Argosy Casino Alton, Illinois, United States
3.5 (166 reviews) Monday: 8:00 AM - 6:00 AM Spent Ranking #6 in Alton Casinos
Unique Among Casinos
Argosy Casino is different from the other 5 casinos in the greater St. Louis (MO) area. It is smaller, non-flashy, comfortable, and friendly. It is a smoke-free establishment, with designated outdoor smoking areas. There is ample parking, and shuttle or valet service, but no garage. Sections of the casino are closed on weekdays. There is a restaurant, a buffet, and a snack bar. A nice touch is the inclusion of self-serve hot chocolate along with coffee and soft drinks. There is a nice variety of slots, in the various denominations, and a few tables. Comps are more generous than at some of the other local casinos. The staff is friendly, courteous, and helpful. There are regular promotions and somewhat regular entertainment. This is a retired riverboat with seating available on the decks, providing excellent views of the Mississippi River. The Argosy offers a nice change-of-pace to the larger, flashier & smokier St. Louis casinos.

Stopped in on the way to the ball park.
Last weekend on the way to a Cardinal game we stopped by the Argosy to do a little gambling. We had a very nice time loosing our allotted money. Very easy to get to and easy access parking.Staff was friendly, courteous, and helpful. Lots of pros and only one con. We LOST our allotted money.( which was expected) lol All in all we had a great time.

Miss the Good Old Days!
I miss the good old days. Our favorite machines on the third floor closed: Ones on second floor closed too. Machines on first floor mostly new and foreign to us. Our favorite machines on the old stage area: gone Buffet closed.. Sport betting area and table games now take up half of the only floor left. Slot playing time cut in half now. So sad to see the dramatic changes. The 3 stars only come from the friendly staff who are trying to make it work.
