One prairie hotel, one Atlantic hotel
Casino New Brunswick
Moncton's casino hotel, opened in 2010, gives you 126 keys from a generous 440 sq. ft., windows that open and a city or mountain view. Add the pool, a concert hall under the same roof, parking at no charge and dogs allowed, and it becomes the Atlantic casino stay to know — Magnetic Hill and the Hopewell Rocks within easy driving.
Club Regent
Winnipeg's practical option: 146 non-smoking Canad Inns keys joined to a casino with about 1,200 machines and a bingo hall, next to an event centre for 1,300. Useful rather than glamorous.
And Saskatchewan?
No review yet. Its latest casino hotel is Dakota Dunes Resort (October 2020): 155 keys next to Dakota Dunes Casino, twenty minutes or so below Saskatoon. You will find it in our openings log.
