Grosvenor Casino Barracuda London

Located on the same street as the legendary Sherlock Holmes, the Grosvenor Casino Barracuda, London is in the centre of the capital. Formerly a Gala casino until its acquisition by the Rank Grosvenor group in 2013, the Barracuda has the feel of a traditional Las Vegas casino.

The nearest airport is London City airport – 12 miles away with London’s Heathrow airport 18 miles from the casino. Drivers are able to avail themselves of 24 hours valet parking but will need to pay the London Congestion charge of £10 daily. The casino is easily accessible by public transport with the nearest tube stations Marble Arch and Baker Street. The casino is about a mile from Euston and Kings Cross mainline stations. London offers a choice of hotels – the nearest being the Hyatt Regency, the Radisson Blu Portman and the Wigmore Court Hotel.

The Barracuda Casino features roulette, blackjack, Punto Banco and three card poker as well as state-of-the-art electronic roulette and slot machines with a jackpot of £10,000 on a selection of slots. There is one three card poker table but no dedicated poker room. The stakes are quite high in general, card tables are £5 minimum, and the Roulette £1/£2 depending on the time of day. The White Room, a plush function room, is available for even higher stakes and private gaming. Members can earn points with the Grosvenor Players Reward scheme when playing, dining or drinking at the casino.

Events come in the form of monthly music with most major sporting fixtures covered. The a la carte restaurant is open 24 hours and offers menus from French, Arabic, Indian and Chinese cuisines.
