Tower Casino London
Part of the Grosvenor Casinos Group, the Park Tower Casino is located in the Knightsbridge neighborhood of London, UK, near iconic stores such as Harrods and Harvey Nichols, which is considered West London south of Hyde Park. The casino is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week and you must be 18 years of age or older to play. One unique attribute we found interesting is that there is an informal enforcement of a dress code. Players who wear sports attire, such as shorts, may not be permitted to enter and play. The casino characterizes the dress code as, smart casual.
The Tower Hotel is a large hotel situated on the north bank of the River Thames, on the east side of Tower Bridge, in London. The hotel was designed by the Renton Howard Wood Partnership, and constructed by Taylor Woodrow for owners J. Lyons & Co., and opened in September 1973. The Park Tower Casino in London has already established itself as one of the most exclusive locations in the English capital. The Park Tower itself is a piece of prime real estate in the Knightsbridge area of London - right next to the world famous Hyde Park.
Grosvenor Casinos is owned by The Rank Group, a gaming operator, with market share in the UK, Spain, and Belgium. The casino itself is situated below The Park Tower Knightsbridge hotel and the nearest tube station is Knightsbridge, about a minute (or two) walk from the casino and hotel.
If you are visiting from out of town or another country, the Park Tower is located 16 miles from London’s Heathrow International Airport, and nine miles from London City Airport. As the casino is located in a heavily populated part of London, there are of course several other hotel options within the immediate area.
While the tube is the most practical way to travel in London if you are driving there are valet and self-parking available. There are several independent parking options surrounding the casino, which will most likely cost you between £6-£15 per day.
