Very clean room, clean towels and great view onto the lake. This casino/hotel does allow smoking so it will always smell like smoke even if you get a non smoking room. The bathrooms were very spacious. I do wish they had updated tv’s there were basic channels on the tv’s. Overall decent hotel.

Clean room beautiful hotel overall. Hotel staff were very attentive and friendly. David at front desk went above and beyond to accommodate our stay. Danika was also another awesome front desk employee that helped us. I loved the day we didn’t have to pay for vallet parking. Huge casino lots of fun perks. Delicious restaurants every corner of casino. We had a blast and look forward to coming back soon! This made my birthday weekend unforgettable.

I stayed at the Ameristar East Chicago for 21 nights over 11 stays in fall 2025, travelling for business. It doesn't have everything (breakfast) and is in an odd location. But it was half or less than hotels in Hyde Park, had free parking, big rooms, was always clean and quiet, and the front desk staff was awesome. Shout out to Danica, who was not only a joy but who directed me to the rooms with the best wifi.
