British writer John Le Carré arguably had as much impact on the perception of spying as Fleming, but with a depiction of it that was quieter and closer to the bone. One British author tilted the image of espionage in this moodier direction more than any other. – The rebel spy who's the anti-James Bond On the other, it is something far less alluring a grittier yet bureaucratic world found in novels by the likes of Graham Greene and Len Deighton, films like Anthony Asquith's Orders to Kill (1958), and television series such as James Mitchell's Callan (1967-72) and Ian Mackintosh's The Sandbaggers (1978-80). On the one hand, it's seen as a glamorous, adventurous spectacle, a vision emerging largely from author Ian Fleming and his most famous creation, James Bond, who first appeared in the 1953 novel Casino Royale. I would stay here again.Espionage has a split personality in British culture. We didn't use the pool so I can't comment on that. Although we flew to LV we did notice their was covered parking for hotel guests. For those visiting Vegas on a budget this is a great place to stay. The High Roller was a short stroll away as were many other restaurants and bars. The hotel is between Harrah's and the Venetian with Caesar's and the Mirage directly across the street. There's a Walgreen's on the property so we were able to buy bottled water and snacks to keep in the fridge. We enjoyed the added bonus of having a small refrigerator and Keurig coffee machine in the room so we were able to have coffee before venturing out. Our room wasn't huge but it was clean, comfortable and cool. You couldn't ask for a better location on the Strip, no resort fee, free covered parking and close to everything. We booked Casino Royale based on reviews and the price. In the past we've stayed at the Golden Nugget, Main Street Station, Luxor, and the Venetian. My husband and I stayed at the Best Western Casino Royale the first full week of June as we were attending a conference in LV and it was the first time we stayed at this hotel.
