1882 reviews of South Point Hotel, Casino & Spa 'This hotel is surpisingly nice and new, but far from the strip (10 minute drive). Other than location, I would HIGHLY recommend this hotel for familes as there is a bowling alley, an arcade, and a decent pool. The room is very clean and bigger than average. Bathroom is decent, and beds as well. Many South Point Hotel coupons and promo codes for 2021 are at PromosGo.com. Now get the latest and best coupon codes for South Point Hotel, America.
