The Hippodrome Casino

The Hippodrome Casino is widely regarded as one of the most spectacular casino venues in Europe, occupying a magnificent grade II listed building at the corner of Cranbourn Street and Charing Cross Road in the heart of London’s West End. Originally built in 1900 as a circus venue and later transformed into a famous music hall, the Hippodrome underwent a comprehensive renovation and reopened as a premium casino and entertainment complex in 2012. Spread across six floors, the venue offers a vast array of gaming options including over 100 slot machines, electronic table games, and a comprehensive live gaming floor featuring roulette, blackjack, three card poker, baccarat, and a dedicated poker room with regular tournaments. Beyond gaming, the Hippodrome is renowned for its world-class entertainment, including a resident magic show, comedy nights, and major live music performances in the 180-seat theatre. Multiple bars and restaurants serve guests throughout the building, ranging from casual dining to sophisticated cocktail lounges. The venue operates under a full UK Gambling Commission licence and enforces responsible gaming practices at all times. Guests must be 18 or over and are asked to carry valid identification. Located steps from Leicester Square tube station, the Hippodrome is easily reachable from all parts of London and remains open until the early hours of the morning seven days a week.
