Missouri is where the Midwest meets the south, and that is reflected in everything from its diverse culture, to its music and cuisine. When it comes to gambling, Missouri has a combination of old restrictions mixed with modern resorts. 

The great news is that casinos are allowed, the restrictive part is that only 13 licenses can be granted and all casinos must be along the Missouri or Mississippi rivers. But in terms of quality, there’s a really good blend of resorts most of which are provided by well-known casino operators.

Missouri Casino Resorts 

Considering most of the casino resorts in Missouri are owned by some of the biggest names in US gambling, you’d expect them to be of a high standard. And you’d be right. Here’s a few details about some of the top Missouri casinos:

  • Ameristar Casino Resort Spa – Located in St. Charles, the Ameristar resort was the first AAA Four Diamond hotel in the area providing 397 luxurious suites. The hotel has a seasonal indoor/outdoor pool, 7 eateries, 12 bars, a luxury day spa, fitness center and a live entertainment venue. The 130,000-square-foot casino houses 1,700 slots, 25 live table games, high limit gaming and a live poker room.
  • Harrah’s Kansas City – Set along the banks of the Missouri River, Harrah’s Kansas City offers 400 rooms, the most modern of which are in the renovated Las Vegas Tower. Four restaurants including Gordon Ramsey Steak are on offer plus several bars and if you want live music then head to the Voodoo Lounge live music venue. The 60,000 square-foot casino has over 900 slots, 45 live table games and a 13 table poker room on the second floor.
  • River City Casino Hotel – Located 10 miles south of downtown St. Louis, River City Casino resort offers a AAA Four Diamond full-service luxury hotel with 200 rooms. The 90,000-square-foot casino floor has 1,700 slots, 40 live table games, high limit gaming and a designated baccarat room. Guests of the resort can choose between four restaurants offering different cuisines, and enjoy live music and comedy in the show room. 

More Than Gambling

Whether you’re visiting Missouri for the gambling or just a fun vacation, there’s plenty of cool places to see and do while you’re in state such as:

  • Natural Beauty  – Lake of the Ozarks and the Ozark Mountains offer incredible landscapes to be enjoyed and explored.  You can go boating, fishing, hiking or just take in some scenic drives. The Meramec Caverns are another great spot, this massive cave system was the legendary hideout of outlaw Jesse James.
  • Famous Cities – St. Louis and Kansas City are full of culture, beauty and great things to do. St. Louis is home to blues music, St. Louis Zoo, City Museum and the Gateway Arch. Meanwhile Kansas City is famous for jazz music, great barbecue food and its fountains.
  • Branson – If you love live entertainment then Branson is a must-visit, it literally has a theater for everything – country music, comedy gigs, magic shows plus loads more. Plus it also has retro theme-park Silver Dollar City and the Titanic Museum. 
  • Cuisine – You can’t visit Missouri without tasting some Kansas City slow-cooked BBQ. Other local specialties include Toasted Ravioli which is a St. Louis invention and Gooey Butter Cake which you’ll find in every St. Louis bakery.

Important Considerations

The minimum age to gamble in Missouri casinos is 21 years old. It is always advisable to bring photographic ID with you on entry. 

Unlike Las Vegas, Missouri casinos do not serve complimentary alcohol to gamblers as it is against state regulations.
