Coin Slots in Las Vegas: Fixed Locations and Distances

Coin Slots in Las Vegas: Fixed Locations and Distances

e
editor
The D Las Vegas sits 0.1 straight-line miles from central Las Vegas. Road distance is longer, and this article does not publish driving miles or travel times.

The D Las Vegas is documented at 0.1 straight-line miles from the Las Vegas city reference point, and the Four Queens at 0.2 straight-line miles. Road distance is always longer than straight-line distance, and this article does not publish driving miles, travel times, or route numbers for any pairing.

What this article can do is fix the venues on a map and give you the straight-line separations that are documented. What it cannot do is tell you how long it will take to get there from your hotel, the airport, or any other starting point, because driving distance depends on roads, traffic, and the exact origin you choose. The question of whether coin-operated machines still exist at a given property is a live operational detail that changes, and no current machine configuration is documented here.

Where the venues sit

All of the documented venues in this set sit in downtown Las Vegas, Nevada, clustered within a fraction of a mile of one another. The coordinates place them at the eastern end of the Fremont Street area, which is the historic core of the city and distinct from the Strip several miles to the south. The city reference point is fixed at 36.16916667 north latitude and 115.14055556 west longitude.

The venues documented here are not a complete list of casinos in Las Vegas. This file documents 481 venues in total across its coverage area, and no claim is made about the total number of casinos in the city, county, or state. For a complete current list, the Nevada gaming regulator is the authoritative channel.

Documented straight-line distances

Every figure below is a great-circle measurement between two documented coordinate pairs. It is not a road distance, and it cannot be converted into a driving time by any fixed rule.

Why straight-line and road distance diverge

A great-circle measurement is the shortest path across the surface of the earth between two latitude and longitude points. A road route cannot follow that path. It must follow the street grid, which in downtown Las Vegas runs on a rectangular block pattern, and it must cross intersections, obey one-way streets, and route around any pedestrian-only zones.

Terrain and water are less of a factor in the immediate downtown area than in other regions, but the road network itself adds length. A venue that is 0.3 straight-line miles away can require a walk or drive that is meaningfully longer because the route wraps around blocks rather than cutting through them. Crossing a state boundary does not apply within this downtown cluster, since all documented venues sit in Nevada, but the principle holds anywhere: fixed coordinates describe where a place is, not how a person reaches it.

Fixed position, moving reader

If your question starts from "me," "here," or "my location," that starting point does not exist in any fixed dataset. The venue's position is fixed and documented; your position is not. The correct way to measure is to take your own coordinates or street address and compare them against the venue coordinates shown above.

You can do this with any mapping tool that accepts latitude and longitude. The D Las Vegas sits at 36.16972222 north latitude and 115.14277778 west longitude. The Four Queens sits at 36.16972222 north latitude and 115.14361111 west longitude. The Horseshoe and Binion's share the same documented coordinates at 36.17138889 north latitude and 115.14444444 west longitude, and the Golden Nugget Las Vegas sits at 36.17083333 north latitude and 115.14472222 west longitude.

What the documented venue records show

The D Las Vegas is documented with 1,000 slot machines and 22 table games located on two floors, and it opened on July 2, 1980. The Four Queens is documented with 105 slot machines in its casino expansion, 115 hotel rooms at opening, and a June 2, 1966 opening date. The Horseshoe and Binion's records both show 366 hotel rooms and a 1932 opening, with the hotel portion documented as having closed in 2009.

None of these figures tells you whether coin-operated slot machines are currently on the floor. Slot machine configurations change as operators replace, upgrade, or reconfigure cabinets. A machine count is a snapshot, not a statement about payment method. The question of coin acceptance is an operational detail that the property itself is the only reliable current source for.

What to confirm before you go

Before you travel specifically to find coin-operated machines, confirm the current situation through the property's own channels. The items that change and the channel that holds the current answer are:

  • Whether any coin-in or coin-out machines remain on the floor — confirm with the casino cage or slot department directly.
  • Whether a documented machine count still reflects the current floor — counts change as cabinets are swapped.
  • Whether a venue is open and operating under the name documented here — ownership and branding of casino properties change through sales and rebrands.
  • Whether a hotel room count still matches the documented figure — room inventories change with renovations and closures.

Publicly published reference sources supply the figures above, and they describe a documented point in time, not today. The venue's own published pages, its guest services line, or the Nevada gaming regulator's current records are where a live answer lives.

FAQ

Does this article confirm that coin slots still exist in Las Vegas?

No. This article documents fixed locations and straight-line distances only. Whether any specific property currently operates coin-accepting machines is a live operational detail that changes with cabinet replacements and floor reconfigurations. The property's slot department or the casino cage is the authoritative channel for a current answer.

How far is the D Las Vegas from the Four Queens?

This article does not publish a distance for that specific venue-to-venue pair because it is not in the documented set. Both venues are documented relative to the Las Vegas city reference point: the D at 0.1 straight-line miles and the Four Queens at 0.2 straight-line miles. Road distance between them would be longer.

Can I use the coordinates to find these venues myself?

Yes. Each documented venue has fixed latitude and longitude coordinates listed in the article. Enter those coordinates into any mapping tool to see the venue's position and to measure from your own starting point. The measurement you get will be a straight-line figure unless the tool also provides a road route.
