The hotel at Pickering Casino Resort, room by room

The Pickering Casino hotel is the 275-room tower attached to the casino, open since February 2023. Standard rooms are 388 sq ft with one king or two queens, the suites run to about 775 sq ft on the top floor, and a $9.99 resort fee is added to every night. Book through the operator’s website or by phone at 905-686-4005. Check-in starts at 4 pm and check-out is by 11 am.

What follows is pulled from the operator’s hotel page and its hotel policies, read on 11 November 2026. We haven’t stayed there, so you won’t find a mattress verdict here, just what the rooms include and what the rules cost you.

Pool, gym and the rest of the amenities

Hotel guests get a pool and hot tub, a sauna and steam room, and a gym with treadmills, ellipticals and free weights. During peak periods the pool may run on a sign-up sheet, so ask at check-in if a swim matters to you. The business centre behind reception has two computers and a printer. The front desk is staffed around the clock, and parking in the covered garage is included.

The 24/7 poker room sits on the third floor of this tower and you reach it with the hotel elevators. That’s handy if you’re staying for a tournament. It also means you’ll share the lifts with players at odd hours.

Rules on age, children and pets

Only someone 19 or older can make the booking, and they’ll need government photo ID and a home address at check-in. Kids are welcome in the rooms, the lobby and the pool, but not on the gaming floor or in the restaurants located on it.

Pets: up to two cats or dogs per room, each no heavier than 50 lb. It costs $49 a night plus a one-time $49 cleaning fee, with tax on both. Pets must be leashed or in a carrier in public areas and can’t be left alone in the room. They’re not allowed on the gaming floor, in restaurants, at the pool or in the gym. Service animals pay no nightly fee but can be charged for cleaning if there’s damage.

Hotels near Pickering Casino, and what’s around

The tower is the resort’s own hotel. We haven’t vetted other hotels in Pickering or Ajax, so we won’t list them. If the casino hotel is full on a show night, compare total cost including parking before you book elsewhere along Highway 401.

The operator’s own list of nearby things to do: Pickering Village with its cafés, mini-golf and driving range about four minutes’ drive north; Deer Creek Golf Club; waterfront beaches and conservation-area trails; and downtown Whitby, with iFly indoor skydiving, Thermëa Spa Village, Reptilia Zoo and the marina.
