The Hotel is one of the best in Omaha, offering clean and comfortable rooms and baths at very competitive prices compared to other establishments in the area. Whether you're here to try your luck at the casino or explore downtown Omaha, you'll find great value. Don't miss the all-you-can-eat crab leg buffet offered on weekends!

Brady, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Hotel was good, but don't expect to eat dinner here without a reservation and breakfast at 7AM took over and hour and a half. Hotel bathroom was not clean when we checked in, the housekeeper forgot to get the sink, bathroom counter and mirror. However, housekeeping came right away and cleaned it up. Beds were nice and the gambling was fun. The pool was also great for the kids. This is the better of the two casino in the area by far.
Lacey, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Whatever you do don’t stay on the 2nd floor. It stinks from the smoke in the casino and we had bugs in our room.
Tayler, 3-night trip
