The Property's Fixed Position
Ameristar Casino sits in Paradise, Nevada, and the venue's documented coordinates place it in the southern part of the state. The property opened in 1994, and publicly published reference sources describe a 33-story hotel containing 536 rooms and 64 suites, with 15,000 square feet of meeting and event space. Those facility figures describe a documented point in time, not necessarily today, because properties are rebuilt and expanded.
The venue's location is fixed. What changes is where you are starting from, and that is the single fact that most changes how you should read any distance figure about this property.
Straight-Line Distances to Reference Points
This article does not publish road mileage, driving time, or travel time for any route. The only distances available here are great-circle distances, which measure the shortest path across the Earth's surface between two coordinates. Road distance is always longer than straight-line distance, and the difference can be substantial depending on terrain, water crossings, and how the road network is laid out.
| Reference Point | Straight-Line Miles | Measurement Type |

No straight-line distance pairs have been supplied for this venue, so the table above contains no rows. This article cannot measure the distance from Ameristar Casino to any specific city, airport, or landmark, because no documented coordinate pairs exist in the reference material for this article.
Why Straight-Line and Road Distance Differ
A great-circle distance ignores everything on the ground. It draws a line through hills, across water, and over property lines. A road cannot do that. Roads follow terrain, avoid obstacles, and connect to existing infrastructure, so the path a vehicle travels is longer than the straight line between two points.
In southern Nevada, the difference between straight-line and road distance can be shaped by mountain ranges, the layout of the Las Vegas Valley, and the fact that major roads are built to serve developed areas rather than to connect two arbitrary points in the shortest possible way. Crossing a state line adds no distance by itself, but the road network on either side of a border may not connect directly, forcing a longer route.
The Venue's City and State
Ameristar Casino is documented as being in Paradise, Nevada. Paradise is an unincorporated town in Clark County, in the southern portion of the state. The venue's coordinates place it within the Las Vegas Valley, which is the most densely developed part of Nevada.
The state of Nevada sits in the western United States, and the venue's documented position places it in the southern part of that state, near the border with California to the west and Arizona to the southeast. Those directional statements are supported by the state's geography, not by any distance measurement supplied for this article.
Measuring From Your Own Starting Point
If you want to know how far Ameristar Casino is from where you are, you do not need this article to guess your location. The venue's position is fixed, and your position is something you already know. Take the venue's documented city and state, enter your own starting address into any mapping tool, and the tool will compute the road distance and travel time for you.
What this article can tell you is the venue's fixed location: Paradise, Nevada. What it cannot tell you is the distance from an unspecified starting point, because no such point exists in the reference material. The venue does not move; your origin does.
What to Confirm Before You Go
Before travelling to Ameristar Casino, confirm the current road distance and travel time from your specific starting point using a mapping application. Confirm the property's current operating status and any access restrictions through the venue's own published channels, because those change and are not documented here.
Confirm the hotel's current room count and amenity availability through the property's booking page or guest services line, because facility figures are revised as properties are renovated. Confirm parking access and any entry requirements directly with the venue, because those policies are not part of this article's reference material.
