rdf:langString Royal Nevada was a hotel and casino located on the Las Vegas Strip in Winchester, Nevada. It was owned by Frank Fishman, who leased it to various individuals during its brief history. The resort was designed by Paul Revere Williams, and construction began in August 1954. The Royal Nevada opened on April 19, 1955, and was among four Las Vegas resorts to open within a six-week period, at a time when demand had declined for additional hotel rooms. The resort faced numerous financial problems, and was closed and reopened several times. A lack of financing forced the resort to close less than a year after its opening. It was then leased to a group associated with the New Frontier resort, located just south. The hotel was reopened in 1956, followed a year later by the casino. In 1957, the Nevada Gaming Control Board filed an eight-count complaint against the resort, alleging issues such as inadequate finances and card cheating by one of its dealers. The casino closed for the last time on January 30, 1958. Later that year, the hotel-casino was taken over by the operators of the Stardust resort, located directly north. The Royal Nevada was renamed as the Stardust Auditorium, serving as convention space and providing additional rooms for the Stardust. It remained a part of the Stardust until the resort's demolition in 2007.
