The Golden Gate Hotel & Casino is located at One Fremont Street in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States.

[3][7] In December 1905, plans were underway for a two-story retail and apartment building, to be constructed adjacent to the Hotel Nevada.

[9] Miller planned for the hotel to be modern, with amenities that included heating, electricity, and a telephone system.

[13] The hotel rooms measured 10 feet square, cost $1 per day, and were referred to by a local newspaper as "first class".

[4] By March 1918, Miller was considering a large addition to the hotel that would consist of reinforced concrete and would include 40 feet of frontage along Fremont Street.

[15] The hotel gained additional popularity beginning in 1925, when city officials had Fremont Street paved.

[4][11][1] In July 1955, Abe Miller – the property's longtime operator[17] and the son of John F. Miller[2] – was approved for plans to lease the Sal Sagev's ground floor to a 22-man group, which would sublease the floor for $25,000 per month to eight Italian-American men, including: Italo Ghelfi, Robert Picardo, Al Durante, Leo Massaro, Dan Fiorito and Tiny Naylor,[18] nearly all of them from Oakland, California.

The eight men planned to open the 9,500-square-foot[19] Golden Gate casino on the ground floor of the Sal Sagev.

[21] In February 1957, John F. Miller died during a nap at his apartment, located within the Sal Sagev hotel.

[27][28] Ghelfi's family purchased the property from the partnership in 1990, and removed the metal-screen façade that had earlier been applied to the structure.

In March 2008, Brandenberg sold a 50% interest in the property to Desert Rock Enterprises, the investment company of Derek and Greg Stevens, who also owned the Las Vegas 51s baseball team and a 19% stake in the Riviera casino.

[32] With new money infused by the Stevens, the Golden Gate undertook casino upgrades and hotel room renovations.

[33] In 2010, a Du-par's restaurant opened inside the Golden Gate, replacing the Bay City Diner.

The $12 million renovation includes a 35,000-square-foot, five-story hotel tower with 14 new suites and two penthouses, a new porte cochere, a new check-in and slot club desks, an expansion of the casino floor and a new high limit gaming area.

[citation needed][37] On February 7, 2017, the Du-par's restaurant closed due to financial reasons, as it had been struggling with lease payments.

In 2019, with the closure of the privately owned Du-par's restaurant, Golden Gate discontinued serving its shrimp cocktail.
