Harrah's metropolis hotel casino12/5/2023 IMHO, this place is a step up from Tunica, except that there is no choice if things don't go well in the one casino. The sit-down restaurant off the lobby in the hotel had very good food and service, but is not open in the AM. The Diamond Lounge and buffet are still on a barge in the river, and can be reached through the casino-when it is open. The casino closes late in the evening, which is not much of an issue for me, but the fact that it does not open until 9AM means to access the only restaurant (the buffet) before that time means you have to walk across the parking lot at the rear of the hotel (from the hotel lobby), and there are no signs or directions to that effect. The fact that the place is all non-smoking is wonderful. Some of the laws in Illinois are very good, some not so much. Not a lot of choice or access for the table player. The table games were crowded all the time I was there and there were no pitch blackjack games. The higher value slots are there, but not so many and not a great selection. It also is bigger, and has 2 bars or lounges much nicer than hunting an oasis on the boat. The new casino is right off the hotel lobby, so a lot more convenient than the old boat. The mailers describing the new casino makes one curious had to take a look.
