ADVENTURE
Get away to a winter wonderland in the picturesque Catskill Mountain region, with snow-capped trees and mountain views. Resorts World Catskills is ideally located to offer access to the area’s best winter activities, and each of the 332 rooms in the all-suite hotel and parts of the gaming floor includes a full wall of windows so you can enjoy the scenic views without having to step outside.

Because the area is home to some of New York’s best mountain resorts for skiers and snowboarders of all levels, it also offers a variety of groomed and backcountry trails ideal for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and snowmobiling. The casino resort’s full-service concierge is available 24 hours a day to arrange for an action-packed visit.

LUXURY
The impeccably designed rooms in the all-suite hotel are the ideal place to recharge, as they exude luxury across every perfectly appointed inch, ranging from 600 square feet to palatial penthouses reaching over 2,000 square feet.

Relax indoors at the Crystal Life Spa and indulge in holistic treatments that offer the serenity that only a mountain setting can provide. The spa includes six treatment rooms for massages, facials and full body treatments, hair and nail salons, relaxation lounges with luxurious amenities, steam rooms, and saunas, and a sun-drenched indoor Spa pool with cabanas, which offer an amazing winter escape.

GAMING & ENTERTAINMENT
The 100,000-square-foot casino floor showcases 150 live Las Vegas-style table games that include Blackjack, Craps, Baccarat, Roulette, and Pai Gow Tiles, state-of-the-art slot machines, a poker room and the exclusive Palace High Limit gaming area that offers private gaming salons and a VIP lounge for top-tier players.

Resorts World Catskills entertains every weekend with acts ranging from local favorites rotating between the three casino bar and lounge stages to megastars such as Jerry Seinfeld, The Fray, and Sebastian Maniscalco in the 27,000-square-foot RW Epicenter.

DINING
Tempt your palate with ten varied options for dining and drinking. Resorts World Catskills has options that please every appetite, from the 24/7 Diner for its creative twist on comfort food classics. Everything from fluffy buttermilk pancakes and brioche French toast to Philly cheesesteaks and flame-grilled rib eye tops the menu. Or perhaps your tastes crave the exotic. If so, Lotus should satisfy. Authentic Chinese delicacies including Honey Lemon Chicken or Peking Duck will delight. Be sure to top off the night with a cocktail at the speakeasy-style Empire Lounge. For an elegant taste of New York City, dine at Cellaio, the Italian-inspired steak house by celebrity chef Scott Conant, which features a wine menu that includes over 500 different bottles.
