You could really tell that the hotel staff have pride in their work! Things were clean and presentable. It was the most "Nevada" (minus Vegas) place I've seen in a while, and I truly mean that as a compliment!

Love the Prospector Hotel & Casino, our go to place when we travel to Ely NV. The staff and everyone are so friendly and will go out of the way for whatever you need! Rooms are very rustic, county feel and love the picture in the hallway of what Ely once was! Highly recommend staying at the Prospector even if just passing through!

Very nice staff and fun eclectic vibe. The Mexican restaurant inside was excellent. The only con was how smoky the small casino was. Very noticeable through Lobby and casino. We will look at other sleep accommodations next visit but still come to the restaurant. The fried ice cream was almost too pretty to eat
