7 Cedars Hotel & Casino

There’s no pool, but 7 Cedars Casino is still a fun place to catch a game. There are tons of TVs, and it feels lively without getting too loud. I live close enough that I don’t need a room, though the hotel looks like a nice staycation option. The casino is really well kept, with a good range of games and a decent selection of alcohol. Free soda while playing is a nice bonus. It’s the place I’d go for entertainment around here.

The staff seem to enjoy their jobs, and the restaurants have lots of affordable food and drink choices. The casino is on the smaller side, but it feels welcoming and comfortable. The rewards program is better than many other casinos in the state, and it’s quick and easy to earn points for hotel rooms, merchandise, food, or free play. The hotel rooms are clean and comfortable, and they try to accommodate our daughter’s special needs. We only wish there were a microwave in the room to warm up food or drinks. We know Port Townsend, Sequim, and Port Angeles are a bit out of the way, but we think this hotel casino is worth the trip.

The rooms are roomy, the place feels modern and clean, and there’s a small supermarket inside. There’s also live music at the bar, with plenty to see and do outside. Parking outdoors is plentiful and free. Breakfast on the casino side was a letdown. The food was bland, and the eggs had what seemed like about 100 grams of cheese, with no salt or pepper. The iced tea tasted like plain cold water, with no sugar or flavor. I couldn’t finish the meal and ate somewhere else afterward. I’d also accidentally booked two double beds, and they couldn’t switch us to a king, though that part was my fault.

The facility has a beautiful, distinctive look, with huge totem columns, timber beams, and local Native themes throughout. It’s a pleasant stop to rest and play while traveling, though it’s a bit far from anywhere. The place feels quaint and usually isn’t too crowded. The food is average. There aren’t ticket-to-cash machines, so you have to wait for a teller if you want to cash out a win.
