Owned and operated by the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe, part of the Weeminuche Band, Ute Mountain Casino Hotel is located near Towaoc, about 10 miles south of Cortez. Update: The Ute Mountian Ute Tribe reportedly has plans to add sports betting to the casino, with a target opening date of May 1, 2020. Betting on sports futures, props and lay bets.The guu at the counter admitted that they should mention it on websites etc. At arrival we noticed a big sign that alcohol consumption is NOT allowed on the premises at this a “dry” reservation ?!! Nothing was mentioned on their website or on the hotel conditions via.

We were driving from Boulder to Monument Valley and needed a place for 1 night! After booking I received the hotel policies that mention you can have smoking or non-smoking rooms, no pets allowed, etc. I booked a room via 2 days before I planned to stay during our road trip in the US. Problem with all this is, do I now judge all Native-American casinos on this visit to the Ute Mountain Casino, or do I try others while out west! Really? It must have some significance to the Ute people or the designer would not have placed it so prominently in your front lobby. On another note, they have a beautiful statue in the lobby, probably signifying something, and I asked 3 different employees (two at the front desk on two different occasions), what it met and who made it. No 'I'm sorry', just didn't seem to give a hoot. Server didn't seem to care that our service was terrible, and we were waiting on food. One of the restaurant employees found we were distressed and upset, and said, 'we will discount when you pay.' We received a whopping $4.00 off a meal of 4 people, that cost $55.00 plus. Set for 90 minutes waiting for our food, and then we waited another 30 minutes for one of our party to get their main dish. Only 5 tables games, and two of those were closed due to not enough activity. If you are there for gambling, go elsewhere. Felt like we were being watched the whole time we were there. Other employees were not friendly at all.

First all, the friendliest people we found, were the clean up room staff as we were leaving. Read the reviews for here and kept an open mind going in, but I won't be staying here again.
