Golden Nugget rooms all feature two things you won’t find in L’Auberge rooms: balconies and banquettes. The Golden Nugget rooms are newer as the property opened December 2014 and L’Auberge opened in May 2005. Aside from beds and showers, each has unique qualities. The rooms in both locations are high quality and have different benefits to offer. And of course after all the fun has drained our energy (and bank accounts), a nice place to rest is needed.

Comparison Of The Roomsīoth properties exist as resort destinations with gambling, food, pools, bars, retail, spa, and entertainment options.

I don’t do clubs, but they don’t really have them. Finally, I won’t go into table games because I don’t play them.

However, taste and preference are individual, so if you don’t like my choice, no harm no foul. I think I’ll even choose a “winner” for each category. I thought the best thing to do, then, would be to compare across many of the variables people look for in a destination casino resort. It has a number of casinos within a 20-ish mile radius of the town, but for the most Vegas-like experience there is something special about a duo of casinos from two national chains with resorts right on the lakefront: the Golden Nugget Lake Charles and Pinnacle’s L’Auberge Lake Charles. However, the casinos that seem to draw the most business and definitely the most Vegas-like action are found in a medium-sized industrial community almost exactly halfway between Houston and New Orleans right off Interstate 10: Lake Charles, Louisiana. There are some racinos (race track + casino) and even a land-based casino in New Orleans. Since Texas does not have legalized Class III gaming (aka traditional casino gambling), Southwest Louisiana offers the closest “locals” casino for someone in my locale. Lake Charles: the next generation of destination gambling? I live in Houston, Texas.
