Our verdict
6.6/10Resorts World is the newest casino on the Strip and the floor is clean, large and easy to walk, but the gambling case is weaker than the architecture. The poker room closed in March 2026, parking charges returned in 2025, and the fees and north Strip location mean a trip here is a deliberate choice. Worth it for high-limit players and Hilton loyalists; ordinary gamblers have closer, busier options.

If you still want to play cards at Resorts World Las Vegas, we have bad news in the first line: the poker room closed on 29 March 2026. The resort said it wanted to introduce new gaming in its place, and the closure left eight card rooms on the Strip. A casino with 117,000 sq ft of floor and no cash-game table is a different proposition from the one many older write-ups describe.
This review covers what a gambler gets for the trip, not the rooms in isolation. Gambling is entertainment with a house edge that does not move because the carpet is new.
The place on the map
Resorts World sits at the north end of the Strip beside Circus Circus, with the Fontainebleau across the road. Casino directories put the walk to Wynn and Encore at around 20 minutes. That is the first cost of the trip. Anyone planning to hop between tables on foot will spend the evening crossing sidewalks rather than playing.
Entry to the casino floor is free. What costs money is everything around it, and that is where the numbers need reading.
What is on the floor
Third-party directories list about 117,000 sq ft of gaming space, roughly 1,400 slots and 117 table games, with blackjack, roulette, craps, baccarat, Three Card Poker, Pai Gow Poker, Ultimate Texas Hold'em and Crazy 4 Poker named. These are directory counts, not resort statements, and one of those pages still lists a working poker room, which shows how stale some of the data is. We did not count machines.
The main floor's table minimums are not published anywhere we could find. For the high-limit areas they are: Crockfords on the main floor and Sky Casino on the 66th floor take minimums from $100, with many games at $200. Top limits quoted are $10,000 a hand at blackjack, $20,000 at baccarat and single-zero roulette, and $5,000 at craps. A single-zero wheel is worth noting, because it cuts the house edge from 5.26% to 2.70% against a double-zero wheel.
The sportsbook
The sportsbook lives inside the DawgHouse Saloon, with about 100 main seats and more around the bar. Hours are 7am to 1am Sunday to Thursday and 7am to 2am Friday and Saturday. It suits a fan who wants a seat and a drink, not a bettor shopping for lines.
Fees that decide whether the trip makes sense
Free casino entry does not make a free night. Paid self-parking returned at $21 a day in September 2025, after the resort had waived parking and resort fees over summer 2025. Locals with Nevada plates can register for an exemption. We could not confirm whether anything changed in 2026, so check before you drive in.
The resort fee is the other line. Sources we read put it near $50 a night, and a tracker lists $62.36 at the Conrad tower. Only one source gives that last number, so treat it as a ceiling to ask about when you book. The offers page lists seasonal promotions; none of the ones in frame were casino credits.
Rooms, food and the loyalty trade
The rooms page carries the Hilton name, and the stay can earn Hilton Honors points. Genting Rewards is the casino program, with tiers from Royal to Imperial, and you need to be 21 and show photo ID to join. If your play is modest, the sensible rule is to join before you sit down, so that every hand counts from the first one.
The dining page leads with Kusa Nori, a restaurant with suspended koi fish sculptures, and a Saturday brunch at Fuhu. Food here is a draw in its own right, and for some visitors it is a better reason to come than the slots.
Who should go, and who should not
Go if you play high-limit blackjack or baccarat and want a single-zero wheel, or if you hold Hilton status and prefer a new building to an old one. The 66th-floor Sky Casino is the draw in that group.
Stay away if poker is the plan; the room is gone. Also skip it if you want a casino you can combine with five others on foot, or if the whole budget is $200 for a weekend. A $21 parking day and a resort fee of about $50 take a large bite out of that before a chip is bought.
We score it 6.6: well built, thin on reasons to gamble here rather than closer to the Strip's centre. Set a loss limit before you walk in, and treat it as the cost of the evening.
