Four hotels in this category
Full-service hotels where a gaming floor is one feature alongside dining, shows and views.
Montreal, Canada
Two pavilions from Expo 67 still stand on Île Notre-Dame, and this property now occupies them. It is a short trip from downtown Montreal, across the St Lawrence.
Most of the building is given to restaurants with views of the city, bars and a performance stage. The paths of Parc Jean-Drapeau start right outside. The gaming floor is one part of the property, and the islands themselves are a large part of why people come.
Niagara Falls, Canada
Rooms on the right side face the Horseshoe Falls directly. Fallsview's hotel tower stands on the escarpment above the river, and for many guests the window is the main attraction.
Opened in 2004, the resort is planned for stays longer than a single night. It has a spa, many restaurants, a shopping arcade and the Avalon Ballroom Theatre for touring acts. The casino is one level of a very large hotel.
Richmond, Canada
River Rock sits on the Fraser River in Richmond, a few minutes from Vancouver International Airport. A Canada Line station nearby goes straight into downtown Vancouver.
The hotel has suites, an indoor pool and a marina on the river, plus a theatre for touring shows. Gaming takes up its own wing. Many guests come for simpler reasons: a comfortable bed near the airport and an easy train into the city.
Rama, Canada
Casino Rama Resort stands on the lands of the Chippewas of Rama First Nation, near Orillia and the shore of Lake Couchiching. Toronto is about ninety minutes to the south.
The resort is built around a hotel tower with a spa, several restaurants and an entertainment centre that hosts touring performers. The gaming floor is part of the complex. Many guests also use it as a base for the lakes and walking trails nearby.
