Rockefeller Casino in Bogota Rocks!!!- Free beers, come on man! The waitresses( not exactly ugly) remember your name and offer you a drink right when you walk in-nice! The location is key, 1 block down from Andino mall-try the casino in the mall and you will see the difference-it's not warm and friendly like the Rockefeller where people know your... More

From the reviews I read, I expected Rockefeller to be a huge casino, but upon entering, there were only about 30 slot machines (all computerized) downstairs and a handful of craps/poker tables upstairs. They gave free soft drinks to people playing the slots and free mixed drinks to those playing the tables. I lost 10,000 pesos (about $6) and pushed... More

First, want to thank you for taking the time to stop by. I'm sorry you were expecting something huge, because as you noted, huge we are not. Fortunately, I like to think our size gives us the ability to offer a definite unique environment different from the competition. "Friendly, fun, and comfortable" as noted in an earlier review. I also... More

I visited the Rockefeller twice: once in early 2010 at their old location, and once last year at the current space. It's everything you want in a Bogota casino: big enough to have several poker games (including a slightly higher-stakes game), table games, etc., but small enough to be friendly, welcoming to newcomers, and comfortable for people like me with...

It is an average casino however we did not get to play for very long before it ate all our money. Probably just bad luck but I at least like to play for a while before losing all my money. More

I walked past the Rockefeller a half a dozen times on my way to Zona Rosa before I stopped in, glad I did. Yes, granted it's not a showy Vegasesque casino but I can go to Vegas for that, this is a niche casino in Bogota that has great energy, good drinks, plenty of tables and machines to keep one... More

It is a casino that does not have anything to envy to other gambling venues in the Caribbean or Las Vegas, this is not as big and majestic as those of large chain hotels but the service and safety is first. Although we do not win this time, we take it as a moment of relaxation, as we arrived in... More

This cozy casino with an American managing partner is the perfect place for the cosmopolitan gambler visiting Colombia. You will be greeted by a valet parker, and then ushered inside where a very friendly staff provides excellent hospitality, including free drinks--a rarity in Bogota establishments. Co-owner Dan Kaiser is there every night to insure the happiness of all of his... More

I have visited this casino several times. The location is great... next to the "T Zone" (Zona T or Zona Rosa) of Bogota. Has a good crowd for Blackjack and Poker. They also have machines (if you are into that). First floor is machines and 2nd floor is tables. The staff was friendly and professional. They have poker tournaments as... More
