The six casinos ran by Loto-Québec are:

• Montreal Casino
• Charlevoix Hotel-Casino
• Lac-Leamy Hotel-Casino
• Mont-Tremblant Casino
• Quebec Gaming Hall
• Trois-Rivières Gaming Hall

Quebec Casino Resorts 

So, let’s delve a little deeper into some of the top Quebec casinos to visit.

• Casino De Montreal (Montreal Casino) – Located in the former pavilion of the 1967 World's Fair, the Montreal Casino not only has iconic architecture, but it’s also the largest casino in Canada. With a gaming floor of 526,000 square feet over five floors, it has 100 table games, over 3,000 slot machines, a wide variety of restaurants and bars plus regular live entertainment. There is currently no hotel on site though.
• Charlevoix Hotel-Casino – Easily one of the most picturesque casinos you will ever see in one of the most strikingly beautiful locations, the Charlevoix Hotel-Casino is situated along the St. Lawrence River in the town of La Malbaie. Offering a more elegant casino experience, you can choose from table games, slots, or poker and stay in the world class Hôtel Fairmont Le Manoir Richelieu next door. You can also enjoy a selection of restaurants and bars while taking in the stunning views.
• Lac-Leamy Hotel-Casino – Located just a few minutes from Ottawa, the Lac-Leamy Hotel-Casino is a bustling entertainment hub offering a wide variety of casino games, restaurants, bars, a nightclub and a large performance hall. If live tables games are what you love, then you’ll be spoilt for choice with a huge variety of classics and unique variations, plus there’s a wide range of slots and electronic table games too. Plus, the Hilton hotel is right next door.

More Than Gambling

There are, of course, plenty of other reasons to visit Quebec that don’t involve casinos or gambling, and here’s a few of the most popular. 

• History – Visiting places such as Old Québec City which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Old Montreal allows guests to walk the cobbled streets and experience charming architecture and iconic landmarks such as Château Frontenac and the Notre-Dame Basilica of Montreal.
• Outdoor Adventure – Quebec offers a plethora of outdoor activities for visitors to enjoy, and spectacular views while you do them too. Cycling, hiking, kayaking, canoeing, ziplining, skiing, and even whale watching are all on offer for those who love to experience the outdoors to their maximum.
• Montmorency Falls – Located just outside of Québec City, Montmorency Falls is a breathtaking waterfall even taller than Niagara Falls. There are a variety of ways to experience it, either by cable car to the top, across a suspension bridge over the top of it, or hike along the trails in the surrounding landscape. 
• Wine – Québec has a flourishing wine industry, and you can take wine tours and visit vineyards in regions such as Estrie, Montérégie, Magog and Bromont for wine tasting. 

Important Considerations

In different parts of Canada, the legal age for visiting casinos differs between 18 and 19 years. In Quebec the legal age is 18 years or older and you will need government issued photographic ID to gain access on your first visit.

It’s also worth noting that generally Canadian casinos do not offer complimentary alcohol while gambling, but most offer some sort of free water, tea and coffee service for gamblers. Waitress service is on offer if you want to buy something a little stronger, but this is at a cost. 

Finally, in Canada, gains made from gambling by casual casino-goers is not considered income and is therefore not taxable. The only exception to this is if you are classified as a gambler by occupation.
