Ameristar is a really nice resort! It has a beautiful hotel, with a pool and roof top hot tubs. The spa is very impressive. The 2 floors of the casino are filled with a wide variety of slots and table games. Unfortunately, the table game minimums are too high for me. But the bars have video poker . Overall, this is a great resort!

Absolutely the best hotel in Blackhawk. Clean and you can tell someone took the time when renovating this hotel. Elevators definitely need attention. Loved the staff and the Starbucks within the hotel. I would describe recommend this place out of all the properties in Blackhawk

Quick little getaway that makes me have to ask, what kind of mattress did I sleep on and where can I buy it? The room was fantastic, pillows are great, food was tasty in the Fireside Grill. Need more signage in the garage so people like me don't circle level 5 twice. Tell me where to get a mattress like I slept on in 2906 and you'll be forgiven.

All of the staff here were respectful approachable and friendly from the security officer at the elevator bank tk the slot attendant who helped me with my card even the food service team member who helped me place my order on my phone as the cashier was off for the evening!

Good visit with a few hiccups, tho! Long line & wait to get checked in to our room - over an hour. Why only have one person working the desk? Sometimes another person would come & help but then disappear. Just a bit frustrating.

Unless you are betting large, it’s a waste of money. Experience is not even fun, food options are limited due to lack of staffing. Workers are nice to the big tippers but have a different response if you just need assistance.

Staff was very friendly and the rooms are very clean. Plenty of video poker machines and table games. I wish they had a snack bar to get a quick bite such has a hot dog. No snack bar only a small restaurant open when I visited on a Wednesday night.

One thing I have always rated high about Ameristar is how awesome the dealers, servers and cash cage staff have been professional. The poker room dealers are top notch and make everyone comfortable. I will say go to Ameristar for going on 7 years. Always a good vibe. I have some good nights winning on the slots, nothing to memorable at the tables tbh.but, it's time to remodel i think the book looks great could be better but the casino floor needs a new look. It's old. Notheless it's a good time. Room comps are great, free play about average and staff and personnel are top notch.
We love driving to Black Hawk on weekdays because it's just an hour drive from our house. It's a fun place yet quiet. There's not much to do in the town other than enjoy the hotel or go hiking nearby. We had a great time at the Ameristar because there's plenty to do. The casino's great, they had a couple of really good a la carte restaurant, another restaurant where you order to go and is open until 4am and a sports bar where we watched the hockey game. The a la carte restaurant only open from Thursday to Sunday though. We also love the spa, they have a great 24 hours fitness center that is usually empty and a nice pool with indoor and outdoor hot tubs. The building is 34 floors high and beautiful. And the staff is friendly and accommodating. Great place to enjoy a weekend.

The Ameristar is kept very clean in the gaming area as well as the restroom. Sadly, there are not enough servers for drinks and the machines are extremely tight. I have been there 3 times and it has been the same each time. I did spend the night in a room last October and it was really nice and enjoyable. There are too many casinos to choose from to put up with machines this tight.

The overall experience is well worth the price you pay for the stay. A unique experience overlooking all on Blackhawk. From the entrance thru the well lite parking garage thru the cavernous lobby, Ameristar is an exciting travel destination.

The rooms were clean and well appointed, however it wasn't until we went to bed that we discovered the air conditioning wasn't working. We had dinner at the FIreside. My daughter and her friend ordered Moscow Mules and they were awful. The burger was made of what seemed like 2 frozen patties instead of the fresh thick burger we expected. The rest of the food wasn't bad but wasn't great. Overall it wasn't a horrible stay but wasn't as good as expected.

Start the Front Range Peak to Peak Scenic Byway in style. Book early and request a Top Floor overlooking Black Hawk. Better than a Mountaintop cabin. The Roof top pool deck is west facing (sunny). Grab some towels, a lounge chair and wait for an opening in the Hot Tub. Just needs Afternoon Beverage service. Guest rooms are spacious. Bed is sleep worthy. Free parking is a long walk to the Hotel Lobby. TIP: rooms have a mini fridge but this town has very limited options of snacks / adult beverages. Stock up before arriving! Casino & restaurants are higher end than most. Make the most of special requests. They aim to please.
