The historic Western Hotel & Bingo Parlor might finally have a new owner.

After being put up for sale in March 2024, an update was given about the long-closed property owned by the Tony Hsieh estate during the Las Vegas City Council meeting on Wednesday. According to a representative present at the meeting, they have a purchase and sale agreement with a potential buyer.

Representatives from the Hsieh estate were present at city council to ask for their 14th extension of time on a tavern license for the property.

While not “in a position to disclose” the potential buyer, the estate said they are known for “renovating properties and bringing them back to their glory days.”
