About Palace Station
Las Vegas’ historic Palace Station was originally opened by Frank Fertitta, Jr. as The Casino on July 1, 1976 offering a 5,000 square foot casino and snack bar and later expanded and renamed Bingo Palace before expanding once again to become Palace Station. Station Casinos’ iconic and first casino in its family of entertainment destinations debuted its $192 million-dollar modernization in October 2018. Located minutes away from the Las Vegas Strip, guests checking into the 48-year legacy destination will be able to enjoy many of its new amenities and offerings alongside some of its iconic favorites like the Oyster Bar. The two-year revamp included a renovation of its entire casino floor as well as its 575 hotel guest rooms and suites, and the addition of a new resort-style pool area, a luxury nine-screen Regal movieplex Cinebarre and new restaurants including Lindo Michoacan and China Mama.
