The Opulence of the Best Viennese Casinos

Paying a visit to the city that invented the snow globe (yes, this really is true!) is like stepping into a life-sized version of one. In the winter, Vienna is a glittering example of classic European elegance and cosiness- like looking at a Christmas card. It is the home of some of the world’s most beautiful music (Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven), over 450 luxurious dances and balls every year, and a beacon of oenophile (wine lover) taste. Casino culture in this exquisite European capital is also rich and enticing, and many visitors to the city enjoy themselves immensely when they visit. Let’s take a look at some of the best and most interesting Viennese casinos to visit.

Casino Wein

The imposing European facade of this beautifully lit building welcomes customers looking for a little break from reality and a good time. Esterhazy Palace’s relaxed but still elegant atmosphere has created a gambling location that feels like a little window into the lives of the rich and famous. Spread across four extravagant floors, Casino Wein contains a multitude of casino games for every kind of gambler.

The upper floors are home to a variety of international games with a slightly more upmarket feel, while the gambling that takes place on the ground floor (the Jackpot Casino) is a little bit more relaxed and casual. The Casino Bar is there when you’re tired and in need of refreshment- stay a while and sip on a delicious cocktail! If you’re more in the mood for a full meal, book a table at the Red and Grey Salon in the casino’s luxury restaurant “Cuisino”.

Concord Card Casino

This card casino offers tables and tournaments and a range of very comfortable, welcoming services. If you’re a smoker, the cash game room is a smoke-friendly section of the casino where you can indulge in your favourite cash games and enjoy a cigarette at the same time. If you find yourself at the casino early in the morning after a full night of gambling fun, you may be treated to a free, delicious breakfast! Gamblers come to Concord from all over the world, and the typical Viennese hospitality shown at the location brings them back time and again.

The WinWin Monte Laa

If you do not have an excess of spare time but would still like to indulge in your favourite casino games while you’re in town, stop by the WinWin Monte Laa for a quick game or two. The modern ambience of the space, combined with the elegant and refined design, creates a welcoming place for gambling fans to spend a little time. There are seven VIP lottery terminals featuring a range of luxurious accouterments (buffalo leather chairs and golden railings) that positively radiate opulence. The staff are friendly and very well trained, which makes any visit an enjoyable one. If you find yourself needing a little nibble, there are hot meals, snacks and drinks available late into the evening. Classic red carpeting, illuminated mirrors and wide staircases add an air of grandeur to the casino, which is a lovely touch.

Viennas Casinos

Your Viennese trip is always going to be a culturally rich and aesthetically pleasing one, but adding a visit to any of these exciting casinos into the mix will add a new dimension to your experience of Austrian entertainment.
