, and the toilet didn't work. They fixed the toilet just to have it leak again 3 hours later. Susans advice at customer service was to just call the bellagio next time (we did). Don't stay here unless you like c@!%!y...

This was not one of my favorite downtown Casinos. There are not many new slots but the place is nice and clean, very good restaurants and friendly staff, Good coffee and donut stop.
I have stayed at this hotel a few times, but have gambled there even more. I love downtown Las Vegas - it has a totally different feel than the strip. I also love that at Fitzgerald's they have a ton of quarter video poker machines and they still take quarters. I love to play using quarters - the money lasts a little longer. The rooms at this hotel are just O.K. - reasonably priced. Parking is...
