What guests think

At Emerald Queen Hotel & Casino - Fife, guests appreciate spacious, good-value rooms, but frequently report pervasive cigarette smoke and strict security checkpoints to reach the hotel through the casino, plus dated spaces and confusing parking.

Room cleanliness and maintenance are inconsistent, and many note the lack of microwaves; the pool and hot tub are enjoyed when open but have occasional closures. Service is generally friendly and helpful, though check-in can be slow and some interactions feel unwelcoming. Overall, expect a value-focused casino stay with large, simple rooms.

Pool was closed due to chemicals for 3 of the 4 days we stayed. Restaurant was upscale pricing for below average food. Very Smokey environment. Garage parking lot smelled like urine. One of the worst casinos I’ve have ever stayed at during my lifetime. Just slots no other gaming except for a video screen sportsbook. Needs to be remodeled or just start over.

The room was not clean. There were gross spots all over the carpet and ceiling. The tub caulking was black and coming off. Smelled like cigarettes because the ventilation isn't good. Just overall rundown and not nice. Pay a couple dollars more and stay at the newer Tacoma emerald queen instead!

Normally the rooms, casino and areas outside the casino are nice and clean. Must be having an off season. Our room didn’t appear clean. Trash left in garbage, shower looked like someone had used it recently, shower gel running down side of tub. Slot machines are so tight, $300 and not one machine went into a bonus round.

We appreciated the early check in exception made and the room was pretty quiet to sleep in. Unfortunately the shower did not fully have hot water and there were parts of our room like the water glasses that were not clean.

Totally terrible stay. Beds are old and uncomfortable. Decor is dated. Cigarette smoke was in the rooms in the morning either due to the poor ventilation or someone smoking in the hallway. You have to pass through the casino to get to your room and must have ID. The pool is a bleak environment with blank walls all around. Cannot walk anywhere as the road is a truck route.

The room was fine, recently renovated and clean. Only problem was one was forced to enter the hotel through the smoking Casino on both sides of the building. The air was stale and smelled of smoke even on the 4th floor. Smoke rises folks even if it is a non-smoking hotel.

Hotel was clean and comfortable. A bit of a pain getting into hotel, as you have to enter through the casino and show I.D. every time you enter. Don’t’ bring a nice vehicle and park in parkade. Crime is huge here. Had our pickup truck broken into and had steering column dismantled as they tried to steal truck. Although they were unsuccessful it did leave us stranded 14 hours from home. Tow truck said this happens everywhere in Fife. Won’t ever return.

There are only drink counters for ordering. The top floor restaurant has a little bar, but they close early. Really strange for a casino floor to have no bar for lounging and/or decompressing! :-/

Deli doesn’t open until 11a which is odd because they have coffee and pastries which would be nice for breakfast. Parking garages felt safe and car was unharmed. Overall good stay.
