Reviewing Canada’s Most Luxurious Casino Resorts

If you’re into casinos and luxury in particular, you need to visit Canada. We’ve covered certain countries already on Luxuria Lifestyle (such as France, Macau and New Zealand) but never Canada. So it was time to turn our eyes towards one of the leaders in luxury iGaming. You often hear about Las Vegas, but Canada is nothing to shake a stick at. Some of the casinos you’ll find there will leave you with memories you’ll never forget. There are some breathtaking casinos in Canada and we’ll go through them one by one.

1. Casino de Montréal (Montreal, Quebec)

Casino de Montréal is the crown jewel among Canadian casinos. It’s located on the beautiful Île Notre-Dame and the whole casino is an architectural masterpiece. It is housed in a former Expo 67 pavilion, and its design features include a striking combination of glass and light that creates a breathtaking atmosphere.

What Makes It Stand Out:

Size and Variety: Casino de Montréal is an enormous casino with over 3,000 slot machines and 100+ table games. The variety of games is unparalleled. You’ll often see recreational players that have never been to a casino before as well as high rollers and sharks on the tables.

Dining Excellence: The casino is well known for its gourmet dining. L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon, one of the finest restaurants in Montreal, is located within the casino and offers an exquisite menu created by Michelin-starred chef Joël Robuchon. You also have Le Montréal. A restaurant that provides a panoramic view of the city. And Pavillon 67, known for its luxurious buffet. All three restaurants have top reviews on Yelp, and other travel review sites.

Entertainment and Ambiance: The casino regularly hosts live performances that create a lively and colourful experience in the casino. You have everything from concerts to comedy shows that you can watch if you want to take a break from the Roulette tables. The combination of luxury, entertainment, and fine dining makes Casino de Montréal a must-visit and a luxurious casino experience you’ll never forget.

2. Caesars Windsor Hotel & Casino (Windsor, Ontario)

Another symbol of luxury is Ontario’s Caesars Windsor Hotel & Casino. This casino is situated along the Detroit River and offers stunning views of the riverfront and the city skyline. The casino is part of the Caesars brand so you can be sure you’ll get a luxurious experience.

What Makes It Stand Out:

Luxurious Accommodations: Caesars Windsor features over 700 luxurious rooms and suites. These are all modern, elegant and most importantly, comfortable. You can choose from standard rooms to premium suites, each offering plush bedding, modern amenities, and breathtaking views of the city and river.

Gaming Experience: The casino floor is huge. Not as big as Casino de Montréal’s, but you’ll find more than 2,300 slot machines and 85 table games. You have all the popular table games like roulette, blackjack, poker, and baccarat. They also have a ‘High Limit area’ where the high rollers hang out.

Entertainment Hub: Caesars Windsor features a major entertainment venue called The Colosseum, where numerous celebrities and world-class performers have entertained audiences. Acts like Patti LaBelle, Sarah McLachlan, and Jay Leno have graced its stage.

Fine Dining and Nightlife: You also have a wide variety of luxurious dining options. For example, Nero’s Steakhouse that’s known for its premium cuts of beef and seafood. And for a more casual experience, you can visit the Legends Sports Bar where you can enjoy a meal while watching live sports. So there’s something for everyone in this casino. But most importantly, it’s luxurious. Very luxurious!

3. River Rock Casino Resort (Richmond, British Columbia)

River Rock Casino Resort located just outside Vancouver in the city of Richmond is the largest casino in British Columbia. This AAA Four-Diamond resort is more than just a casino; it’s a full-fledged luxury destination with a marina, a theatre, and fine dining and accommodation options.

What Makes It Stand Out:

Luxury Accommodations: River Rock Casino Resort offers over 200 luxurious suites with stunning views of the Fraser River. The accommodations are spacious and feature high-end furnishings. The luxury factor is very high.

Gaming Variety: River Rock’s gaming floor isn’t as big as the other two casinos we’ve mentioned so far, but it’s still huge. You have over 1,000 slot machines, a dedicated poker room, and well over 100 table games. The casino is particularly known for its poker tournaments that attract players from all over the world.

Dining Excellence: Dining at River Rock is a must! This casino features some of the best restaurants we’ve ever visited, period. If you’re into luxury, you’ve probably heard of Tramonto. If not, this is an award-winning restaurant that serves Italian cuisine with a Pacific Northwest twist. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience that can’t be described in words. Don’t miss it, whatever you do.

Entertainment and Amenities: The resort includes a 1,000-seat show theatre that hosts concerts, comedy shows, and other performances. You can also unwind at the resort’s full-service spa or take a stroll along the marina, so you have both relaxation and excitement awaiting you here.

4. Casino Rama Resort (Orillia, Ontario)

Casino Rama Resort nestled in the heart of Ontario’s Lake Country offers a one-of-a-kind blend of luxury and nature. You get both a mental reset and a top-tier casino in one.

What Makes It Stand Out:

Rustic Luxury: The resort’s design incorporates elements of the surrounding natural landscape, with interiors featuring wood and stone accents that create a warm and unique atmosphere.

Extensive Gaming Options: The casino offers over 2,500 slot machines and 100+ gaming tables, including a dedicated poker room. What sets Casino Rama apart is its top-notch service. The staff is wonderful and extremely professional here. And we are not alone in thinking that, a lot of visitors say the same thing.

Culinary Diversity: Casino Rama also offers a unique dining experience. You have St. Germain’s Steakhouse which is one of their standout restaurants with its wonderful cuts of beef and extensive wine list. You also have Cedar, a luxurious restaurant that offers a variety of international dishes, and The Willow which offers the finest selection of Asian cuisine.

Entertainment and Relaxation: Casino Rama also offers an entertainment centre like the other casinos we mentioned here. You have a 5,000-seat entertainment centre that hosts concerts, comedy shows, sports events and more. The resort also features a full-service spa so you can relax in between your poker sessions.

5. Fallsview Casino Resort (Niagara Falls, Ontario)

Last but not least we have the Fallsview Casino Resort. This beauty is situated over Niagara Falls and offers a gaming experience like no other. Not only is this casino luxurious, but it also offers breathtaking views unlike any other casino.

What Makes It Stand Out:

Spectacular Views: Fallsview Casino Resort offers some of the best views in Niagara Falls. The views are seriously indescribable. If you’re lucky enough to have a room that overlooks the falls, you’ll likely stay up all night and watch the falls in awe. If not, no worries, there are several restaurants here that overlook the falls so you can still enjoy the scenery while you’re dining.

World-Class Gaming: The casino offers over 3,000 slots and 130 gaming tables. You have blackjack, roulette, poker, baccarat, and whatnot. The gaming floors here make you feel alive in a unique way no other casino can. Again, maybe it’s because of the falls.

Dining with a View: Dining at Fallsview is an experience in itself. The resort offers several restaurants with floor-to-ceiling windows that provide panoramic views of the falls. Regardless of which restaurant you choose here, it’s sure to leave a lifelong memory with you.

Entertainment and Shopping: Fallsview Casino Resort is also a major entertainment venue, with its Avalon Theatre hosting top-tier performances. The resort also features an indoor shopping mall, offering everything from luxury goods to souvenirs.

Luxury Online Casinos in Canada

The world of luxury casino gaming has expanded beyond physical locations, allowing players to experience high-end entertainment from their own homes. For example, the renowned Las Vegas Caesars brand now offers an online casino in Ontario where players can indulge in lavish entertainment without stepping foot outside. Caesars Palace Online Casino brings the glitz and glamour of its iconic resort to the digital realm, providing a vast array of gaming options.

According to this article from Dana Nikolic, in-home luxury iGaming can also be experienced at some select Casino Rewards brands that emulate the “Vegas Luxury” genre. Examples include one brand fittingly named “Luxury Casino” and another called “Villento”.

Conclusion

Canada’s luxurious casinos offer more than just gaming; they provide a complete entertainment experience, blending high-stakes excitement with fine dining, world-class entertainment, and opulent accommodations. Each of these casinos stands out for its unique features, whether it’s the stunning architecture of Casino de Montréal, the scenic views at Fallsview Casino Resort, or the rock-and-roll vibe at Hard Rock Casino Vancouver. So if you’re looking for a nice blend of luxury and excitement, make sure to visit at least one of these casinos.
