Recent Grand Sierra Casino Review: "we have stayed at the property where Grand Sierra Resort is located through the last three owners. At least 6 times or more we have visited this site. We particularly liked Grand Sierra the best. They were very accommodating to a request I had. The staff is super friendly and very professional. We plan to return in November on Thanksgiving Weekend to see Terry Fator in concert and enjoy the Grand Sierra again. Our grandson and his new bride live in Reno and we visit at least twice a year, so we will return to the Grand Sierra again."
