Gamble at the Gorge

It’s possible to visit the Seneca Niagara Casino and Hotel and never roll the dice, cut a deck or pull a slot lever — yet still have a full weekend.
Since the property stands just blocks from New York’s Niagara Falls, visitors can enjoy simply watching the Niagara River thunder over its famous cliffs. That’s if Seneca’s inviting hotel rooms don’t bring out the inner wallflower who wants to watch high-def TV, catch up on Facebook or read a romance novel while lounging on a pillow-top bed.
Want to resist the temptations beyond the guest room door? Relax and recharge with a workout, followed by a Swedish massage, in the full-service spa. Eight dining choices range from the simple to the deliciously complex. Morrie’s Express speeds pizza and deli sandwiches your way, while The Western Door: A Seneca Steakhouse offers beef, lamb and veal in an indulgent variety of cuts and preparations.
After dinner, entertainment beckons at three venues, which bill bands, comics, illusionists and headliners (Kenny G, Aretha Franklin and the guys from Chippendales recently appeared).
And then there’s the gaming. Seneca Niagara Casino houses 4,200 slot machines, more than 100 table games and a live-poker room. Non-smokers will appreciate Turtle Island, a smoke-free casino. If your winnings burn a hole in your pocket, there’s plenty of shopping on site. The Logo Shop features clothing for men, and Sky Boutique has upscale apparel and accessories for women. The Eight Clans Gift shop features Native American art, jewelry and crafts.
