For some reason, all of the towns with top notch motels have at least one named the City Center. Here's one on Fremont Street that is close to the Fremont Street Experience.

 

UPDATE 07/06 : The City Center Motel was replaced with a Day's Inn a couple of years ago. The sign is in now in the sign boneyard. 07-06

To the right... You can't have motels in Vegas without some reference to the city of sin. Well, here's a couple. The Vegas Motel and its still vintage marquee and the Vegas Chalet Motel with its huge downward arrow.

 

UPDATE 05/06 : The sign for the Vegas Chalet Motel is no more and has been gone for several years. 05-06

The Safari Motel features a name that fits in with a city built in the middle of a desert.

(Left) The Desert Hills Motel on Fremont Street features a relatively nondescript, yet classic sign. The sign appears to be a recent replacement.

(Left) The Hialeah Motel proudly proclaims that its has TV. The 1924 appears to be an address, not a vintage date. Unfortunately, like many of the old motel marquee masterpieces along Fremont Street, the neon on this motel sign no longer works.

Another cool sign off Fremont Street is that for the Lucky Lady Motel.
