The Aquarius
The Aquarius Casino Resort Hotel, which opened as the Flamingo Hilton in 1990, is one of the newest hotels in Laughlin.

The 1,907 rooms are grouped into "Luxury" and "Riverview" categories and the 90 suites are grouped into "Casino" and "Executive" classifications. Categories are determined by the location and view. All rooms include high-thread-count sheets, blackout curtains, designer carpet and furnishings and complimentary bath items. Tower accommodations are limited to adults over 18 years of age. Gaming includes slots, live poker and both race and sports book. Fine dining, requiring reservations, is offered at the hotel's Vineyard Ristorante.
