The Wild Wild West casino is owned and operated by Station Casinos and is located on Tropicana Avenue just west of I-15 in Las Vegas, Nevada. While the casino and adjoining 266 room hotel are rather small, it has functioned as a trucker motel for many years since it has extensive parking for trucks. While the casino and hotel are rather small, the site is over 50 acres in size.
The Wild Wild West Truck Plaza is located in the parking area and provides services common to a truck stop.
History
Started out as the King 8 Hotel.
Renamed, after Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide sold its partial ownership in April, 1998, to the Wild Wild West Gambling Hall & Hotel.
In 2005 Station Casinos started purchasing land next to the property it already owned. While no specific plans have been announced, it is widly expected that this move means that a major redevelopment is planned at this location.
