What You Are Actually Walking Into
Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort sits at 6380 Fallsview Blvd. in Niagara Falls, Ontario. Doors never really “close” here. The casino runs all day, every day, holidays included. You can walk in at 2am on a Tuesday and the gaming floor feels alive, not half-shuttered with staff packing up.
The casino floor is big enough that you can get lost for a bit. There are over 3,200 slot machines and more than 100 table games spread across the space. You see the standard mix: blackjack, roulette, baccarat, various poker-style games. Slots range from classic three-reel machines with simple payouts to newer video formats with bonus rounds and multiple paylines. If you like to wander before you settle in, there is plenty of ground to cover.

The hotel is attached directly to the casino. There are 372 rooms and suites upstairs, with a good portion looking out over Horseshoe Falls. You can go from your room to the gaming floor, then to restaurants or an entertainment venue, without ever going outdoors. That kind of layout is very convenient when the weather is rough, and maybe a bit risky if you are not great at setting limits for yourself.
How to Get Started on the Floor
If this is your first time walking into Fallsview, the process is pretty straightforward.
At the entrance, staff will ask for a valid government-issued photo ID. Ontario law sets the minimum gambling age at 19, and that is treated as a hard line, not a guideline. Once your ID is checked, you are cleared to enter.
Slots are the easiest way to start. You do not need to sign up for anything or get a card first. You just pick a machine, sit down, and play.
Table games require a tiny bit more structure. You look for the game you want, wait until there is a free seat, and sit. Before the first hand or spin, the dealer will explain the table limits so you know the minimum and maximum bets. If you are holding cash, it can be exchanged for chips right at the table, or you can go to the cage cashier, which is the central bank of the floor. If you are arriving with U.S. dollars, there is an on-site foreign exchange outlet where you can switch to Canadian currency.
One habit that pays off everywhere, including here: decide on a spending limit for each session before you start playing, not after you have been losing or winning for an hour. It sounds basic, and yet this is the step most people quietly skip.
If you want your play to count toward rewards, you register for the My Momentum program. The service desk is on the casino floor. Signing up is free, it only takes a few minutes, and you walk away with a card you can use the same day.
My Momentum - The Loyalty Program
My Momentum is Fallsview’s loyalty program. It turns your gaming activity into points that you can redeem for things around the resort: food, hotel nights, tickets for shows, and other on-site services.
Signing up in person usually feels like this:
- Find the My Momentum desk on the main casino floor.
- Bring a government-issued ID that shows your name and date of birth.
- Fill in the registration form with your basic contact information.
- Staff print your card on the spot, no need to come back later.
- At slot machines, insert the card into the reader before you start your session.
- At table games, hand the card to the dealer or pit supervisor before you play.
- Check your points at self-serve kiosks around the floor, or by logging in online.
- Use your points toward dining, hotel rooms, entertainment, or other resort services.
You can also manage things from home. Through the login page at fallsviewcasinoresort.com/login.html, you access an online account linked to your card. There you can review how many points you have earned, look back at your points history, adjust contact preferences, and see what offers are attached to your profile. If you are thinking about a return trip, that online view makes it easier to decide when to go and what to use your balance on.
