7 best casino hotels in Gananoque

Casino hotels in Gananoque are a smart base for visitors heading to Ontario’s 1000 Islands—because the best “casino hotel” trips here are typically combined with riverfront dining, short walking distances, and easy day access to local attractions. Gananoque’s waterfront setting places you close to the harbour and downtown energy, with major draws including the Thousand Islands Playhouse on South Street and the town’s historic core where visitors explore galleries, shops, and riverside trails.

These hotels suit couples and groups looking for a comfortable “try-the-odds and unwind” stay—ideal for weekend getaways, anniversary trips, and travellers who want on-site convenience (parking, Wi‑Fi, and easy check-in/out) rather than spending each evening commuting long distances. Properties such as Ramada by Wyndham 1000 Islands/Gananoque (3★) and Stonewater Manor (3★) fit well when your priority is straightforward access to both downtown outings and the wider Thousand Islands experience—while budget-conscious options like Howard Johnson Inn Gananoque (2★) and Super 8 by Wyndham Gananoque - Country Squire Resort (3★) work for those planning more daytime activities and shorter, value-led stays.

For where to stay, the most practical approach is to choose a hotel near Gananoque’s central downtown/waterfront area for the easiest walkability to local highlights.
