There’s always a long line to check in at Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel- but rarely are there kids amongst the crowd. Instead (and quite obviously), the hotel caters to adults, who visit to enjoy the casino, spa and specialty restaurants.

We don’t recommend Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel for families, but if you choose to visit, you’ll appreciate that the hotel provides an arcade, casual restaurants with kid-pleasing meals and a central location in Niagara Falls, New York.

The hotel's accommodations aren't glitzy in the way many casino hotel rooms are. Instead, they feature hues of brown and green and are simply decorated and furnished. There are a total of 486 rooms and 86 suites, and most accommodations offer deluxe bathrooms with oversized showers, but none of them offer tubs. Guests have the option to rent a movie on demand; there's also the option to listen to music on your TV. Cribs are available upon request, free of charge. Guests can rent a rollaway bed for a charge of $15 per night. Connecting rooms are available, though they cannot be guaranteed; request in advance of your visit. Free Wi-Fi is available in all rooms.

Double Queen
The Double Queen is the best option for families, sleeping four to five guests.

Corner Suite
The Corner Suite might accommodate a family of three if someone is willing to sleep on the room's sofa; otherwise, book a Double Queen. The Corner Suite features a separate bedroom with a king bed, and a jetted tub in the area, attracting couples more than families.

Center Suite
The Center Suite is similar to the Corner Suite, except many of the amenities are contained in the private bedroom.

The hotel also has a Standard King room, which sleeps up to two people.

Pool
The hotel has an indoor pool, located on the third floor (along with the spa and fitness center). Children need to be accompanied by an adult to use it. Towels are available, but food and drinks are not permitted.

Arcade
The hotel provides a game room just for kids, open 24 hours. Children must be at least 18 years old to access it without an adult. The arcade -- fairly small in size -- offers traditional games.

Blues Burger Bar

The Art of Smart Timing
The Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel bustles with excitement year-round, but is especially busy during the summer months -- prime time to visit Niagara Falls. The hotel regularly offers promotions and packages, so it's easy to save.

Getting There
Seneca Niagara Casino & Hotel is about 30 minutes from Buffalo Niagara International Airport, which is serviced by most major airlines. Expect to pay a toll of $1 (both ways). If you need assistance with transportation to and from the airport, contact the concierge.

Getting Around
You don't have to go far to get to Niagara Falls State Park, but it's still best to have a car while you're in town -- especially if you plan to explore area attractions, such as Fort Niagara, Lewiston and the other side of Niagara Falls in Canada.

For Mom and Dad
You certainly don't need to leave the hotel to enjoy some R&R. Head straight for the slot machines, or consider a spa treatment. The Spa offers a wide arrange of services, including massages, wraps, manicures, pedicures and hair services. Afterward, grab a drink at one of the hotel's bars: The Lobby Bar, Club 101, Aces or Keno Bar.
