For a small, boutique hotel, The Cromwell has made some big moves recently.<\/p>\n
To start, The Cromwell unveiled a new snack bar, Eatwell.<\/p>\n
Eatwell at Cromwell. If you want to self-park, it’ll have to be at the Flamingowell.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Eatwell is open 24 hours a day, and has a variety of grab-and-go goodies like sandwiches, pastries, salads and pizzas.<\/p>\n
We went for a sandwich, mainly because sandwiches are a metaphor for love. Or something.<\/p>\n
One cannot live by cavorting alone, even in Vegas.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
We’re pleased to report the food quality is solid at Eatwell, and the prices are reasonable.<\/p>\n
Here’s a peek at the Eatwell menu.<\/p>\n
If you actually read the “Healthy Alternatives” section, we can’t be friends.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
We have no idea what these things on the ceiling are, but we are a blog, not a snack bar design firm.<\/p>\n
We’re pretty sure you can become pregnant just walking under these.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Caffeine fans will rejoice in the knowledge Eatwell offers a full selection of Starbucks coffees.<\/p>\n
Here’s a gratuitous photo of some cookies.<\/p>\n
Don’t think of them as cookies. Think of them as fuel for your bad Las Vegas decisions.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
The Cromwell has also opened a new race and sports book.<\/p>\n
We have never personally understood why they’re called race and sports books. A race is a sport. If you’re going to call it a race and sports book, you could just as easily call it a game and sports book, or possibly a match and sports book.<\/p>\n
It’s not the size of the sports book that counts, it’s whether you cover the spread.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
The new sports book at Cromwell has a tiny footprint, but sports books aren’t huge moneymakers for casinos, so the size is proportionate given the limited footprint of the resort.<\/p>\n
The Cromwell used to be Bill’s Gamblin’ Hall & Saloon, and before that it was Barbary Coast and Empey’s Desert Villa. Prior to that, it was a small collection of tumbleweeds.<\/p>\n
The new sports book can accommodate about 50 people or 75 if they all inhale at the same time.<\/p>\n
The Cromwell sports book boasts a 32-foot-long, nine-foot-tall LED video wall.<\/p>\n
Beyond these sweet new amenities, The Cromwell has made a serious play to attract gamblers.<\/p>\n
Among the new offerings is a single zero roulette table. Single zero roulette, also known as “European roulette,” is often reserved for high limit rooms, but Cromwell has a table on its main casino floor.<\/p>\n
Because photos aren’t allowed at live games, we won’t be able to share the photo below.<\/p>\n
The house edge in a single zero roulette game is 2.7%. With two zeros, it’s 5.26%.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
Unlike double zero roulette games, the minimum bet on the single zero game is $25. Better odds, higher minimums. In Vegas, that’s a thing.<\/p>\n
