An Celebrated Legacy within the Core of London
Situated inside one of Leicester Square’s very iconic buildings, the venue occupies a building which has entertained London visitors since 1900. Initially constructed as a magnificent music hall theatre, this structure underwent a extensive £40 million renovation to emerge as the capital’s premier casino venue. The Grade II listed building retains its historic grandeur whilst housing state-of-the-art gambling facilities throughout three magnificent floors covering 90,000 sq ft.
When you step into our doors at Cranbourn Street, you enter a environment where elaborate Victorian craftsmanship meets modern luxury. The original theatre’s stage arch remains a impressive focal point, now surveying the main gaming area rather than stage performances. This unique fusion of historical importance and modern entertainment makes The Hippodrome online casino an unmissable destination for both experienced players and curious visitors discovering London’s lively West End.
