My wife and I decided to stop by the casino and stay two night as we got comped rooms from the Hampton Inn and we wanted to visit Tanganyika Park. I do not know if I had beginners luck coming to casino, but this casino left a great impression on me. I like they have all sorts of games ranging from low to high volatile machines and I was able to gain at least 5000 tier points. I had a great first night with three handpays. The next day was not so lucky as I gave them back 2K. The following day I left with another 2 handpays. They do a 5% tax however on jackpots which is a bummer, but I guess most states do. They have a smoking and non-smoking session. Their food court is in the middle of the casino floor, but it might be an issue if they have kids as I am not so sure they can enter the casino to eat there and the main places to eat for dining. The casino is located out of the big city, but just 20 minutes away from Wichita and was able to go to the Tanganyika Park. The other good news is no homeless people come here, but you experience this usually in downtown or in Biloxi. They have plenty of drink stations as I usually get a drink. Handpays do not take a long time as most Boyd casinos and they are usually fast. Usually, I would tip, but Kansas state tax takes 5%. I really love this casino and the selection they have. I would definitely come back. I probably will not get 5 handpays this go around like I did, but I lasted at the casino. read more

So disappointing that you can't have a meal as a family if you stay at the Hampton Inn connected to the casino. I respect the law of no minors on the casino floor but why isn't there an alternative entrance to the restaurants? ( The steakhouse with the only outdoor entrance was closed the day we went and the security guard implied I couldn't afford to go to it anyway). We will never return. read more

We had such a great time at this casino. It is so clean, comfortable and has such friendly dealers. They don't have the smoke smells and the machines are not overly loud, so it's not as over-stimulating as some casinos can be, the volume level is pleasant. We played roulette for hours then crawled into our RV parked in the parking lot and got a good night's rest. RV parking was great, there were a couple other RVs, well lit lot and security driving around. read more

Kansas Star Casino - Parking and entrance - Casinos Near Me - Mulvane, Kansas

Waited an HOUR in the bar line that was being ran by one person. Needs more staff or a better system for sure. Unacceptable at peak hours

10/10. Great experience. no food poisoning like gillieys. Live music and fun. It was definitely a casino similar to blackrock and vegas. Kinda wish there was more outlets to eat or even shop near here. Would really make the trip better. read more

We stayed in parking lot with an RV. We were very comfortable. It's pretty quiet at night with security driving around occasionally. Went inside to play the slots.... Came out with a little extra money. . Machines are not as noisy as some other Casinos, which made it comfortable for me. I could hear myself think & could talk with my husband without yelling over the machine noises. Went to the bar to celebrate my winnings.... The bartender was quite friendly. Overall, a good experience. read more

Here's the thing, I think you're either going to love or hate a casino based on your financial performance and as you may guess by my glowing five-star review, I did okay! We were in town for a wedding and staying at the Hampton Inn next door, which meant the Kansas Star Casino was sure to benefit from at least a few of our degenerate gambling group. I'm happy to say that I was not one of the big contributors to the Kansas Star Casino light bill last weekend but I have no doubt that they'll be fine based on more than a handful of interactions that I witnessed from losers at the blackjack tables. You'll notice right off the bat that the casino is small, a far cry from anything grandiose in Vegas, but significant for a small town like Wichita. My focus was on craps and also the sportsbook for the few days that I was there. While I only ended up netting about $100 on the craps table, the sportsbook brought in a cool couple thousand on some very modest bets. That's me, here is a more general list of bullet points. - Tin Lizard is the place to hang out with good food, and a pleasant bar staff - The center bar is nice for cocktails, but you won't find food there - The tables have very modest limits, okay for almost any gambler - The high limit room is dotted with some popular machines that are sure to hook the deep pockets - The steakhouse is dimly lit and well stocked with some decent wine. The prices are also very affordable, for a steakhouse. - The sportsbook is run by Fan Duel and has kiosks to easily built parlays - Easy access to the hotel next door Will I be back? Probably not, and I most definitely won't go out of my way, but I do appreciate this casino for funding my quick trip to Wichita! read more

Not to be confused with the Kansas Scar, which is what happens if you get stabbed while in Mulvane, which I hope you can avoid. Named after Starlight, who has been to Kansas, at which point she was the Kansas Star-Star. Gorgeous Casino in the middle of nowhere on the plains which exemplifies Kansas in some ways. It's beautiful out here and they've done a great job with it. Now granted, I don't like casinos at all and I don't like to lose money here, but I have to also say that as far as casinos go this is one of the prettiest and best-kept, and they have a nice hotel on the premises too. read more

Kansas Star Casino - Not as creepy as a Kansas Stare - Casinos Near Me - Mulvane, Kansas

me and my Family are Patrons of this Casino when we travel through here a few times a year and stay at the Hotel there. We have always enjoyed ourselves until this time. This happened yesterday 5/19/2024. two of the Rudest People I have ever met! One Manager was named Erica at the Roulette Tables and the other Managers name was Jonna or Donna, I couldn't see the first letter of His or Her name badge. We have always played table games and then went back to our room and came back to play or just cash in our chips the next day. Not this time!! They were saying that they would only honor $1 per chip instead of the $5 we paid for each one! over $100 worth of chips! no Thanks, Right!? They also tried to say that we were not permitted to leave their Casino until we had given them their chips back at $1 per chip!!! We ended up cutting our Family Vacation short and coming home early due to these "Managers" Disrespectful AND Rude Behavior!!! please see attached video and pictures or you can also view it on YouTube at... Kansas Star Casino, How management treats their Patrons. I have not heard from any member of the staff or Management Team as of writing this post. 5/20/24 read more

Kansas Star Casino - Kansas Star Casino Managers and how they treat their Patrons - Casinos Near Me - Mulvane, Kansas

Was like any other casino, was super annoying that they didn't have a poker room though. If anyone knows of any poker in Wichita let me know! read more

This place is a complete joke. If you rejoice when you win, they will remove you from the casino. Thanks for the 600 bucks. With casinos like the horseshoe and hard rock? This casino is already on life support, and they treat their customers like trash. It's ran by a bunch of millennials who have no clue how to run a casino. read more

New food options outrageously overpriced. 2 meals - $60, and not even that good. Even more decievingly, prices not listed on menu, surprise upon delivery. read more

Need to let people win I have only won small amounts my highest I got after playing for hours is 300 but spent all most that to get it so really only won about 75 bucks the machines take forever to give u a bonus and when I finally did get a bonus of 15 spins I won 12 dollars when people get a bonus we really expect to will on it . So it gets frustrating because it feels like the machines are rigged. read more

Food court has several options but the food isn't very well seasoned. This is my first casino so don't have a lot to compare to but it's clean and accessible. Not too crowded. The smoking and non smoking areas don't have any real separation (I.e doors or walls) so the non smoking pretty much becomes the smoking area too. I wouldn't come here if you're worried about second hand smoke. read more

If you're considering going to this casino of course to gamble, consider yourself BIG broke when you leave!! Within two hours, I lost $2300 and it was not because I was over spending. It's just an absolutely extremely tight slotted Casino and I must say the card tables are not any better!!! Believe me when I say, go a few more miles down the road to Oklahoma and the small casinos there will treat you much much better!! Not to mention if you are a Boyds reward member you don't get much of a discount, if any, at the Hampton Inn that is attached to it. and their hotel entry into the casino is closed until sometime late February. Beds are old and extremely uncomfortable and the pillows are even worse. And we complained about children running/stomping/jumping in the room directly above us continually and we were informed that they'll be gone the next day, that's all they had available. Period. WTF?! if I could rate this a minus I definitely would. read more

Although I didn't come home a winner I loved this casino. Not too smoky and that's a huge plus but lots Of choices of machines and I played roulette which is my favorite. read more

This place was a dump! If you don't mind staying in a giant ashtray then go ahead and make a reservation. The hallways stunk so bad of old cigarette smoke you could barely stand it. There was someone else's toothpaste spit on the sink and hair on the sheets which obviously weren't changed. Why are the restaurants open to the casino floor. You have to choke down your meal on someone else's cigarette smoke. read more

Last casino I visited was in Dubuque, Iowa in 2017 and haven't been to one since then. We stayed at the Hampton Inn which is connected to the casino. Decided to pay a quick visit and tried our luck. As soon as we walked in, the strong cigarette odor was so overwhelming that I felt dizzy. Forgot they still allow indoor smoking.. Lots of machines were on and a lot of people too. It's July 4th long weekend and it was Friday night. There are 4 restaurants: Tin Lizzy, a Vietnamese pho, deli and steakhouse. We didn't try any as we had dinner prior going to the casino. There was 2 self serve beverages stations near the restrooms. New player has a $5 bonus after a $10 play. Get your new membership at B connected, a blue neon sign. It's not Vegas but good for a quick 10 minutes stop if you're near Wichita. There isn't much else going on with limited food options in Mulvane. read more

They took out the best part of this state casino. No more card room. If you want to play Texas Hold'em you have to go to the many underground games in Wichita and of course Texas. No reason to go to this state casino as they have a ridiculous machine pay out rate and too much smoke. read more

Kansas Star Casino - The glass is always empty at the Kansas Star Casino. - Casinos Near Me - Mulvane, Kansas

We had fun at casino and spent a lot won alot. But the hotel room was horrible . Blood looking like substance on Pic frame and walls. Other spray stains . In bathroom nothing was filled it was all empty. And pumps on bottles also had red stains. Grime all along tub and floor. They refused to refund me paidv186 two night each night at 186 bucks. Also no micro wave in room and the mini fridge was hot. Horrible and discusting. read more

Nice overall casino. Variety of games, both slots and tables!! No complimentary drinks if you're a drinker. Smoking allowed and had food!

Shout out to PJ, Brett, and Scott at the Table Games section! As a new player to blackjack and table games in general, they made me feel comfortable and even taught some basic strategy to a beginner. Will definitely be back to play again! My fiancé and I had a great experience at the bar and grill, thank you Haley for being an amazing server. Would definitely recommend the pulled pork sandwich or the Jack Daniel's burger. It was a great birthday experience. Don't be fooled by these reviews - a lot of people mad at the casino for losing their money on high volatility PENNY slot machines. As with every single casino, come here with money you expect to lose lol - don't be mad at them for your poor decision in slots. read more

I am impressed with the effort they have made in having what feels like a smoke free environment even though there are smokers. I really appreciate that! ( I have allergies) The slots are changed frequently. A card room recently opened up on the East side. The old one closed. While we play, we all guess what kind of restaurant is opening in the old spot! The Shark bar is gone, as is the photo place, but you can order at the bar by the buffet to get pizza and burgers. I still enjoy the Wednesday slot tournament and the $7 buffet. I also like getting to slide my card and get star play! read more

Very crowded. Elbow to elbow. Too much smoking and hardly any ventilation. Choking on the fumes.

I used to frequent this place several times a week. Many weekends w/ a large group. The machines are max tight now, the bartenders are slow and could care less that your standing and waiting for a drink, the dealers are all social justice warriors and are more concerned about being offended then doing their job. K-Star has become a complete waist basket. Don't go. read more

No more poker room! They could not figure out how to do poker during COVID and never opened back up. Just ate some over priced food and went back to the hotel. read more

It's a casino, so you never expect to win. However, these machines are tight! Kansas must be hurting for revenue. They have newer, fun machines as well as table games, but expect to lose and lose quickly. read more

Update: I'm from Las Vegas so I don't really gamble. But.. the slots here are the most tightest I have ever seen! They barely let you win even tiny stuff. I know if I gamble I'm gonna loose but at least let something happen! It's better for your business to loose $100 in one hour AND buy over priced drinks then let me loose $100 in 20min and NOT let me buy 5 overpriced drinks... just saying. The gaming commission needs to loosen up the payout. It's really bad here... The canned responses about being competitive is a joke. You know Boys is a huge company (worked for them) so your statement is not valid! Competitive for kansanites yeah. Because it's a small insignificant state with .. zero national casino companies?.. lol don't bother. Your poor cocktails don't even make good money. Hell.. in Las Vegas I've made $1200/night in tips (bad night) alone because Boyd encourages payouts and money flow there! Loosen the payouts. People will tip more and spend more! read more

Nice looking casino but absolutely the worst odds I've ever seen. We've stopped here about four or five times and each and every time we can't win a nickel. There are too many casinos in the world with better payouts...so sorry but I won't be spending a nickel there ever again!!!! Total robbery!!!! read more

Machines are old and tight. Go north or south. You just put money in and nothing back. Can't even play very long.

Been going for awhile as it's the closest casino for us. Used to be fun. At one time they would announce the winners frequently. Bout once or twice every 30 minutes. Or more often. Lately it seems those odds have gone way down. Only announcing maybe once an hour. In everytime I've been we've lost everything instantly. Which I understand the odds are against me but they don't even make it fun. Lose 100 dollars to a machine in 10 minutes to kind of game play no sort of win to make it enticing just no hit gone. On every single machine. Every single time we go. If I'm gonna lose at least make it take longer. Or even fun. This was just depressing. read more

First time here. Also, last time. Wouldn't let us take our 20 year old nephew into the restaurant, which is fine, we are rule followers. Took him back up to the room which was marginal, and walked back down to get "take out" from the tin lizard. The bartender apparently is in charge of the take out orders. We had been riding bikes all day and we were really hungry. Everything we ordered was wrong. Everything we ordered was subpar; except the burger, which was ok. Expensive as heck and just ok. Of course we were already all the way back in the room When we discovered the orders were completely wrong ‍. We decided to look around while they made the food. The casino itself is ok but all of the games are old. Now we know where old slot machines go to die. We didn't waste our time. Needless to say, there are way better options in Oklahoma just a few miles away with excellent food and the money to pay for floor security to keep underage people from gambling instead of the two rent a cops checking IDs at the doors, which hinders a family from stopping for a meal, Sketchy af. The place had an overall low class vibe. Hard pass. Total bummer read more

This place has truly disappointed me much more than the other casino experiences I've had. I'm not much of a big gambler at all, but sometimes it is thrilling to go out and play some card games to blow time. A couple of the workers I have encountered are very dry and have attitude problems as if they were doing me a favor by dealing cards out. I did not like that at all. read more

This place is one of the worst, if not the worst, casino I've ever had the displeasure to visit. The food here is subpar. The workers here are rude and if you come here often enough they will eventually do something to unethical and disrespectful to you or your friends and family members. I strongly advise anyone against stepping foot in this god forsaken place! read more

I've been coming here since u opened and been playing the same machines even though u have moved them around alot​ ,Now u guys should be ashamed of yourselves for messing with machines and the payouts I know these machines I cone alot U guys rip people off Not sure why I even come anymore , I guess to pay employees wages I'm not the only one that thinks thus STOP it It's no fun coming and u guys taking 700 or whatever and a person not able to win shit on any of them I know how they wk read more

These were the greatest people we stayed February 14th on the 15th our car wouldn't start our ignition had froze they have been the perfect and politest people they helped us to try and get our car started they did everything they could they even let us lay around in their lobby for 5 hours so we could get it startedThank you all so much read more

Seems like every time I go to Kansas star casino I lose I don't win but a little bit here and there but generally I'll lose everything I got in the machine until I quit. It's ridiculous at a casino it's so freaking tight that the same person loses constantly over and over and over again I don't get it. read more

The absolute worse casino in the US. Their security team is aggressive and profile individuals without probable cause. They single out individuals who simply were socializing in a group setting. They're aggressive to females. Would not recommend to anyone local or visitors. Locals confirmed this is a reoccurring issue and not an isolated event. Has happened several years due to hot tables and conversing. Worse casino ever! read more

Like the Kansas Star. Every time I stop hear I have a good time. Maybe it's luck but my money lasts longer here than any other casino. Normally go to Chactaw or Winstar Casino. In Oklahoma. This year already me and family have stayed at the Hampton Inn attached to the casino like the Hotel. read more
