I checked in the night before, asked for a 4:00 am wake-up call, was going to shower but could not get the shower to work at all, I reported this to the desk, was told they could give 10% discount..by the day shift manager, I told her I shouldn't have to pay period. I would welcome a call from the... More

Stayed at this hotel right after Christmas 2011. Checked in early (@2pm) with minimal wait. Hotel desk and Player's club are the same spot, so I can't imagine what the wait would be if it was busy. Hotel was sold out of king bedded rooms so we got a 2 Queen. Nice room - "island" motiff is a bit outdated,... More

I was a bit hesitant about heading to Wheeling island after reading all of the negative reviews, but I was pleasantly surprised. The hotel was VERY nice (rooms were spacious and well-decorated), casino was a typical casino, and the dog track was great. They are refurbishing the casino, so there are some areas that are roped off while they are... More

Stayed here several times and if it was located somewhere other than the middle of a neighborhood that's falling down in a city that's falling down I would rate it higher. Rooms are clean, food at the Breezeway Cafe was good and the staff was nice. The lobby smelled like mildew and everywhere you go it stinks like cigarette smoke.... More

For three years we have been trying to get into this hotel, we finally made it and now we understand why it takes so long. Their rooms are spacious, comfortable, and relaxing. Very up to date colors, the beds are wonderful, the bathroom is modern, and the room is very clean. The best opportunity to get a room is during... More

We really enjoy the casino. The hotel is nice, but I think it is needing some updates. The hotel is always clean and the staff is very friendly. I think they have cut back on costs and it is starting to show. More

I've spent the evening during the week there with my husband. The room was very clean and noise free. The Hotel has modern features and was overall the perfect evening spent not having to drive home late at night after gambling on the winding West Virginia highways. The Casino-Hotel has some wonderful food choices a plentiful buffet,a deli and a... More

Going to a family reunion and husband likes the slots. Room was a bit expensive but clean. HOWEVER, the rest of the hotel was filthy, especially the main lobby. The hallway to our room was not vacummed the three days we were there, Left over food and who knows what was all over the floor. The hotel lobby was not... More

Stayed over on Friday night as wife likes the slot machines. Room was very clean, comfortable, and large. Was a bit expensive but was worth it. The Friday Seafood buffet is the best around! Had lots of fun and people were very friendly. We were going to college football game on Saturday so good stop over for us. More

This was my first "overnight" at Wheeling Island so I wasn't sure what to expect. The room was spotless and very comfortable. The customer service was excellent. We ate in the cafe the first night. Very good food and prices were reasonable. Wheeling Island is known for its excellent buffet which we ate before we left the next day. We... More
