What’s included with your room and what costs extra
Your nightly room rate at Circus Circus Hotel, Casino & Theme Park covers the guest room itself (with standard in-room amenities) but does not include meals or many on-site services. A mandatory daily resort fee adds included items (in-room Wi‑Fi, local calls, fitness access for guests 18+, and boarding-pass printing); expect separate charges for dining, some parking options, incidentals, pet fees (where allowed) and certain activities.

Pets, smoking and other possible extra fees
Pet policies are reported inconsistently across public listings. Some sources list select West Tower dog-friendly rooms (typically with a nightly pet fee and limits), while other official feeds state pets are not allowed. If you plan to travel with a pet, confirm the hotel's current policy and any pet fee directly with the property before booking.
Smoking (including e‑cigarettes and marijuana) is prohibited in most guest rooms; a large cleaning fee is charged if guests smoke in a non-smoking room. Expect additional charges for services such as spa/salon treatments, cabana rentals, or room-service delivery where available.
- Dog-friendly rooms are marketed in parts of the West Tower; verify rules and any nightly pet fee with the hotel.

- Salon treatments (massage, facials, nails) are available at The Salon for separate fees.
