What guests think

At The New Pioneer, travelers describe a budget, motel‑style riverfront stay with convenient parking by the rooms, friendly staff, a basic casino, and popular pool, hot tub, and beach access, alongside dated buildings and inconsistent upkeep.

Cleanliness and maintenance are mixed, with recurring reports of dirty floors, bathroom issues, bugs, and smoke smells, but many guests also receive clean rooms and comfortable beds. Rooms are basic and often lack in-room amenities like fridges, microwaves, coffee makers, and hairdryers unless requested; thin walls and noise from neighbors are common, though some units have newer flooring and river views. Service feedback ranges from welcoming, helpful teams to slow check-in and strict security or policy enforcement; dining at Bumbleberry Flats and the pizzeria draws repeated praise, though options and prices can be hit or miss. Expect a simple, affordable riverside stay with trade-offs in noise and upkeep.

We pulled into the parking lot Thursday afternoon only to find out they were repaving the whole lot and we had to park far away from our room and carry our luggage across the parking lot to the next building cause everything was blocked off! We had no notification that the parking lot was being repaved and the repaving started early in the morning into the early evening. It was NOT a pleasant stay at all! We asked for a luggage cart to tole 3 people’s luggage’s and bags and a n ice chest, but was told someone is using it as they not had one. 2 hours later we were told the luggage cart was back, only because my husband was told when he went to the front desk to ask for something! The notices on the building said the parking lots would done on Saturday, August 16 and it was not done and we had to park a mile away from our room when we got back Saturday evening. We had to lug our luggage to our vehicle when we left Sunday morning as the parking lot in front of our room was blocked off because it wasn’t finished. And the yellow parking logs were n the middle of the sidewalks and I tripped over them twice………gouging my foot on one of the rebarab spikes sticking out! Our sink was clogged, the electric outlets weren’t working as the plugs would not stay in and when I booked the room a couple months ago, I booked it for 3 people and we had to go to the front desk for more towels! The floors in our rooms were not clean……it was a horrible stay in our room!

Nice staff. Elevator was not usable when we stayed so we had to carry our luggages up and down the stairs, not so ideal with 2 littles. Pool was supposed to be heated but was still a bit cold. Has an all you can eat and drink (mimosa) in the casino. Didnt get to check out the “beach” as there were some type of flies that swarm the hotel surroundings but seems like they go away around 0900ish? Overall, you get what you pay for, would stay again for the unlimited mimosa at bumbleberry flats.

This is an extension of my last review thanking Michael, coco, Colleen and the front desk for their contributions to my lovely stay. Thank you to the river front ground crew for making my special spot so beautiful and the pool staff for the always sparkling and warm pools such a great retreat spot.

The floor was extremely dirty. Counters were not clean. There were tiny bugs all around the room on the curtains right by our bed. We had an extremely long drive so I took it upon myself to clean and sanitize the room. There is probably stains all over the curtains from me killing these small bugs. Will not return, that’s for sure.

I was supposed to stay 2 nights and after the first night I left. It was not a good experience, I would not recommend to anyone nor will i stay there again.

Reception was great and what the room had was good. However the floor was not clean but the worst for us is the lack of sound proofing with the adjoining room and outside. You could here the tv until early hours, the excited owners letting the dog (didn’t here the dog once) back in, in the middle of the night and people coming back to their rooms at all hours. Quite a disturbed nights sleep

The room was clean and comfortable. My biggest complaint is that the walls are thin with no insulation. I can hear everything people are saying in the adjacent room. I could hear all the details of their personal life and I didn't even have my head to the wall. I was just sitting on the sofa reading. They kept the TV on the whole night. I couldn't get any sleep until they checked out.

Staff was super friendly.. from checkin, to bar staff, to house keeping. The room was a bit worn looking (says renovated but didnt really see that way… maybe we got an older room not reno yet), but the bed was comfy and everything was clean. We got a room with a king bed and it was very spacious. Next time, would probably check out a room that over looks the water (ours faced the parking lot). If you are looking for something for the room, you might just need to ask. They didn’t have a blow dryer in the room but mentioned this and they had one at the front desk. They did not have a microwave, fridge or coffee maker … which was a bummer (especially the coffee).. we didn’t ask about those but maybe they have rooms with that. For the price, you really can’t beat it on the strip. Bumbleberry is fantastic!!!

We were very disappointed by the lack of kindness from the front desk staff the morning of Sept 14, the day of our check out. We experienced an issue with getting our boat out of the Lake Mohave, we had to be towed out. After dealing with this issue for 3 hours we rushed back to the hotel to eat breakfast and head home. Check out was in 45 minutes and the line to the buffet was going to be 20 minutes until we got a table. We walked over and asked the front desk if we could extend our check out for just 30 minutes longer. We had our four legged family member in the room. We were told absolutely no, against their policy cannot do it, nothing we can do. This was a Sunday morning!! There is no way that hotel was going to be sold out on a Sunday that they could give a a 30 minute window??!! We’ve stayed at the hotel since 2010 because they are dog friendly. That’s 15 years of us being loyal customers right out the door. Shocked and dismayed.

I had stayed at The Pioneer years. What a difference a few years makes! The room was upgraded and no longer smelled like smoke. They give you wristbands for the pool and beach so they aren't overcrowded with people not officially staying there. We got a room right on the River Walk at a great price. This is my husband's and I new favorite hotel! We can't wait to return.

The New Pioneer has been my go-to hotel in Laughlin for many years. It's always had the friendliest and most welcoming staff in all of Laughlin. The rooms have always been clean and spacious, with comfortable beds and furniture (they're even better now after the recent remodel). I like the central location too. Everywhere on the Laughlin Strip is within walking distance (even Harrah's). If I could give it ten stars I would.

Pros: NO resort or parking fee Samuel Front Desk Supervisor is AMAZING!WONDERFUL CUSTOMER SERVICE River Rick's Pizza ★★★★★ Bumbleberry Flats ★★★★★ Casino is clean, bathrooms. were clean,staff was great Cons: when its full of guests parking is a challenge if you want to get anywhere near your room. Guests not respecting property rules about ice machines and filling up ice chests. Then no ice. Speaking of which all machines are on 1st floor breezeways.so very inconvenient for 2nd and 3rd floor guests. Although the 3 floor portion has an elevator still inconvenient. Refrigerator are upon request and no coffee pot. Our rooms had no dresser.We had adjoining rooms which was nice.The rooms clean 3★.1 room had a frig that was still there great AC but problem with plumbing (when i made registration aware of this they had 3 people at the room in a few minutes)other room was a corner room so that may be why although AC was as low as possible the room was maybe 25°less than ambient. The beds are REALLY soft not very firm. *The beach is not maintained by pioneer. And the company that does it ,well they don't! Although 3 huge barrels are placed for trash people believe its not their job to clean up after themselves! The place needs a few beach monitors. And it was jammed packed with people. Overall I enjoy the Pioneer its a nothing fancy hotel.
