We enjoyed our stay at the Harrah's Ak-Chin Hotel and Casino! The room was clean and had a great balcony view. We rented a cabana at the pool which had a nice swim up bar. Although, the pool could have used some maintenance with debris in the water. It was still relaxing and we enjoyed playing games in the casino! Xo -BB

Checked in kinda late around 9pm and it was an easy check in. The room was clean. But the sink water had almost no pressure, so water kept making a mess on the sink when washing our hands. The bed and pillows were comfortable. I was bummed we didn't get to take advantage of the arcades or bowling because they closed at 9pm on Wednesdays. I wanted to extend my stay, but the pricing for an additional night wasn't something I felt smart paying. I guess they were really close to fully booked, so we opted out and went somewhere else which I'm grateful for because I normally bring my pillow everywhere with me but we flew so I didn't have luggage space. I would definitely stay here again and next time book more than one night to be able to check out the pooentertainment center and gamble more.

This was just a 3 star casino. It is a decent place to play, but it definitely lacks that grand, high-end casino vibe you get at bigger resorts. On the plus side, the lady working in the gift shop was super nice and friendly when I stopped in. But as for the gaming itself did not wow me. The slot machines feel a bit old and the floor looks outdated. It's a fine spot to spin a few reels if you're already in the area, but just don't expect anything mind-blowing.

Wolf spider , yes harmless but still not what you want to see in your room

Overall was good Quick check in & check out The bathroom is a big sell with the tub Very relaxing The room overall was a little disappointing for how much it was for 2 nights I had an upgraded room in the cactus tower and the room in my opinion was kinda gross for the cost. Not well kept up for "luxury" I had wolf spiders in my room The tables looked gross and beat up the couch had stains all over it Some broken USB ports The luxury tub accessory handle leaked And didn't stay in the holder correctly The shower seals were coming off door and were black The makeup mirror was about to fall off the wall Room wasn't well taken care of. Needs work Shouldn't be charged well over $200 a night with a "upgrade luxury fee" and see these problems. Need to improve quality of the rooms!

First time at Ak Chin Hotel Casino. Stayed two nights for business. Arrived about 3:00 and was advised about a $35 early check in fee and opted to wait 45 minutes in the lobby. Looked over the Yelp reviews as I was waiting and surprised at the low rating for the hotel casino. Hmmm, wondering if I should have stayed elsewhere? Got registered, found the elevator after wandering around and got to my room. It was clean, comfortable king size bed. Free lower speed internet. Room had all the amenities. No house keeping service when got back to the room. Didn't have any meals at Hotel. Did not gamble in casino. Room rate was reasonable. Space met my needs. Left a tip for housekeeping. Would stay here again.

The famous "grilled loose leaf paper" chicken sliders from Caesar's. (No toppings were altered to take this picture) seriously.

Well Caesars Sportsbook was pretty bad which is unfortunate because we live close enough to go there all the time. We had an extremely underwhelming experience from our server Nita who got our order wrong (fried instead of grilled chicken), and then when we said the new ones that they brought us (after 30 minutes) looked small she said "well that's because they don't have the breading". Ah ok gus, that is true, same way I don't think a grilled chicken breast should resemble a slice of cheese if we're getting technical, 'Nites. She also never said sorry for getting our order wrong or did anything in the way of problem solving. The wings I got were undercooked with zero flavor. They have a lot of work to do all over the place, front of house and in the kitchen to reach minimum dining standards. Attached is a picture of the sliders I had to take home for evidence. Pretty comical. Alternatively Draft Kings sports bar in North Scottsdale has incredible service and amazing food every time I go there. Worth the hour drive in the other direction 100%.

The view poolside from our section of the hotel.

First off, I am not a gambler and we were traveling through from Lake Havasu to Tucson and decided to take our time, hang out a bit in Maricopa, explore and enjoy our drive. So being not a gambler, we used Harrah's as an overnight stay kinda place. My friend who was with me played a bit and he came out ahead, a few hundreds in fact, so that pleased him. As for me, the amenities, the restaurants, the pool and grounds were plenty pleasant and I enjoyed them. The rooms are clean, bed linens and pillowcases felt new, everything had a sense of cleanliness. Our room faced the pool and I enjoyed that, so if I had a recommendation, opt for a poolside view. In the morning, the area had a stench of cow, but that's the area, nothin' to do with the hotel, however, I'm just sayin'.

This place was exactly what we need in an overnight stay. The property is beautiful and clean. The customer service was on point and the whole staff serves kudos. Not one person let us walk by without saying hello or have a good night or have a safe trip or something nice. Our room was 1260 and it was comfortable and beautiful. The pool area is huge and really nice. Water was perfect. I didn't win any money but my room was free so I was all around happy. Didn't try any restaurants as it was late by time we checked in but we willl next time.

This was my first time at this casino. Very nice inside and out I must say. I was here to see my favorite band, Air Supply in concert and also got to attend their soundcheck, Q and A session with Graham and Russell, and their meet and greet afterward. This was also Air Supply's first time at this venue. This venue is big and beautiful and the sound was AMAZEBALLS!!! Of course, I am biased since I love Air Supply so much, but the concert was excellent either way! Now, the security guys who greeted me upon entrance were awesome and very helpful. The ones inside the venue, however, could use some lessons in manners and respect (hence my 4 stars instead of 5). They were rude, snarky, and abrasive to people, although I was glad they took care of the obnoxiously drunk slutty dressed women who were on the left side of the stage trying to hit on Russell and take obnoxious selfies during the concert and also the rude person a few rows behind me who was nonstop using their camera flash and blinding Russell as he was singing. Crowd control was ridiculous at the stage, however. I got squished and slammed into very roughly by fans and came away banged up and bruised pretty good and there's NO need for that whatsoever! Sidenote: Had dinner at the Copper Cactus Grill before the concert. Good eats and friendly service! Decent prices also.

We went into 3 restaurants...none of them would seat us in a booth, because there were only 2 of us. Customers obviously are not important.

Ask the Community - Harrah's Ak-Chin Hotel And Casino

Did this buffet ever reopen?

I was there today and unfortunately no it hasn't reopened.

Do they have bingo?

Yes they do. Here's the link: https://www.caesars.com/harrahs-ak-chin/casino/bingo#.XlBoU2hKikw

Do they have bars on the casino floor? How many restaurants? Lastly do they have those personal video machines that you sit at a bar and play and is there blackjack on it besides just poker and Keno?

Harrah's Ak-Chin do have bars on the casino floor or you can order drinks directly from the machine you are playing. They do have video machines that offer different games including Blackjack.

How much is it to play blackjack?

The least expensive table I have seen at Harrah's Ak-Chin is $5

Staid at Gila River Resorts while in town for a conference being held at their resort. We had a…read moreroom on the top floor. The rooms were nice and clean and well maintained. The bathroom lights above the shower did not work, they would flicker then go off. The tissue box was empty at check in besides the tissue rose made on top. There were issues with the "mini bar" sensor at check in and someone had to come check on it later in the week. We didn't get service on some days of stay even with the "Service Please" Sign on the room door. The pool is open until 10pm, however the pool bar closes at 6pm and they had people exit their cabana rentals at 7pm. The drinks at the bar were severely over priced and mediocre at best. We paid $43 for 2 margaritas at the pool bar that tasted like blended water with a splash of margarita mix. The umbrellas at the pool had to be closed most of the time due to the winds, which also blew all types of debris and trash into the pools causing a bad look. One of our party was double charged at the pool bar, and they expressed that they could not reverse the charge and if they did it would take 7-10 days to return to the card, but refused to give us the extra drink because they couldn't serve more than 2 drinks within 30 minutes to the same person...even though there was 6 of us in the party and she was charged for 3 drinks, twice. Which could have been one per person in our party. The mobile bars within our evening reception drinks were higher priced in there than on the casino floor, so we all left our reception, to get drinks and come back. Drinks were on average $4-8 more than at the bar at the casino. One of the girls in our group personal cards was charged not only for the deposit amount for the stay but then the remainder of the balance for the first night and then again for the rest of her stay, causing her bank account to be nearly cleared out. In which the front desk staff told her there was nothing they could do, and that it would go back to her card Friday at the earliest (this was Tuesday). As we were there on business the rooms were prepaid with CC authorizations on file for the cost of the room rate + resort fees, so she was left with no money to pay for food or anything else for the rest of the week, and they could not provide any help and did not have any managers on property. We were able to track down a manager in a different department who was at least able to get her a food comp to pay for her meal thankfully. We were really excited to stay at Gila River, we had heard many great things about this property and were were unimpressed with the level of guest service.

Came here for a conference. Nothing special, rooms were ok. I wish the food was better, but…read morethat's what you get for mass produced conference food. I don't gamble but the stories I heard were fun. Some wins and some losses amongst the group. The staff was nice enough. Honestly, I just wish the food had been better.

Gila River Resorts & Casinos - Vee Quiva

I used to go to this casino only 15 minutes from my house years before the renovation and I dont…read moreremember the ambience too well but I kinda have a recollection of it being a little dumpy. However back then it had one Cafe if memory serves me right and I could get fish and chips for $5 and no tax. I also think it had smoking which it no longer does. I would slip in later at night for the black jack video game and thought I was so cool trying to count cards. Many years later I started going with my second wife cause she likes to play what she calls "video poker", which is really just slot machines but she is from Oregon so she is weird. They no longer have smoking and due have free soda and coffee which I have my own special tricks to make my own drinks but I wont incriminate myself. We now mainly go for karaoke on Tuesdays and Thursdays which has a largely older and hispanic crowd that we both like. While pretending to not be old and her being of Mexican Origin we blend in well. We also sing some of the more upbeat songs in the place and sing ok so I think we had some youthful energy. Obviously for a casino you want to know what the gambling is like. The slots afe fun and they have some of the latest games as well as video poker for cheap at the bar, craps, blackjack, and roulette. I am sure lots of other games I dont play like Keno. I often joke with her that she steals from the rez and gives to the white man in Vegas because she has turned $20 into $1k and gave it all to the white man on our trips to Nevada. They also have bingo which seems very populR with the lines they have. I play live table craps and its fun but the other players especially regulars seem like pills. A lot of blowing on the dice and a lot of other nonsense that may seem like it works for them, but their attitudes are weird. Had one guy ask me not to stand by him, but im a big guy and didnt care about his voodoo thoughts. I have won quite a bit but have lost enough to not put up with the weird regulars. As for food and drink there are multiple bars and restaurants that all have great service till some crazy lines form on Friday and Saturday nights. My favorite is the tequila bar where they have the best servers especially during Karaoke and we have gotten to know them well. They also have three dance floors and a lot of hot Latinas on Saturday nights that may outshine Westgate as the Scottsdale of the westside for Mexican women. About the dance floors: the one in the back by the Tequila bar tends to have a slant toward the older crowd, however there are some younger women in there. The floor by the bar in the middle of the Casino has younger baddies that want to show off their skills. Then there is the boots and brews stage inside the sports book. I havent seen a lot of action there but I also dont stay late so maybe they get a lot of cowgirl and cow boys in there. All I know is it gets popping on Saturday night. As for food and drink, you have got a lot of options. At one time the Tequila bar and its dance floor next door was a Ditkas Steakhouse which gave your typical football coach class, but I dont remember being impressed. The Tequila bar from what I know has some form of ownership from George Lopez who I think is funny and made a great movie about Carl Hayden High schools robotics program. While my high school Maryvale slaughtered them in football I appreciate the Westside/Southside significance. Enough of my boring nostalgia but I must say that Tequila bar has amazing short rib taquitps for $9 at last check. If you eat anything at Vee Quiva. Now if you have a few drinks and lose your pay load, go the Panda like we do. They also have a chicken sandwich joint and a Cafe that has fried bread and pretzels which are great. They also have a sit down restaurant with casino famed primed rib and typical diner food which I have tried and cant say it was remarkable, but I am also comparing it to Tequila bars short rib taquitos. That bar also has great guacamole and affordable tasty Margaritas with the option for tajin. Happy hour is also great at all bars with the signature "King" brer options which I think are from local turned Budweiser sell outs Four peaks. I can go on and on but bottom line this is an amazing west side casino with a great Karaoke DJ and great service. I also went to pool parties there that were fun with Karaoke but im starting to run out of data and battery to keep typing.

Went to Bad Bingo on Saturday night. It was a blast! We enjoyed the DJ, the vibe, and even better,…read moremy friend and I both won bingo! Totally wasn't expecting that but glad we did! Will definitely be back again for more bingo!
