Hotel Siesta & Casino

Hotel Siesta & Casino is El Salvador's second largest casino and San Salvador's only hotel with casino, inaugurated in 1998 in Colonia La Sultana of Antiguo Cuscatlán. The casino features approximately 100 machines including slots, video poker and electronic bingo, and 4 gaming tables with blackjack, Caribbean poker, Texas Hold'em and roulette. The hotel and casino combination makes Siesta the only accommodation establishment with integrated casino entertainment in the entire Salvadoran capital, primarily serving Central American business tourism and short-stay visitors who prefer to stay close to nighttime entertainment.

San Salvador's only casino hotel

The absence of casino hotels in downtown San Salvador reflects the complexity of El Salvador's gaming regulatory framework, where licenses are the municipal competence and no national law establishes uniform conditions for hotel casinos. Hotel Siesta operates under Antiguo Cuscatlán municipal permits, the same municipality where Casino Colonial operates, and is the second casino entertainment option in the La Sultana area alongside that establishment. The Santa Elena and La Sultana corridor is Greater San Salvador's highest concentration area for quality nighttime entertainment.

Business tourism in San Salvador

San Salvador is El Salvador's main business hub and one of Central America's most active financial centers, with the country's main banking institutions, free trade zones, export maquilas and a concentration of services, technology and logistics companies. Central American corporate tourism visiting San Salvador has the Antiguo Cuscatlán-Santa Elena corridor as its preferred accommodation and entertainment zone, with Hotel Siesta as the accommodation-integrated casino option.
