Over 2,000 Slots. Slots and Video Poker At Ameristar Council Bluffs you'll find the best gaming action and excitement in all of Council Bluffs with more than 1,500 state-of-the-art slot machines with denominations ranging from one cent to $100. Of course it hasn't been used in 2020, but looked like a fun place when it's open. There was also no valet parking due to COVID. Overall, it's a small mid-west casino. It's definitely not a Vegas type with many amenities, stores, etc. We also visited the Horseshoe and Ameristar in Council Bluffs and both seemed to have better casinos.

Statement by Paul Czak, Vice President & General Manager, on the Reopening of the Ameristar Casino Hotel Council Bluffs

'While the amenities our customers have come to know and love may be somewhat limited for the time being, the ability to safely welcome back our team members and guests remains our top priority. With this in mind, we have been working closely with the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission, state and local leaders, and public health officials to finalize comprehensive Phase I reopening protocols and new health and safety precautions. Our returning team members will be trained on these procedures and our guests will see reminder signage about them throughout the property. These new protocols include, but are not limited to, the following:
