El Cortez Hotel and Casino is one of the oldest in Las Vegas. The hotel, once owned by mobster Bugsy Siegal, sits in a section of downtown that pre-dates The Strip. The El Cortez is operated by local legend Jackie Gaughan, who has owned the hotel since 1963. Guests and gamblers drink in an authentic glimpse of the Old Vegas at affordable rates. The 40,000-square-foot casino is the main draw and an excellent place for ``low-roller`` gambling with low- stakes tables and loose slots. Gamblers can go crazy with multi-race keno, blackjack, craps, roulette, mini baccarat, three-card poker, slots, and a race and sports book. The El Cortez remains a Las Vegas landmark with much of the historic main building the same as it was in 1941.
