great location and view

Great location and the view of the river was awesome. Close to everything we were interested in. Visited the National Battlefield, downtown and the casino's. Will go back! Also, everyone at the hotel was very nice and helpful.

Excellence

This hotel was excellent, and not just for the price, which was also amazing. Perfect location, beautifully clean rooms. The only, and I mean only, downside was no internet access but with the library only a short walk away, I really couldn't complain.

I worked my butt off preparing my house to be sold. I was nice to go to a cool clean room when the day was done. Need regular Pillows not Giant marshmellows. This also happens in other Hotels though. They need more handicapped rooms available.

The good, the bad, and the really ugly

We were stopping in Vicksburg to visit the Battlefield Park and do some gambling while there. The Park was GREAT, however this hotel and casino were not. To sum it up, the facility was showing a lot of wear...tape holding sections of carpet together. Also, the gift shop counter was almost empty, the number of people in the casino were few and it was Saturday night, and one resturant/bar was "Closed for the season"...whatever that means. The room was average in size and clean. One excellent stand out was the "Valet Lead" person. She took care of us and our bags from the beginning to the end even when we checked out and I gave told her the wrong room number not once but twice! (A Senior Moment?)

A few blocks away at 1214 Adams St., just north of Clay St., is Walnut Hills Restaurant. A true southern cuisine restaurant located in an 1880's house. This is a must dining experience and was suggested by a local. Check their hours before you go as they closed at 2:00 pm on the day of our visit.

Well, It's not Vegas.

We're not gamers. We were looking for a good room value while visiting historic Vicksburg. In that respect, the property was a great find. The hall carpets are a little worn. The rooms were modern and well maintained. The walls were a little thin. There were, to our knowledge, no provisions for Internet. The casino is a bit run down. Staffing is a little sparse. The property is on the waterfront near industrial facilities, so expect to hear (and feel) the occasional freight train or heavy truck. Be that as it may, the rooms are a great value.

Rusty's Riverfront Grill, a nearby casual establishment, simply served up the best steak we have ever experienced.

Horizon Casino

The casino staff was very friendly, but when we checked out the front desk staff couldn't even suggest a breakfast place other than McDonald's. (They live in Vicksburg. Surely, they could come up with other suggestions!) We went to a Cracker Barrel we had seen off the interstate and it was really nice with excellent service. Vicksburg has a Shoney's, that serves breakfast, too. I'm sure there are other places to eat breakfast. I heard some of the bed and breakfasts have walk-ins to eat, but I'm not sure.

Naleka Pewterware. Right off of Interstate 20. Wholesale prices (1/2 off retail) open to the public. Beautiful gift shop with free giftwrapping. Extra friendly staff. Not too far from outlet shopping mall exit. Just a couple of exits towards Vicksburg. (Maybe three exits, I'm not sure of the number, but it is close.)
