The Akwesasne Mohawk Casino has over 1600 slot machines with denominations from penny machines to over $5 per bet machines. Smoking is allowed in much of the casino, while there is a non smoking area as well. Unfortunately if you are a non smoker you are going to end up beside someone who is chain smoking and smells terrible. This is one of the few major dislikes of this casino in our opinion. Never the less they have lots of slot machines for you to choose from . They also have a non smoking section which is near the main entrance and the buffet, which is very popular.
We have several pictures of the Akwesasne Mohawk Casino to show on this page. If anyone has a picture please feel free to send us one and we will add it to the post. We have been to this casino many times and have just forgotten to take a picture of the casino building while we were there.
There are 20 table games at the Akwesasne Mohawk Casino including blackjack, roulette, craps, poker and a number of other table games for your enjoyment.
Patrons can also drink at the slot machines and waitresses will bring you a drink right to the slot machine. Beer is $1.50 and wine is $3.00. Add a small tip to the cost of the drinks, since these ladies are not paid very much and they depend on their tips to make a decent income.
There are various days with different events taking place. For example Mondays and Wednesdays are often senior days with the lunch time buffet as well as dinner at half price. You can use your points from your slot card towards point play or towards a meal at one of the restaurants. The casino will also send you promotions from time to time with free slot play coupons once you sign up for a slot card.
There are not many hotels or motels in the immediate area. There is the Comfort Inn right next door to the casino and of course the hotel attached to the casino. We have stayed at the Comfort Inn and found it to be very acceptable, clean and a decent breakfast in the morning. It is also fairly new and not tired looking at all. Rates are a bit high , however it always seems to be busy and you may want to book a room in advance especially if you wish to stay there on the weekend. There is no tax on rooms at the Comfort Inn. However the reservation has added a $10 pr night room fee.
There are also quite a few motels across the border in Cornwall. It is not a great distance, however depending on the time of the day , it can take up to an hour to get through the customs area, due to backups on the bridges. You will also need to have $3.25 for tolls to cross the bridge in both directions. There is a 13.5% tax on all rooms in Ontario.

Had dinner at Sticks on Dec 28th, place was ok, they have approximately 14 TV screens to watch sports and a nice bar. Waiter screwed up our dinner order, but then gave us a 10% discount on the overall meal. Not the best place, but ok if you want a sports bar atmosphere!
It is precisely the fact that they allow smoking that motivates us to go there. Thank goodness the natives still respect private property choice. Don't like smoking? Go to a casino that does not allow it.
We appreciate that many people like to smoke, and most do while respecting others near them. All we are saying is that the casino could do a better job of air circulation and keeping the place clean. Many smokers drop their ashes almost anywhere and it makes it bad for all of us, not just the non smokers. Not to mention the high cost of keeping the slot machines running. If Vegas can provide fresh air , so can other casinos!
Re smoking: disappointed to hear that? Is the smoke thick or is it tolerable?
the smoking is tolerable if you stick to the non smoking section of the casino. also the hotel is all non smoking
