Another downtown Las Vegas casino is offering an all-inclusive deal.
Golden Nugget Las Vegas is offering a $199 package that includes a two-night midweek stay, a $50 per night food and beverage credit and no resort fees. The deal is available through Dec. 28, according to the property’s website.
Guests also receive VIP check-in, a 1 p.m. late checkout and a complimentary upgrade to a Premier Rush Tower king or queen room, based on availability. A Dubai chocolate bar is included as a welcome gift.
A full deposit is required at booking, and reservations must be canceled at least 72 hours before arrival to avoid forfeiting the deposit. The deal only applies to new reservations.
Golden Nugget joins a growing number of Las Vegas resorts packaging rooms with food, drinks and other amenities for a set price. Downtown properties Circa and Plaza have offered similar promotions in recent years.
Plaza introduced its all-inclusive hotel package in summer 2024 and has brought it back each summer since. Its 2026 version includes breakfast and dinner, bottomless drinks, waived resort fees and parking.
Circa’s $400 “All-In Summer” package includes a two-night midweek stay, $100 each in dining and beverage credits and a reserved daybed at Stadium Swim, with resort fees and taxes included.

Operating profits down for A.C. casinos in second quarter
Atlantic City’s nine casino hotels saw gross operating profit fall 9.3 percent in the second quarter despite a slight increase in revenue, as rising expenses continued to squeeze the industry’s bottom line.
The nine properties reported $162.4 million in gross operating profit for the three months ending June 30, down from $179.1 million a year earlier, according to figures released Monday by the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement. Their combined net revenue increased 1.3 percent to $836.5 million.
Including Caesars Interactive Entertainment New Jersey, a separate online casino licensee, industrywide gross operating profit fell 10.1 percent to $164.9 million while net revenue increased 0.9 percent to $844.5 million.
For the first half of 2026, the nine casino hotels’ gross operating profit declined 14.9 percent to $265.3 million while net revenue increased 0.5 percent to $1.55 billion.
N.J. Casino Control Commission Chairman James Plousis said second-quarter net revenue narrowly reached its highest level in nine years, but casino hotels also faced their highest second-quarter costs and expenses over that period. All nine properties remained profitable, although only Caesars Atlantic City and Ocean Casino Resort reported year-over-year profit increases.
Brian Tyrrell, faculty director of Stockton University’s Lloyd D. Levenson Institute of Gaming, Hospitality and Tourism, cited inflationary pressures, higher online gaming taxes and the growing cost of comps and promotional credits as factors weighing on profitability.
Casino hotel occupancy increased 0.6 percentage points to 73.2 percent. Hotel occupancy rate for the first six months was 69 percent, an increase of 1.2 percentage points from the comparable period last year.
