Desert Diamond Casino, Tucson

Stayed here for a couple nights. The RV parking area is a paved parking lot with plenty of room for RV's. One camper stated they had been there for over a month. It is a little noisy with a train and airport next door. The casino is okay, but full of cigarette smoke. $10 free play for new card members and $10 off food (one time). We enjoyed a good buffet for two for only $6 (normally 2 for $25) on St. Patricks Day. Food was real good (included Prime Rib). Even came away with more money than we started with.

Report from Gary and Cathy A., February 2, 2010
As stated in the previous report, RV parking is allowed. According to Security personnel you can get a parking pass for the week.  We were told that stays less than 7 days did not require a pass.  The bicycle security were around often as was the shuttle. If you enter & exit using the last Casino driveway on Nogales Hwy (immediately before the CAT dealership) you will avoid speed bumps and automobile traffic. The only noise we noticed was in the AM - jets from the Air National Guard located across the street.
 
The lunch and dinner buffets are priced right. Quality & selection was good. You may be disappointed with the limited choices of desserts. Large selection of machines. I thought the air circulation system was poor when the Casino was crowded. Would have liked a non - smoking section.  Definitely will stay & play here again.

Report from Dick M., January 16, 2010
The new Casino, Conference Center, and Hotel are all finished. RV parking permitted in large, asphalt, level, well lighted parking lot on the south side. Some airport and railroad noise (no train horns) otherwise quiet. Shuttle is available from parking area to the casino. Watch for the speed bumps on the entrance road and in front of the buildings.
 
Buffet food was real good and a bargain at $17.80 for two. Steak room and a food court are available if you wish. Large selection of table games and slot machines in a very large casino area. They even have a new electronic, multiplayer, video craps machine that was very popular. It is a smoking casino but the air circulation system kept the air very breathable.

Happened to stop here on Wednesday and the Buffet was 2 for $14.99. Mostly Mexican food, and all was good.
If your a Vet, the Tribute card (rewards card) includes a once a month free hotel room and $10 free play twice a month. Free concert tickets too.
Nice flat area for parking, I had a shuttle driver show us where to park as I came in the auto park area.
Early Morning airplane noise, but not bad.

Fairly level lot, lots of room in the south lot. Security came over right away to explain the rules. 7 day limit and gives you a tag with all the rules. Quite noisy with the the air/road/train/generators noise.
