The Wild Wild West casino is owned and operated by Station Casinos and is located on Tropicana Avenue just west of I-15 in Las Vegas, Nevada, in the United States. While the casino and adjoining 262 room hotel are rather small, it has functioned as a trucker motel for many years since it has extensive parking for trucks, and the site is over 50 acres in size.

The Wild Wild West Truck Plaza is located in the parking area and provides services common to a truck stop.

[edit] History

After starting out as the King 8 Hotel, it was renamed the Wild Wild West Gambling Hall & Hotel after Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide sold its partial ownership On July 6, 1998.

In 2005 Station Casinos started purchasing land next to the property it already owned. While no specific plans have been announced, it is widely expected that this move means that a major redevelopment is planned at this location.
