I received two twenty-five dollar gaming vouchers, a gift card, and a Chevron gas card. I purchased a package, mostly because I was looking at price.

All of the rooms were equipped with sound systems and very nice ceiling-mounted projects. The rooms were well-appointed, nicely lighted, and unlike other conferences I've attended, fairly quiet - often you can hear what's going on in adjoining rooms. The conference was held on the first floor Orca hall. This property has a gift shop, which we visited, a spa, and a pool, and probably other things we never got to. We had to walk through the casino to reach the restaurant area, and while we could smell cigarette smoke, it wasn't overwhelming, and we couldn't smell anything but great food in the restaurant. I guess I should lose the grey stripe in my hair, but a discount is a discount. My colleague and I were both asked if we were over 50, so we got the senior discount. The food was very good, and the price was good, too. We ate at the Eagles Buffet on the property. The queen beds in our room were very comfortable, and the pillows, which I consider to be the true mark of a great bed in any hotel, were the best I've ever slept on. It was gorgeous! Art over each bed, the best darn bathroom I've ever seen, including a massive glass-like barn door on a track, a shower with three jets, and a separate water closet. After getting our bags in, we stood back and marveled at our room. The bell boy (it seems wrong to say that!) was waiting for us at our room. After a few minutes of messing around, and talking to other guests who had experienced the same thing, we ditched that car, and went to another one, which worked. The one glitch was the elevator - when I inserted the room key, our floor would not light up. Our stay began with the valet parking, where the attendant was, well, attentive, the bell staff was responsive, check in was smooth, and then we headed to the room. This place is visually amazing! The outside scale is massive, and the interior is tall, tall ceilings, art everywhere including those ceilings, and something to look at everywhere you turn.

Recently a colleague and I were asked to present at a one-day technology conference at the property, and we decided to stay at the resort. I've driven past the Tulalip Resort Casino a few times on my way to the Seattle Premium Outlet Mall, but never thought I would have the opportunity to stay there.
