Located just five minutes from downtown Kansas City, Argosy Casino Hotel & Spa was KC’s first riverboat casino. It opened in June 1994 and actually took guests for two-hour gambling cruises along the Missouri River. From 1996 to 2005, Argosy docked for good, and underwent a number of multimillion-dollar renovations, doubling the size of the gaming floor, adding the 258-room luxury hotel, spa and meeting space—not to mention earning a few architectural accolades along the way.

Instead of overlooking the beautiful Missouri River, the Hollywood sits next to the Kansas Speedway, with views of every turn. Also located next to the popular Legends shopping center, you’ll find plenty of activities, dining and places to stay to keep you entertained—including Cabela’s and Nebraska Furniture Mart.

Kansas City’s most “modest” casino—as far as size goes, anyway—is located just a few minutes from the downtown area. Isle of Capri Casino offers all the slots, poker machines and table games you can ask for—including eight live poker tables for you six-card and Texas hold ‘em fanatics.

7th Street Casino

By the Numbers:

20,000 square feet
Three levels
600 slot machines
Two restaurants

While far from being the largest casino in KC, this Kansas-side gem is unique in a number of other ways. 7th Street Casino is operated by the Wyandotte Nation—a tribe that once made its home in Wyandotte County, Kansas. Located in the heart of KCK, it occupies a former Shrine building which also happens to be across the street from the historic Huron Cemetery, a Native American burial ground. By virtue of the building’s historic nature, the atmosphere has a way of harkening back to Kansas City’s rowdy early 20th-century reputation.

History[edit]

In September 1995, Sam's Town Gambling Hall, Kansas City opened as the fourth casino under the brand, and the fifth casino in the Kansas City area.
