Midnight Rose Hotel & Casino

About Midnight Rose Hotel & Casino

Midnight Rose Hotel & Casino is a Colorado-licensed casino hotel at 256 East Bennett Avenue in Cripple Creek, Colorado, owned by Triple Crown Casinos. The property opened in 1992 — the first year of legal casino gaming in Colorado — and runs 386 gaming machines, a 9-table poker room with an exceptionally diverse format spread, a hotel, spa, bar, restaurant, and self-parking on a 24/7 schedule. The Triple Rewards loyalty program spans all three Triple Crown Cripple Creek properties. The minimum gambling age is 21, and gaming is regulated by the Colorado Division of Gaming. Website: midnightrose.com.

Cripple Creek’s Bennett Avenue sits at nearly 9,500 feet of elevation in Teller County, roughly 45 miles west of Colorado Springs via US-24 and Colorado 67. Midnight Rose Hotel & Casino is one of three Triple Crown Casinos properties on or near the Bennett Avenue corridor — alongside J.P. McGills Hotel & Casino and the Brass Ass Casino — giving Triple Crown one of the most significant multi-property footprints among Cripple Creek operators. The 1992 opening makes Midnight Rose one of the original licensed casinos in Colorado, with over 30 years of continuous operation at the same address.

A detected sportsbook at Midnight Rose aligns with Colorado’s retail sports betting authorization starting in 2020. A shuttle service is also detected — Triple Crown has historically offered a shuttle connecting its three Cripple Creek properties and providing guest transportation to downtown.

Poker Room

Midnight Rose Hotel & Casino’s 9-table poker room spreads 7 Card Stud, Crazy Pineapple, Omaha, Omaha Hi-Lo, and Texas Hold’em cash games.

Crazy Pineapple is a Hold’em variant in which each player receives three hole cards instead of two, and discards one card after the flop has been revealed — meaning the full three cards are in play pre-flop, increasing pre-flop action and hand strength potential before the discard reduces the hand back to two working cards. Crazy Pineapple is genuinely uncommon in US poker rooms; finding it as a regularly spread game in a 9-table poker room makes Midnight Rose Hotel & Casino one of the few addresses in Colorado — and in the country — where the format is accessible.

7 Card Stud is increasingly rare in modern casino poker rooms, having been largely displaced by No-Limit Hold’em since the mid-2000s. Players receive seven individual cards — two face down, four face up, one final card face down — with betting rounds between each card, building a five-card hand with no community cards. Omaha Hi-Lo (Omaha 8 or Better) splits the pot between the best high hand and the best qualifying low hand. The five-format poker menu at Midnight Rose is one of the most diverse in the Colorado commercial gaming market.

Gaming Floor

Beyond the poker room, Midnight Rose runs 386 gaming machines across slot machines and video poker under Colorado Limited Gaming regulations. At 386 machines, the property sits at a mid-scale position within the Cripple Creek market. No table games beyond the poker room appear in our primary games list data; confirm whether live Blackjack, Craps, or Roulette are available at midnightrose.com.
