Harrah's Metropolis Casino & hotel, Riverboat casino and hotel on Ohio River, Metropolis, United States.
Harrah's Metropolis is a gaming and hotel complex designed as a riverboat casino overlooking the Ohio River in downtown Metropolis. The facility houses slot machines, table games, guest rooms, and multiple dining options all under one roof.
The complex opened in 1993 under the Players Island name and transitioned to Harrah's management later. This change brought new operational standards and service practices to the riverside location.
The casino introduces visitors to Illinois gaming traditions by maintaining its riverboat heritage while offering modern entertainment and dining experiences.
Visitors find easy highway access and parking near the facility for convenient arrival. The establishment operates continuously and provides on-site lodging for overnight stays.
The gaming floor was relocated to a separate building and uses specialized water systems to meet Illinois gambling requirements. This technical solution preserved the riverboat design while expanding play space on land.
