It was late afternoon and I was very tired. Too tired to continue on to my final destination, St. George, Utah. I had no idea of where to stay in Boulder City but El Rancho Boulder Motel was an excellent choice. Not fancy but clean and quiet. Right on the highway through town and not far from the intersection to the interstate. Friendly staff. I was traveling alone and the staff considerately gave me the room closest to the office on the first floor.

The El Rancho was a great spot to recharge for our family of 5 after a long day in the car! Spotless room, great retro design touches and a pool to enjoy. No meals available, but an equally fantastic diner just a few doors down. Thanks El Rancho.

We go as a group to Lake Mead each summer and stay in the quaint town of Bolder. We were staying at a motel down the street but after the last hassles we moved to the El Rancho, we usually have 4 boats in tow so parking is important and it was not a problem. The rooms are in good condition, the central air is a real plus, no noisy window rattlers as most places have. They also have a extra "boaters" ice machine (it does run out early). The staff is friendly and helpfull.

Stayed here for our trip to Hoover Dam (wanted to keep the kids out of Sin City)... very clean and nice . good deal for the money .. big pool for the kids ..Beds were a little worn and could use replacement but over all ok... the only downside is that Boulder City is a little lite on Dinner spots (lots of breakfast and lunch..

BTW - BEST Place to Souvenirs is the Dead Cow Shop on the Hoover Dam end of town .. he other places (you come to first on the way into town were overpriced rip off joints ..;)
