Crown Sydney has undergone a quiet transformation across a single floor of the iconic Barangaroo Tower — its highly anticipated gaming floor.
You’re no stranger to the hospitality Mecca by now, which has been a magnet for guests the world over who appreciate award-winning dining, opulent accommodation, the lush pool deck and even a Forbes 5-star rated spa.
Now, the resurrection of the gaming facilities completes the final piece of the puzzle for the property with perhaps the most impressive view from a casino floor in Australia; uninterrupted harbour views peered through its mighty floor-to-ceiling glass windows. Windows and natural light on a casino floor? It’s unlike anything this country’s ever seen.
Access to the Mahogany Casino gaming floor is open to anyone1 above the age of 18, and it doesn’t cost a cent to become a member. Just apply on the website before you go (24 hours prior for NSW residents), or at the Crown Rewards desk on Level 2 — a breeze (24-hour cooling off period still applies for NSW residents). Guests who live interstate or are visiting from overseas are also permitted to play on arrival with no application necessary (after applying successfully for a membership).
As for the floor itself, it’s your classic adult playground of possibilities with crowd favourites like Baccarat and Roulette to the modern thrillers like Ultimate Texas Hold ‘Em and Electronic Table Games. Minimum bets start at an achievable $25. Eligible guests can also access additional table games in the private Sky Salons on level 28 and enjoy some of the city’s sky-high vistas.
Interestingly, the wrap-around al-fresco deck is not only a perfect perch to enjoy the sunset or a drink with friends, it also hosts an outdoor gaming area so you can get the best of both worlds. The rear lounge area with screens to catch live sport is a great spot to unwind while never being far from the table action.
Crown Sydney’s gaming hiatus and long-awaited resurrection have also allowed the property to add a few extra layers of protection to enhance the guest experience.
CEO Mark McWhinnie shared: “We’ve invested millions not just for the experience but for guest safety. Crown Sydney is now a world-class integrated resort.”
Under the guise of the Crown PlaySafe initiative, the resort has doubled down on gambling harm minimisation and financial crime detection. For example, there are strict controls around funds transferred into the casino and on-site preventative support offered to all guests.
For all the deets on the Crown Sydney gaming floor and to apply now, register at the website below. The dice are hot, the cards are shuffled, and the champagne’s on ice. Drop in from any time today, Friday February 2nd.
