Gaming options
The gaming facilities at The Hippodrome will impress even the most seasoned international gamblers. Expertly designed for comfort and convenience as well as visual impact, The Hippodrome Casino will welcome players of all levels to enjoy an array of table and electronic games, as well as guests who simply wish to experience the Hippodrome and all it has to offer.
Visitors will pass through the elegant reception areas before accessing the main gaming hall. As they enter, they will not fail to be struck by the imposing view that greets them of modern casino games in a huge atrium, combined with the unmistakable buzz, vibrancy and excitement that a world-class casino generates.
With its full-height ceiling that stretches up to the Minstrel’s Gallery of the original theatre, decorated with the fully restored original ornate cornicing and gilding, this elegant atrium will immediately convey a sense of space, opulence and comfort not before experienced in any UK casino.
Of course, what would a casino be without its gaming rooms? The Hippodrome Casino has partnered up with one of the world’s largest gaming companies to bring three full floors of casino entertainment to its patrons. A dedicated Pokerstars LIVE deck has been created, with nothing but the very best in gaming tables and electronic games being offered to their patrons.
There are over 45 casino tables for Roulette, Blackjack, Three Card Poker, Baccarat, Pai Gow, and the new Casino War, as well as hundreds of electronic slot machines.
The poker fanatic will be thrilled to find that there are cash games being held regularly at the casino. There are also tournaments for high rollers, and the casino event hosts some of the biggest competitions in the world, including the UK & Ireland Poker Tour.
All of the games at the Hippodrome Casino offer great jackpots and are often included in their promotions. It’s a veritable Mecca for both skilled and unskilled gamers alike.
Dining options
Those less inclined to gamble have still found the Hippodrome Casino to be a majestic host. Home to the Heliot Steak House, the Hippodrome has also garnered the attention of food critics. The Heliot is found overlooking the gaming floors of the casino, so patrons of the restaurant can freely observe the action from above. Offering the best quality and value on USDA prime steak in all of London, as well as a rather extensive menu that plays on the Hippodrome’s 100-year old history, the Heliot itself is a wonder to behold.
There are also five cocktail bars located throughout the Hippodrome, for those who fancy a bit of a drink. All the Hippodrome’s bars and the Heliot can be booked for private gatherings and social events.
Entertainment and events
Besides playing host to the UKIPT, the Hippodrome Casino is also home to regular live performances by everyone from the Soho Burlesque Club to the Velma Celli Show. Musical performers range from jazz artists to blues musicians and even live bands. Let’s not forget their coverage of the world’s largest sporting events, all with special promotions tied into the casino’s many games.
Dress code
There is no dress code at the Hippodrome Casino. While many of the casino-goers may be dressed in formalwear, the administration charges this to force of habit, and encourages its patrons to dress in their most comfortable clothes. The only rule: be dressed in an acceptable fashion that won’t offend others.
Membership
Membership isn’t required at the Hippodrome Casino, meaning you could walk right in and begin playing your favourite games. The only time you will be asked for photographic ID is when you appear under 21, or gamble more than £1500. There is, however, a loyalty programme called Hippodrome Friends, which allows you to earn points upon availing of the casino’s services.
