A Celebrated History in the Centre of London
Located in one of Leicester Square’s very celebrated buildings, our establishment resides in an building which has entertained London audiences since 1900. Originally built as a spectacular music hall theatre, the building underwent an transformative £40 million refurbishment to emerge as the capital’s premier gaming venue. The Grade II listed building preserves its historic grandeur whilst housing cutting-edge gaming amenities across three magnificent floors spanning 90,000 square feet.
As visitors walk through our doors on Cranbourn Street, you enter a environment where ornate Victorian craftsmanship combines with contemporary opulence. The original theatre’s stage arch remains a stunning focal point, now overlooking the primary gaming area rather than theatrical shows. This unique blend of historical significance and modern amusement renders TheHippodrome casino a unmissable venue for both seasoned players and intrigued visitors discovering London’s vibrant West End.
