A Racino With a Unique Viewpoint

Highlights: Racetrack, hotel benefits, simulcasting, and more

Batavia Downs has over 900 video gaming machines. The minimum for most of them is 1 cent so you won’t be breaking the bank. From the end of July through December the venue holds live harness racing. The 5 dining options offer something for everyone and if you’re looking for an extended stay, the onsite hotel can accommodate you. Book through the official website to get better rates. The benefits of staying at the hotel include a complimentary breakfast and $10 free play a day at the casino. You’ll even have the ability to watch races from some of the rooms in the hotel, and for a guaranteed good view, the clubhouse is always a great place to watch.

Batavia Downs is located off New York State Exit 48 and is the area’s top entertainment destination. Located in Batavia, New York, home to just under 15,000 people, the casino is popular for locals. Coming from out of town? The Buffalo airport is a 35 minute drive from the venue. The casino isn’t the best place for the immunocompromised, however, as it can be quite smokey at times. If you’re bringing the kids along to the resort, Palm Island Water Park is a must to check out. It’s only a 10 minute walk from the casino and has 2 large water slides.
