Sam's Town Las Vegas is a hotel and casino located in Sunrise Manor, Nevada on the corner of Flamingo Road and Boulder Highway. It is one of the casinos owned and operated by Boyd Gaming. It is built on 13 acres (5.3 ha) and it includes two RV parks.

One of the unique features of this hotel is "Mystic Falls", a large glass-roofed atrium with tall live trees, cobblestone paths, and a rock waterfall in the center where a laser show is performed daily at different times.

It was the host hotel for the Sam's Town 300, a NASCAR race sponsored by Sam's Town. It was also the Las Vegas host hotel for the Silver State Classic Challenge race.

The original Sam's Town opened on April 1, 1979 and it was one of the first locals casinos to open in the Las Vegas Valley.

From 1980 to 1999 the studios of Nevada Public Radio were located in a separate building on the property.

The 2006 album Sam's Town by The Killers was named after the casino.
