John F. Miller initially opened a temporary tent hotel – the Miller Hotel – on the property in 1905, while he planned to construct Hotel Nevada, a permanent hotel structure. The first record of Hotel Nevada being open is a blurb in Las Vegas Age on January 13, 1906. A casino operated within the hotel until a statewide gambling ban took effect in 1909. In 1931, the property was expanded and renamed as Sal Sagev ("Las Vegas" spelled backwards). In 1955, Golden Gate Casino, a separate business, opened on the ground floor of the hotel. The entire property was renamed as the Golden Gate Hotel and Casino in 1974 after the casino bought the hotel. The property has been a hotel since 1905, the oldest in Las Vegas. It has been a consistently operating hotel & casino since 1955.
