(short): Casinos in Salto and other cities (Uruguay)

Casinos in Salto and other cities

Somersault - "terms during the day, game in the evening"

Salto Hotel & Casino is located in the very center, at Plaza Artigas, 10 km from Daymán hot springs: a convenient base for the weekend "wellness + casino." In the complex - hotel 4, restaurant, pool, fitness and hall with slots/electronic roulettes; the official website gives the address and infrastructure, a separate page - about the game room.

Why go: A mix of thermal resorts and evening entertainment within walking distance; for car trips - proximity to the border with Argentina via the Salto Grande Bridge.

Rivera - border resort "two cities - one center"

Rivera Casino & Resort - complex 4 with two halls (slots and "pans" with roulette/blackjack), restaurants, spa, swimming pools and event venues; located near the border with the Brazilian Santana do Livramento (tens of meters to the center of Brazil).

Why go: shopping in the duty-free zone and the "through" pedestrian center of the two cities plus a full range of resort services on the spot.

Atlantis - an easy seaside weekend near the capital

Sala Atlántida (DGC) is a compact hall on the coast 45-60 minutes from Montevideo: slots, electronic roulettes, a snack bar. A good option "sea during the day - slots in the evening" for a family trip without long travel. The official MEF/DGC card gives the address and services.

Carmelo - "wine and tranquility"

Hotel Casino Carmelo - a small casino hotel in the wine zone of the Colony department; suitable for those who go for wineries and river atmosphere (Uruguay/La Plata delta), and in the evening they want a compact playroom. Information pages and aggregators indicate the address to Av. José Enrique Rodó and basic services.

Montevideo (Parque Rodó) - metropolitan classic outside Carrasco

As well as the luxury Carrasco, the capital has the Casino Parque Hotel next to Rodó Park and Rambla. It is a traditional venue with restaurant infrastructure and a hotel; industry directories provide data on the area of ​ ​ the hall and services.

(Bonus) Nogaro - if you still stop by in Punta del Este

The historic Casino Nogaró on the Gorlero boardwalk is a good "evening after the beach": slots, tables after 8pm (roulette, punto y banca, blackjack). The official website and travel guides emphasize the status of the legend of the peninsula.

How to choose a route

Wellness + game: Somersault - Daymán terms and casino night.

Shopping on the border + resort: Rivera is a "double" city and a full resort set.

Short seaside weekend from Montevideo: Atlantis.

Wine and chamber: Carmelo.

Metropolitan "old school": Parque Hotel.

Legal and fiscal context (short)

Offline casino - the sphere of the state (DGC) with direct operation and/or concessions; MEF publishes lists of halls and contacts.

From August 12, 2025, the updated regulation of Impuesto a las Apuestas (IA) is in effect: 0.75% of the amount of each bet (chips, cash, electronic funds). The payer is the player, but the operator holds and lists in the DGI as the "responsible substitute." Text - in the IMPO database and on the Presidency website; there are industry clarifications (KPMG/legal firms).

Travel tips

Seasonality: It is better to combine somersaults with warm springs all year round; Rivera and Atlantis - convenient for short trips. Check the infrastructure and opening hours on the official pages of the halls.

Etiquette and age: entry 18 +; dress code - smart casual/free resort, but without sports beachwear in the evening (check local rules).

Responsible play: DGC leads a help line and reminds of the principles of "play responsibly."

If Punta del Este is already in the plans, add to the route Salto, Rivera, Atlantis, Carmelo and Parque Hotel in Montevideo - you get a diverse "geography of games": from a thermal wellness weekend to a border resort and short sea trips. All sites operate in the state DGC model, and financial rules are transparent: 0.75% from each rate, withholding - on the operator.
