Best Casino: Snoqualmie Casino & Hotel
This article originally appeared in the November/December 2026 issue of Seattle magazine.
Snoqualmie Casino & Hotel debuted its $400 million expansion last year, adding a hotel, spa and fitness facility, a larger convention center, and expanded gambling space. Now, visitors can play and stay with ease: the hotel features more than 200 rooms, and six on-property dining options vary from a classic steakhouse to a coffee-forward café. Take a break from the tables to enjoy Snoqualmie’s world-class entertainment lineup, with musicians, comedians, magicians, and more taking the stage each week.

About Readers' Choice 2026
Once a year, we turn the tables and ask our readers about their favorite local spots. The neighborhood café with the best coffee, the restaurant you book for every special occasion, and where you send out-of-town guests for top-tier cocktails. Seattleites have opinions, and they shared them with us. This year, we received more votes than ever before, with some familiar favorites returning and plenty of new names making the list.
