Find Casinos by London Area
Choose a London casino area based on where you are staying, how you are travelling, the games you want to play and the type of evening you have planned. Central London has the broadest choice of venues, while other areas may be more convenient for a hotel stay, shopping trip, concert, theatre booking or late-night journey home.
Central London
The main casino hub: Leicester Square, Chinatown, Soho, Covent Garden, Mayfair and Edgware Road. The practical choice for theatre, restaurants, nightlife, poker and late-night gaming.
East London
Stratford is home to Genting Casino Stratford inside Westfield Stratford City — ideal around a London Stadium event, ABBA Voyage or Stratford’s rail and Tube hub.
West London
For visitors around Kensington, Knightsbridge, Chelsea, Paddington and Hyde Park — a casino visit combined with museums, dining, shopping or the Royal Albert Hall.
North London
Better treated as a convenient starting point than a casino district: from Camden, Islington or Barnet, direct transport links reach Leicester Square, Edgware Road and Stratford.
South London
A practical base for reaching the main casino districts: from Waterloo, London Bridge, Greenwich or Clapham you travel to Central London, Edgware Road or Stratford.

What to Check Before Visiting a London Casino
London casino venues differ in atmosphere, entry rules, dress code, opening hours, table games, poker availability and food and drink facilities. A venue that is right for a late-night West End visit may not be the best option for a poker session, a quiet hotel-area evening or a first casino visit.
- Confirm the venue’s current opening hours
- Check whether the casino requires registration, membership or valid photo ID
- Review the dress code before you travel
- Check whether the games you want to play are available
- Check poker schedules, cash games, tournaments and buy-ins with the venue
- Choose a venue near your hotel, restaurant, theatre or station
- Check last Tube, train, bus and taxi options if you are staying late
