In this video we are doing a review of staying at Horseshoe Hotel and Casino at the center of the Las Vegas Strip. I stayed in the cheapest room available (Resort King) and was able to get upgraded to a higher floor with a better view without doing the $20 trick. I'll give you a walkthrough tour of the property, show you a lot of activities and new things to do since they changed their name from Bally's. We'll cover the hotel room, the WSOP poker room, how to find the uber and lyft pickup spot, the new arcade (former sportsbook), Twilight Zone by Monster Mini Golf, Bodies Exhibit, National Geographic Rarely Seen, Cabinet of Curiosities Bar and Speakeasy, gym/fitness center, food court, pool, monorail station, Bazaar Shops, steakhouse, restaurants, best photo spots and history (MGM fire). We'll wrap up the video with pros and cons, the resort fee, taxes, how good of a value the property is (cheap vs expensive), what type of traveler it is ideal for and a few employee shout outs!

Great Job
Been wondering about this hotel. Thanks for the vid!
50k bracelet that you have to leave behind?
Con or scam?
I truly would stay here too❤❤
FINALLY a video that has a FULL no nonsense update on the property. Thanks Jacob!
You're welcome Boomer Tuber!
Adult video poker in kids' arcade is Casino extension to lower level. Is "Bally's" foyer entrance sign heritage listed? Binion's Horseshoe back on Fremont forever the only Horseshoe.
And don't forget the empty mini fridge. This is gold for me. CVS 200 yards away for loading that bad boy up.
I like how you always give credit to everyone who work behind the scenes. You are a humble and very appreciative person, and put out good vibes. Glad I found your channel. Thx.
Honestly I been watching Jacob since he started this channel and I love how he just gets to the point and tells what’s up right away - no click bait here y’all
Love how the daily resort fee is more than the actual room rate per night, essentially more than doubling the cost of the room.
Joe Biden is making a push to ban resort fees. Would be a welcome and wonderful change. Can't afford Vegas with these prices.
Yeah, those damn resort fees. The old days, come on back!
What's so bad about it is that it's just greed. You already pay big bucks to eat at the resort restaurants, plus possibly losing loads in the casino. Charge for parking...geez. Tipping staff....If they must charge resort fee they could cut it down to $10. Not the same amount of the room.
Biden said last year that eliminating resort fees was on his agenda. Unfortunately, I'm skeptical it will ever happen.
@Flint Ironstag They are still looking into it. Sorry, the federal government doesn't work as fast as you wish the federal government to work. They are also looking into all the excess charges airlines charge.
Jacob I love how you thank the employees and the outside workers…this truly shows what a great, kind person you are! Joanna from Canada 🇨🇦🥰🥰❤
Those spin edits/transitions in the hotel room are awesome!!
Glad you like them!
This video was amazing! 👏 Thank you, Jacob. Now, I have more of a better understanding as to what I should expect. Props to you for the shout-outs! Especially to the outside workers enhancing and maintaining the cosmetics of the property grounds.
🚨 Remember to periodically check to make sure you are still subscribed. YT randomly unsubs people!🚨
My husband and I just stayed there on the 13th for 3 nights. He had a business trip and I tagged along. We stayed in the jubilee tower( older one) and it was ok. The price was unbelievable for basically center strip, and the slots were good to us. 👍❤️
I'm so glad you mentioned the uber pickup. as someone who does Uber fulltime, lots of people will be at the main entrances of casinos and I have to tell them where to go. They sometimes think we just don't want to "go around the corner" to get them but they don't know we could get fined, also when it's super busy that little corner can turn into a 10-20 minute turn around if it's bumper to bumper
Yeah that’s true. A lot of tourists don’t realize every hotel in Las Vegas has a designated place for pick ups. They can get in a lot of trouble if they break the rules so be patient with your drivers and meet them where they tell you!
Thanks Jacob for an awesome review! Love how you mention the deal at the exhibits and also how cheap the beverages are at the arcade! For a budget traveler, I appreciate any and all money saving tips 🙌🏽
Thank you Jacob for this very interesting video. I think the most valuable comment ( apart from the hotel reviews) you made that I hope everyone take notice, is the acknowledgement of the painters and window cleaners that work outside the hotels...especially during summers if they do.
This was a great video! I was really wanting a straightforward honest review of the rebranded Bally's. Great job Jacob!
You are there for quality presentation! Very informative, organized and total coverage. You have grown so much in presentation. Thank you for the complete view!
Thank you Timothy!
Flawlessly done! Great video Jacob!! Killing it. 😀
Great review as always Jacob. Thanks for your videos. 👍👍
Thanks for this review! I stayed at Bally's the first time I visited Las Vegas and I agree about the location, couldn't be better!
Thanks . Coming to Vegas in July and the reviews are a tremendous help.
Thank you for an excellent informative video ! I’ve always liked Bally’s and it was was interesting to now see what it looks like since becoming Horseshoe. The one negative has always been their lack of dining options but like you said there are so many options just outside the door. And also it’s attached to Paris and that walkway between casinos has a lot of good choices. Thanks again for sharing this update.
Isn’t Ballys or now the Horseshoe the casino with the cheap table games?
@@jamesmcallister8124 yes
@Northeners In other words, the minimum bet per blackjack hand is less than at most places? 😊
What is wrong with you people?There is nothing in Vegas!So why would you go there?
Finding what a hotel gym looks like and includes (no matter where I travel globally) is so hard, so appreciated that insight!
WOW. This is one of the best and most well planned out walk throughs I've ever seen. Managed to cover just about everything in good detail without rushing through it. Lots of good editing and camera work. The room review was refreshing to see someone on camera showing the features instead of someone just walking through the room with a camera in front of them. The brief still shots and moving video were placed in good spots. The graphics inserted like the Mirage video were good to. Just an awesome video.
Awesome overview Jacob! THANK YOU!
I'm staying here for the first time for the Super Bowl in a few weeks. Props to you for this video, you literally covered everything including the ride share pickup spot. I haven't seen anything about the mini golf spot anywhere else online.
Your production quality is quite good. Video hits everything you need, moves quickly, fun. Great job! And I like you giving the employees shoutouts.
Thank you Milt!
Love the upgrade in production value Jacob. Keep up the great work!
Great Video Jacob. i liked the new remodels they've done to the property. can't wait to see the finished product with the painting and new sign
Super informative! Thanks Jacob!
Very informative video! Thanks, Jacob!!
Jacob - haven't watched a video of yours probably since 2019/20 - man this is a slick one, graat to see the growth and improvement from you - thx. Nice job.
Loved the video, Jacob! I agree with you. Bally’s was my go to hotel for many years! I especially enjoy how spacious they are compared to other value hotels on the strip!!
I enjoy your videos a lot. No nonsense, just good all around advice and done very professionally.
Great update on the property. Bally’s has always been my go to spot in Vegas. It’s centrally located, parking is good, gaming is good. Caesars rewards takes care of you pretty much. Glad to see that they’re reviving the lower area/underground mall.. walking distance to a lot of good spots. The only thing Is why the pool is so far from the rooms? Other than that our go to spot!
You always create amazing videos!! Keep posting !
Saludos!!
Production value as stepped up a LOT! Nice!!! 💪
Fantastic review. Loved the production value. Better than most anything on the Travel Channel.
After being the step child of Caesar’s it nice to see it getting some love well needed
I stayed at Bally's during covid July 2020 What a difference! Remarkable! Excellent Video Jacob!
The views of Vegas at night is a thing of beauty. There's just something about it that's amazing
Horseshoe is my New GO TO hotel on the strip.
Excellent review on the horseshoe hotel. Usually, I find myself skipping through these types of reviews. However, I watched yours from beginning to end. I was tuned in. Again, it was an excellent review. New sub here 🙃
This was great. The content was very well put together and your camera work and editing was top notch!
Great job as always!
3:51 I love how you show the maps, that’s really helpful for people planning trips
Your hotel reviews are really good.Keep them coming.
This is one of the quickest 17 minute Vegas videos I've watched. Very well done.
Hi Jacob! We met you when you made this video! It was awesome to meet you, especially because you were so kind and friendly! Shelley & Tom 🇨🇦
I remember! Thank you guys! I appreciate the support 😀
As always great information. Will be heading to the horseshoe
They have the friendless staff, 65 inch TVs, a long history, and are willing to upgrade me everytime. Also the room prices there seem to fluctuate more than most.
The camera work and editing is 🔥. Great content! Thanks Jacob!
You have such Professional PROFESSIONAL CONTENT 🇲🇽🙏🏽
Good video. Yes, I'm old enough to remember when that property was the MGM Grand. I'll check out Horseshoe next time I pop up to Vegas from L.A.
Awesome tour of the Horseshoe, will definitely be checking it out - WW
Solid content Jason. You put a lot of hard work into creating these videos. Appreciate ya!
I always love to watch your videos Jacob. I am someone who usually stays at Delano MGM Grand and Aria With my family for our stays. We love the 12 foot deep pool at the horseshoe and we think it is an under rated property! It is definitely one of our favorites
We stayed there a few days ago and I 100% agree with your assessment. Great price, great location, great room. We had a view of the Eiffel Tower and part of the fountains in our Jubilee Room. I also appreciate that it's not a giant property!
You know that the eiffel tower is not real don't you
@@greer2402 It I s real!
Why would you give a fuck about the view,its all just cheap fake teastless trash!Better having no window at all!
Loved your video…super informative! ❤
One of my favorite places and very underrated. Thanks Jacob!
Thanks for the vid Jacob !
You're welcome Winston!
Very nice! They did a great job with a key resort on the strip! Bring Vegas back to life!
Excellent review. I'm very familiar with the old downstairs area. Very few people ever seemed to be down there. Hopefully, with all the new things people head down
I hope so too!
The arcade used to be a sportsbook which used to be an arcade back in the early '90s. You can actually see the old arcade in the movie Honeymoon in Vegas.
Awesome video! Everything is clear and very useful. Thanks a lot!
Great vid, Jacob! I definitely want to check out that Curiosities bar! I love weird themed bars like that. Also, video idea: Weirdest bars in Vegas?? I would LOVE to see that! 😍💀👽🤡
Nice job. I have to say I am happy to see how clean and organized the casino floor looked. I hope they can keep this place up.
Why?Who gives a shit about childish casinos!
Great video thanks Jacob
Glad you mentioned a little history and the famous fire of 1980. I read that some people in the casino didn't want to leave their slot machine even though the place was on fire---how dumb was that. Also, Vegas supposedly now has the toughest fire code in the country because of that fire.
I've heard stories of ghosts being seen there after the fire.
Happens all the time. Gambling is a strong addiction for a lot of people and they refuse to leave the machine even if their life is in danger. Kinda sad. PH had a flood a while back and there’s a video of a woman getting rained on at a slot and she just refused to change machines. Please when you come to our casinos we want you to have fun but if you can’t control the urge to play then seek help. We have resources for you and there’s no shame in it. I’ve done it myself.
What tower was it
Harrah's in Laughlin, NV once had a bomb threat and it took forever to clear the casino floor. I finished my work and wanted to go home, but I was stuck there too. At least I didn't have to leave a machine "that was about to hit", haha. I've heard of many stories of people soiling themselves because they didn't want someone taking "their" machine.
In a fire you could get burned twice, one could get burned on their body and when the casino shuts off the power before you casn out. Some people don't think ahead.
Luv your vids man. You give great and needed content. Pls keep it up. Vegas is always changing.
Nice video Jacob! Great editing and camera work. Loved it!
Thank you Jacob it's always good to know this every time we visit Vegas.😉
A very cool and informative update on the casino. Ilike your style on this one. Hats off to your videographer and editor. Cheers!
Great video and thorough overview!!
Great video. had a bit of a "Pompsie" vibe to it but still uniquely Jacob's life in Vegas. I've been watching since you had about 20k subs. Now at 145k I'm still here and still digging the channel.
Thanks! I’m staying there in March. Awesome video Jacob.👍💯🎲🎰
Awesome! Thank you Jose!
Thanks for this video 👍🏼
Watched sooo many videos this is the best one thank you!
Great video. Have stayed there many times under Ballys and I agree with everything you said.
I stayed here in September, during the transition, I honestly loved our stay , the location is fantastic and rooms were spacious. We even got partial view of the fountains and Eiffel Tower view, so far my favorite :)
Great video as always - thank-you so much and love from the UK!!🙏🏻🇬🇧🇺🇸
this is one of the best videos Jacob has come out with..tp notch!
@6:53, loved your Elmo laugh 😀
I stayed at the original MGM on this site. Early 70’s, it was the place to be in Vegas at that time. Good old days.
You’re the first person I noticed doing a horseshoe review! Awesome!
Great informational vid with awesome edits on the 🐴🧲!
🙋🏻♂️...🐎 👠...🤣😂
Lets go
My treat
The Steakhouse at the Horseshoe

Hi, Jacob..., I am so proud of you ! ! Excellent video and very informative, and "Thank you" for sharing the video... * Once again.., "Excellent video ! !" I may be hooked on the newly remodeled "Horseshoe Hotel & Casino." Your friend always.., " Semper Fi " Mike in Montana :)
Glad to see u give shout to the painters !
Haven’t been to Vegas since before Covid and you make me want to go back so bad! Keep up the amazing content.
Nice video Jacob Thanks from England
I am going to stay here next Vegas trip, thanks for doing this walkthrough. Blacklight mini golf.... HELL YEAH! And the curiosity bar! I love this hotel.
They have a good view of the waterfalls across st & a good view of the high roller too
You’ve come a long way Jacob! I remember being excited for you hitting 75K! Glad to see the huge jump of subs! I watched videos of you driving around Vegas neighborhoods before we moved here. That was 2 years ago and we’re now approaching our 3rd year here! Keep it up and hope to catch you one day!❤
going next week... can't wait to check out the new Horseshoe!
Great video! I'm gonna be staying here in May of this year and it was great to get some info on the updates
I’ve stayed at Bally’s maybe 15 times. Great discount hotel and hope Horseshoe continues to make positive changes. The old girl needed some TLC. Good well thought out tour. Thanks Jacob
We stayed there for 3 nights a few weeks ago.. we were shocked how much we enjoyed it. Our view was of the stage door 😂 but it was entertaining 😂 easy access to everything. Love the size of the room too!! Would definitely recommend!
I’m watching you forever bro - your videos are looking super sharp - awesome editing, sound and shooting. I’m a TH-camr as well I get a lot of motivation from you.
A good job on this video Jacob👍 I will try to stay at this Horseshoe Hotel in future.
