Hotels in Deadwood, South Dakota

Hotels in Deadwood, South Dakota, once housed gun-slinging, card-playing outlaws, but today they cater to a more genteel crowd. While legalized gambling is a major draw, there's plenty more to do outside of the casinos. Visitors enjoy activities such as biking on trails and hiking Black Hills country on the George S. Mickelson and Centennial trails, and fishing for brookies in nearby Deerfield Lake.

Mineral Palace Hotel & Gaming

With the Black Hills as its setting, Mineral Palace Hotel & Gaming bills itself as the "biggest and best" casino in Deadwood. When not at the tables or on the surrounding trails, a carnivore's delight awaits at the Gem Steakhouse and Saloon. Amenities include on-site parking, Wi-Fi, refrigerators (in suites), room service and the main attraction: the on-premises casino. Guests can sign up for a Players Club membership to accumulate points in the casino that can be exchanged for cash, discounts and gifts.

Deadwood Dick's Suites

Featuring the smallest casino in town, Deadwood Dick's Suites might be a good place to start for beginning gamblers. Located in the historic district, it's also a good option for visitors who appreciate Wild West kitsch, spacious in-suite living rooms and views of ponderosa pine-dotted hills. The rooms start at the third floor of a converted warehouse building that's taller than those around it, making for a cozy, even romantic, perch. Amenities here come in the form of microbrews served at the bar and American fare at the restaurant. Guests who prefer to keep their activities local can pop across the street and check out Wild West artifacts at the Adams Museum.
