A Storied Legacy in the Centre of London
Nestled in one of Leicester Square’s very iconic buildings, our establishment occupies an structure that has entertained capital visitors from 1900. Initially constructed as a spectacular variety theatre, the building experienced a extensive £40 million refurbishment to become as the city’s foremost casino venue. This Grade II protected structure retains the architectural grandeur whilst housing cutting-edge gambling facilities across 3 magnificent floors spanning 90,000 square ft.
As you walk through our doors at Cranbourn Street, visitors enter a space in which elaborate Victorian craftsmanship meets modern opulence. The historic theatre’s stage arch stands as a stunning focal point, now surveying our main gaming floor rather than theatrical shows. This unique fusion of historic importance and modern entertainment renders thehippodromecasino.org.uk a must-visit venue for both seasoned players and curious visitors exploring London’s lively West End.
