Again, I was brought along with family a few times.

I am a non-gambler. I cannot watch as someone feeds a $20 into a slot machine. Part of me dies inside. LOL

Aside from that, this casino was very clean, very modern and welcoming. ATMs are ample, as are different slots and other casino games. Very spacious, and at times, really dead. This is good if you want to be left alone to gamble. Bad for odds of hitting a jackpot though - I noticed that bells rang more the more people were in the casino. (No surprise)

NO SMOKING, thank God.

So from a gambler's perspective, 4/5
From a non-gambler's perspective, this is the House of Satan. Run... RUN! 1/5

I highly suggest anyone that comes here more than once or even goes to Casino Niagara (becuase they are partners) to get a Players Advantage Card. Using it at the tabls and slots, does reap it's rewards, and even if it's small, accumlation might become worth it.

The casino has higher minimum bets than others, but it's sitll quite good. I came on a Sunday, and I did see som $5-15 minimum bets.
Games are upto date.
Variety of different foods to eat, and a good food court
I like the terrace at the back to walk and see the falls from a different height.

My mom has gotten some free rooms from going there often, and they are really nice.

The biggest disappointment is the Theatre to watch concerts in (http://www.yelp.ca/biz...)

However, I'd go to Casino Niagara instead of coming here...

When I realized there was a casino in the Niagara Falls area, I knew I had to stop by. Finally got the chance to do so. I head straight to the craps and roulette table where there's some very light action going, but this is on a Thursday afternoon. At the time the casino was exchanging at par $1 CAD to $1 USD, but you still had to go to the cashiers to use Canadian money. I only lost 1 Jackson...or in this case 1 Queen Elizabeth II. Real darn shame I could stay for more...and like all good casinos the drinks were free so what the heck...totally worth a visit.

MY DIANNETTE and I are NOT gamblers. However, the one of the best dining experiences in Ontario was right here in the Casino. For $20.00pp you get an all you can eat buffet. The food was delicious and NO KIDS allowed. The was a plus since you have to deal with the "screaming banshees" all day long at the attractions.....LOLOLOLOL.... (I LOVE KIDS).... I loved the food and the atmosphere. The desserts were AWESOME... FAT KID in me wakes up here.

Came here because it was close to the Skylon Tower, and I'm glad I did. For starters, I was allowed to bring my backpack into the casino because I didn't bring anything that wasn't allowed.

The casino has lots of slots, table games and video poker. Looks like most casinos in Vegas. For some reason I was feeling good about this place.

Back up to 1999 when I went to Montreal, Quebec, Canada and ended up having 200+ dollars in Canadian money. Well, I FINALLY used this money to pay for admissions, food and souvenirs in Canada. I also used some of this money to play video poker and drink a few tall sized Molsons!

I made 75.00 in Canadian money last just over two hours of video poker. Didn't win big but it was a lot of fun. Very cool. The people who work here friendly and made sure their customers were having a good time.

This is not Vegas, but close enough, and way better than that joke of a casino in Niagara Falls, New York. If you like gaming, then consider this a must do!

This is the place to be seen.

The casino itself it's visually appealing.  Little boutiques before you enter for the fun and games.  I find the casino itself alittle overcrowded and for the cheapo like me ..there aren't a lot of penny machines haha.
(Most of them have been moved to the old casino near Clifton Hill).

I enojoy going there mainly for the entertainment on a Sat night at the bar.  It's hit and miss with the bands but most of the time there are good acts.  If you're lucky you can get a table and there is ALWAYS this one bald man who's dancing on the dancefloor who is entertaining - he just brings alittle something to that bar haha.

The shows that are available outside the casino are good too.  Of course it depends when exactly you go because there are different celebrities all the time.

I was so excited to head to Fallsview for a little bit of Vegas in Niagara.  Someone else should build another casino in Niagara!  It was so extremely busy at this place - even though we were there during "low season."  This place is FILLED with slot machines, and they're all taken by baby boomers with greedy-filled eyes.  There are a few table games, which are packed too!  I was expecting a lot from this casino but was very underwhelmed.  It's not that big, it's too packed to gamble, and although the buffet was only $20pp, there were fruit flies flying all around our table and the selection is not that great.  The hotel lobby looked really nice when we passed by so a stay there could be nice.  The stores were blah - go to Toronto instead.  However, I did see more people than often hitting jackpots and winning stacks of bills!

This is Casino that is much fun, elegant, and well designed. If you are slot player they have relatively decent comps, including meals, discounted or free hotels (how much do you play?), and countless promotions.

They have a great line-up of B-list entertainers, some of which were A-list in the 70's and 80's. It is a great place to spend an evening, but be aware that it is really crowded on week-ends.

You can always detour and see the Niagara Falls (not the souvenir shops, the FALLS). Always a great powerful sight to behold.

Good luck!

Like a little bit of Vegas in Ontario. The nights are pretty busy, and it's generally a younger crowd than casino Rama

I've been to Las Vegas, Atlantic City, and Mohegan Sun, so this one wasn't all that great. On the plus side, it wasn't too crowded.

Such a fun time :) It reminded me of a modest Vegas hotel. It has shopping, restaurants, a night club and a theatre. I was there when Sindbad performed and it was a hilarious performance!  We had the VIP seating area and the food and drinks were amazing!!!  The beds are uber comfy and the view of the falls was incredible!!!

If you ever venture up to Niagara Falls area, a visit to one of the two casinos on the Canadian side is a must! Both casinos, the old and this one, the newest are pretty good. They are similar, although this one has a massive hotel and shopping area and quite frankly is nicer and larger. The location is prime, towering on the hill above the falls and has a great view from the grounds. The outside is a huge towering building with a huge parking area garage and a mall complex and restaurant area. The interior is really nice, with marble floors, carpets and a food court area and shopping area. The place is new and at this point doesnt have enough restaurants and stores in it yet, but over time I'm sure it will. Bring your license or ID because you will need it to enter the casino portion since they check every person entering any entrance. the casino part is not large but big enough, but totally filled with slots. It almost seemed like it was all slots with a smaller part of being table games. I would say there was about 10 blackjack tables, 5 roulette tables, a casino war table, and a few other games. There is also a good size poker room with about 15 tables with ongoing games. There are a few bars and lounges and then a concert hall area. The interior ceilings are all painted with murals and then the hotel is right next to the casino. Aside from having very few tables games, this place gets pretty packed. Although it is nicer than the older casino down the street, the older one seemed to have more table games and the limits were less on the tables. Check them both out since they both are worth it!
