(UK).- Grosvenor Casinos, operated by Rank Group, has opened Southend casino inside the renovated Park Inn Palace Hotel. It has a sports lounge, gaming tables, slot machines, electronic roulette, a poker room and a VIP high stakes Gold Room.
Following a huge renovation project on the Park Inn hundreds of guest and VIPs were invited to the unveiling of the casino within the Grade 2 listed building.
Southend now has three casinos following the opening of the Grosvenor casino. Amy Culora, head of PR at Grosvenor, said: “We wanted to start as we mean to go on. We want people to enjoy it. Only a small per cent of people have ever been in a casino and everyone has their views on what it is like, but we view it as an entertainment venue.
“We have a semi-open door policy, so for the restaurant, bar and sports lounge people can just walk in. For gaming, we ask people to register, to be a responsible operator.
“Southend is our trial of going semi-open door.”
