Excalibur Casino: Fixed Location and Documented Straight-Line Distances

Excalibur Casino sits 5.2 miles from Las Vegas in straight-line measurement. Road distance is longer than straight-line distance, and this article does not publish driving mileage or travel time.

The fixed point here is the venue itself: Excalibur Hotel and Casino in Paradise, Nevada, at documented coordinates 36.09888889, -115.17555556. If you are trying to work out where it is relative to places you already know, the most defensible way to do that is to use the published straight-line pairs below and then check your own route with a live map before setting out.

Where the venue is

Publicly published reference sources place Excalibur Hotel and Casino in Paradise, Nevada. Its documented coordinates are 36.09888889 latitude and -115.17555556 longitude, which fixes the property in southern Nevada.

Those coordinates also let you describe its regional position in simple directional terms without inventing route details. The venue lies west of Henderson, east of Los Angeles, San Francisco, Sacramento, San Jose, Portland, Seattle, Reno, and Sacramento Airport, and north of Phoenix, Palm Springs, Temecula, San Diego, Los Angeles, LAX, Miami, Orlando, Tampa, Daytona Beach, Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, New Orleans, Biloxi, Gulfport, and Lake Charles.

It is south of Reno, Sacramento, San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, Denver, Chicago, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Detroit, Buffalo, Boston, Toronto, Syracuse, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Atlantic City, New York City, Manhattan, Washington DC, Charlotte, Atlanta, Kansas City, St Louis, Topeka Kansas, Tulsa, Oklahoma City, Denton TX, Arlington TX, Dallas, Houston, Shreveport, Tunica, and Charleston Reddit. It is also west of Phoenix, Denver, Oklahoma City, Tulsa, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Topeka Kansas, Kansas City, St Louis, Chicago, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Detroit, Atlanta, Charlotte, Miami, Tampa, Orlando, Boston, Toronto, Buffalo, Syracuse, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Atlantic City, Washington DC, New York City, Manhattan, Rehoboth Beach Delaware, Lake George, and Niagara Falls.

Documented straight-line distances

The table below lists every injected reference pair for this venue. Each figure is a great-circle measurement, meaning a straight line between coordinates rather than a road route.

Why straight-line distance and real travel differ

A great-circle figure is useful because it tells you the venue's fixed spatial relationship to a known point without guessing roads, traffic, or mode of travel. It is the cleanest answer to the question of where the building is in relation to a city, airport, neighborhood, or landmark when only coordinates are being compared.

Real travel almost always comes out longer because people and vehicles do not move through a map as a straight line. Roads curve, connect at limited points, and often require detours around built-up areas, water, grade changes, access restrictions, and the geometry of the street network itself.

Longer trips add more sources of divergence. Interstate borders, mountain corridors, desert routing, metropolitan approach patterns, and airport access roads all make a practical route longer than the direct geometric line between two coordinate points. That is why a straight-line figure is best read as a location reference, not as a substitute for a route plan.

The venue as a physical property

Publicly published reference sources describe this property as a 28-story hotel with 3,981 rooms. The same source set states that it opened on June 19, 1990.

For the casino floor, published reference sources describe an opening inventory of 2,630 slot machines and more than 100 table games. Figures like room counts, gaming positions, and floor composition describe a documented point in time; properties can be rebuilt, reconfigured, expanded, or reduced later.

The ownership reference supplied here names Vici Properties as owner. Branding, operating arrangements, and property control can change over time, so readers using this article for planning should treat ownership as a documented snapshot and verify current venue details directly through the property's own official channels.

How to use these distances if your starting point is not listed

This article can only publish the exact reference pairs that are documented above. If your own town, neighborhood, or airport is not one of those entries, this page cannot measure that specific pair.

In that case, the practical method is simple: use the venue's fixed coordinates, 36.09888889 and -115.17555556, in any standard map tool and compare them with your own starting point. That gives you an up-to-date route based on your actual origin, while the table here still helps you understand the venue's broader position within Nevada and relative to the listed places.

What to confirm before you go

Before spending money on travel, confirm the changeable details that a location explainer does not freeze in time. That includes the property's current operating arrangements, parking setup, hotel availability, venue access points, and any event-related restrictions that might affect entry or circulation.

The authoritative place to check those items is the property's own official contact and booking channels. If you are navigating from a specific origin, confirm your live route in a current mapping service rather than relying on any straight-line number, because this article does not publish road mileage or journey duration.

FAQ

Is Excalibur Casino in Las Vegas or Paradise?

The documented city is Paradise, Nevada. It is also listed as 5.2 miles from Las Vegas in straight-line measurement, which explains why readers often associate it with Las Vegas even when the published city field is Paradise.

Can I use the table here as a driving-distance guide?

No. Every figure in the distance table is a great-circle measurement, which means a straight line between coordinate points. Real road travel is longer, sometimes substantially so, because routes follow the street network and whatever access constraints exist on the day you travel.

How big is the Excalibur property in the published references?

The supplied published references describe a 28-story hotel with 3,981 rooms, and the opening casino inventory is given as 2,630 slot machines and more than 100 table games. Those are documented figures from the cited reference material, not a claim about the venue's current layout today.
