Hotel Description:
It's close to the Strip and hot destinations like the Hard Rock Hotel, but Terrible's spacious, well-lit and comfortable hotel-casino is all about the local action.
And it's not terrible. In fact, Terrible's Hotel-Casino is one of the friendliest establishments in Las Vegas that caters almost exclusively to locals. The name is a kind of local legacy -- the hotel is owned by the Herbst family, which owns and operates the Terrible Herbst gas stations. And like those roadside stalwarts, Terrible's puts service first.
The casino is smaller than many of its Strip counterparts but is spacious and absolutely loaded with amenities. Terrible's boasts a sports book, table games, cafe, buffet, a bingo room and 945 slot machines featuring the requisite modern casino ticket-in-ticket-out system, saving you the drudge of lugging around a bucket of coins.
For the gourmet, Terrible's features the 24-hour Bougainvillea Cafe, specializing in steaks, seafood and an exclusive Chinese menu and breakfast available anytime. Terrible's Buffet offers nightly specials. Terrible's is also located on "restaurant row," within walking distance of P.F. Chang's, Buca di Beppo, Morton's steak house, Hamada's, Roy's, Gordon Biersch Brewery and Lawry's The Prime Rib. There is also a lounge and a sports bar.
Perhaps the quirkiest feature of Terrible's is the bank of video poker machines that offers players a chance to win gas at a Terrible Herbst station. Terrible's may be a locally oriented joint, but it's worth a visit just for the gas machines. Who else offers you a chance to win a full tank for your trip home?
