The self serve system takes a bit to set up, and multiple members of our group chat trouble. A staff member did provide assistance, and comped a beer when the pour was off. All of the beer selections were local and there was a good variety. They even had wine and cocktail selections. I'm also not sure what caused it, but a majority of our beers were foam. We ordered tacos and tater tots and all were amazing. They also had some trouble with their payment processing system, but eventually figured it out. This is a new spot with some kinks, but once they get those figured out, this is going to be an amazing spot!

Open only 2-10 pm Thursday to Sunday, targets weekend crowd and closes early enough so self serve doesn't become late-night drunk serves Give it a try- looks fun, and be patient as they figure out how to make everything work right!

Our destination was closer to the south so we opted for Blackhawk and Lucille Malone's. My experience with casino food has not been great but we figured it would sustain us, at least. Were we pleasantly surprised!! I got a skillet with sausage, hash browns, peppers and scrambled eggs smothered in Colorado green chili (if you've never had it, get it!) and my wife had the breakfast burrito smothered in green chili. Both were excellent! The service was friendly and attentive and the atmosphere was welcoming and interesting as the location (Gilpin Casino) was originally an historic hotel supposedly haunted by Lucille Malone. We would definitely recommend!

The omelette was just okay, nothing special, but not bad either. Prices were a little on the high side for breakfast, but not outrageous.

Overall, decent spot for breakfast if you're nearby, especially if you go for the burrito.

I can…read moreonly think the reviewers that have knocked down the ratings are either: 1) Disgruntled employees; 2) Competing casino shills; or 3) Gamblers that have lost money at the slots. Here's the bottom line from an honest reviewer: The Monarch hits EVERY expectation level with a 5-star performance! The staff service is absolutely OUTSTANDING! These folks have been trained well in hospitality, from the front desk to housekeeping to security to the bars & restaurants. The bartenders, especially, are as good if not better than any we've seen at any casino in Las Vegas. As for the food, TOTALLY AWESOME! From the all-star buffet to each of the several casual-to-formal dining options, the food at the Monarch is always fresh, tasty, plentiful and reasonably priced! And, as for ambiance? The whole place is TERRIFIC, especially the rooms, which are clean, spacious and beyond beautiful in decor! For what they charge, you'll feel like you're staying at a Ritz Carlton at a budget price. And their Spa is WORLD CLASS, a total rejuvenating experience! Trust me -- you want a great getaway in the clean, crisp mountains? Go to The Monarch in Black Hawk, Colorado, for the time of your life!

To start, we got a spa suite for 2 nights and it was equivalent of a very high end apartment. Other "spa suites" I've stayed at in Black Hawk were nice, but they were just basic rooms with a hot tub in them. This felt like a home away from home. The staff were incredibly courteous and helpful. The bartenders and dealers were also attentive and fun to talk to. I regret not trying any of the dining options, as we had plans for dinner already, but we plan to try some again our next stay (I've heard great things about Jinya) We also really enjoyed the rooftop hot tub and pool. The temperature was perfect and I swam several laps during my stay. There are so many amenities. I Will be back here soon!

Julia and Paul the "security guards" kicked me and my best friend out for celebrating at a BJ table telling us we were "too intoxicated" and had "blood shot eyes" even though I had two drinks for free at the table and asked for bottles of water with both drinks. Julian and Paul were being so disrespectful for no reason. We also were losing money and got excited when we finally won just a tiny bit. This casino is a SCAM. Highly recommend to never come here. Horrible workers. Horrible security guards. Horrible service - 0/10 experience. Ive never been treated this horribly. Will NEVER be back. I've been to black hawk many times, i'm a colorado native and know many people that come here often. They lost a ton of business for that for absolutely no reason for this. They should 100% fire Julian and Paul the "security guards". Would not trust them securing any vacinity. Very embarrassing for them. I'm disgusted by this business. I would probably go to Monarch if you HAVE to go to Black hawk. Ameristar is the worst casino i've ever been to. I would most definitely drug test Julian and Paul. They did not seem capable to secure this casino and made us feel very unsafe. HUGE disappointment.

We didn't have an ice bucket in our room and had to call down for one. The shower does not get that hot, which is frustrating. At check-in the lady didn't know how to work the key card machine. She only gave us one key card and it expired the next morning even though we were scheduled to be there for 3 days. There was a huge line, so we tried using the kiosk and it would not register either of our id's. So we got back in line and waited 20mis to get new keys (she was understandably checking in new guests, it just sucked to wait when we had somewhere to be and this could have been avoided in the first place). We ordered food from the room and payed for it with our card, but they also charged it to our room upon check out. The person at the front desk didn't know how to erase the charge, but called their manager who over the phone said they would take care of it. There are a few unsavory individuals that run around the motel. A girl and her guy friend that were literally rolling off of nitrous that she was actually carrying around in her arms going floor to floor during check out time. So...that was interesting. There's not a store or anything nearby, so if you needed something extra, other hotels in the area will actually have something. Also, there are some weird smells coming from the hallway near the elevator on the check-in floor.
