Circus Circus Reno, Hotel and casino complex in Downtown Reno, United States
Circus Circus Reno is a hotel and casino complex in downtown Reno featuring approximately 1,620 hotel rooms and a large gaming floor. The property connects via a sky bridge to neighboring Silver Legacy and Eldorado casinos, forming a unified entertainment destination.
The building was originally constructed as a department store in 1957 and transformed into a casino in 1978. This conversion marked the shift from retail commerce to a major gambling and entertainment venue in downtown Reno.
The casino maintains a circus theme with daily performances by acrobats and jugglers above the midway. Visitors experience this playful entertainment as part of the venue's core identity.
The hotel features accommodations spread across three separate towers with different room types and comfort levels. Guests should expect significant walking distances between tower sections and between the hotel and casino areas.
The casino is known for its carnival games and playful approach to entertainment, setting it apart from the serious glamour of other major casinos. This family-friendly concept attracts visitors seeking casual fun rather than high-stakes gambling.
