A Historic Heritage in the Core of the capital
Located inside one of Leicester Square’s most iconic buildings, the establishment occupies a structure that has entertained London visitors since 1900. Originally constructed as an spectacular variety theatre, the structure underwent a extensive £40 million renovation to emerge as the city’s premier gaming destination. The Grade II protected building retains the architectural splendour while accommodating cutting-edge gaming facilities throughout three magnificent floors spanning 90,000 square ft.
When you walk into the doors on Cranbourn Street, you enter an environment in which elaborate Victorian craftsmanship meets contemporary luxury. The original theatre’s proscenium arch remains a stunning focal point, currently overlooking our primary gaming floor rather than theatrical performances. This unique blend of historical significance and modern amusement makes The Hippodrome casino online an must-visit venue for both seasoned players and intrigued visitors exploring London’s vibrant West End.
