Spacious and well-lit, the room has walls that are covered with lovely wallpaper and sport 7 large plasma televisions strategically placed around the room. The poker room is a vast room with gorgeous walls, floor, and ceiling: it's a separate room with huge brass-and-glass doors separating it from the casino, that are usually kept closed to reinforce the calm atmosphere inside the room. The vast marble walls and columns surrounding the room on the edges bring to mind the Roman opulence of Bellagio, and the gorgeous appointments throughout continue the theme. The center area's ceiling has been painted dark blue and dappled with tiny lights to simulate stars: they even twinkle as you watch them! To continue with the 'you're outdoors on a pleasant night' theme, the gambling tables are all under awnings or thatch or timbered roofs. The moment you walk into the casino, you're in a huge central room with extremely high arched ceilings. It's like a cross between Bellagio and Paris Las Vegas, and I mean that in the nicest way. Although it's kind of in the middle of rural Washington, it is an astoundingly fancy and gorgeous casino. The Tulalip Casino is nothing short of amazing.
