Our take
Pick Grey Eagle for a concert, for Little Chief, for the resort feel, the free secure parking and the mountain side of the city. Pick Deerfoot if you are travelling with children who want the water park, if a pool is essential right now, or if you want the southeast off Deerfoot Trail. Both floors are 18+ and regulated by AGLC. This site takes room requests for Grey Eagle; for Deerfoot, book with that hotel directly.
Other casinos in Calgary (Ace Casino Airport next to YYC among them) have no hotel.
