Southern Horseshoe Casino: Fixed Location and Documented Straight-Line Distances

From this venue’s documented position, the straight-line distance is 386.3 miles to Sacramento, 240.4 miles to LAX, 2227.8 miles to NYC, and 4.1 miles to Caesars, all straight-line. Road distance is always longer than straight-line distance, and this article does not publish driving mileage or travel time.

The search term “southern horseshoe casino” points here to the venue publicly published as Binion's Gambling Hall and Hotel, with the alias horseshoe. The useful fixed facts are its coordinates, its documented historical room count, its opening context, its documented owner, and the straight-line distances that have been published against named reference points.

Where the venue is fixed on the map

This venue is documented at latitude 36.17138889 and longitude -115.14444444. Those coordinates place it in Nevada, and the longitude shows it is west of the prime meridian while the latitude places it north of the equator.

For a reader trying to orient themselves, that fixed position matters more than any brand phrasing in the search query. Your own starting point may change, but the venue’s mapped position does not, so the clean way to compare places is to start with the coordinates and then check the published straight-line pairs below.

Documented venue facts tied to place

Publicly published reference sources describe the venue under the title Binion's Gambling Hall and Hotel. The same sources give a documented hotel figure of 366 rooms, with the source text noting that the hotel had 366 rooms before that hotel component closed in 2009.

The opening context published for the property points to 1932 through the Hotel Apache reference. Ownership is published as TLC Casino Enterprises, and ownership and branding can change over time, so readers should treat that as a documented point-in-time statement rather than a permanent condition.

How to read those mileage figures correctly

Every mileage figure in the table is a great-circle measurement. That means it is the shortest path over the earth’s surface between two coordinates, not the path a person follows on streets, highways, or other transport networks.

Real trips come out longer for several reasons. Roads bend around built-up areas, terrain, private land, and water; route networks do not run as a perfect straight line; and long trips can involve detours created by state boundaries, crossing points, and the practical shape of the available road grid.

That is why a straight-line figure is good for orientation but not for trip budgeting. It tells you whether one reference point is geographically nearer or farther in pure map terms, while the real route must be checked separately on a current mapping service.

How the venue sits within its wider region

The documented coordinates place the venue in Nevada. Using only the coordinates, it can be described as north of the equator and west of the prime meridian, which is the most defensible directional framing available here without adding unsupported regional claims.

The distance table then gives a second layer of context. Some published reference points are very close in straight-line terms, such as Harrah at 3.9 miles, Caesars at 4.1 miles, Bourbon Street at 4.1 miles, Monte Carlo at 4.9 miles, Silverton at 9.2 miles, and South Point at 11.2 miles, while others are far broader national or international comparisons such as Toronto at 1948.0 miles, Washington DC at 2082.3 miles, NYC at 2227.8 miles, and Okada at 7373.7 miles.

What this query can and cannot identify

The phrase “southern horseshoe casino” is not, by itself, a precise geographic measurement request. What this article can do is anchor that search term to the documented venue record associated here with the alias horseshoe and the published title Binion's Gambling Hall and Hotel, then show the fixed coordinates and the published straight-line comparison points.

What it cannot do is invent a missing pair. If you wanted the straight-line distance from this venue to a place not listed in the published matrix, this article cannot measure that segment. In that case, use the coordinates 36.17138889, -115.14444444 in a mapping tool and compare from your own chosen origin.

What to confirm before you go

Before travelling, confirm the changeable details on the venue’s own contact and booking channels. The items most likely to change are hotel availability, whether the hotel component is operating in the way you expect, current branding, access arrangements, parking terms, and any live operating hours for amenities.

If your question is really about how far the trip is by road, use a current mapping service rather than the straight-line table above. If your question is about the property’s present-day room inventory or ownership name, check the venue’s official property information because room counts, branding, and ownership can all change after renovations, closures, or sales.
