Casino In Reykjavik Iceland

  1. Reykjavik Iceland Hotels
  2. Old Iceland Restaurant Reykjavik

The Reykjavik Casino Club Bar is interesting, and well to be completely honest quiet lonely. We found great humor in the place. We are not gamblers, but as we took a stroll through the downtown area one evening we stumbled across this bar and thought we could stop in for a drink if nothing else. Based on the name and what we saw inside we were unsure as to what the exact purpose of this establishment was. Was it a bar? or a Casino in the heart of Iceland’s capitol?

Reykjavik

Answer 1 of 4: Is there a hotel in Iceland where the entire hotel structure is made of ice? I've heard it is something that is rebuilt every winter. Any info would be appreciated. Icelandair Hotel Reykjavik Natura. Reykjavik, Capital Region. Reykjavik, Capital Region. At the highest point of Reykjavik this hip suites only hotel is at the peak of Nordic cool. More than a hotel, Tower Suites is an invitation to immerse yourself in the fairytale charm and epic landscapes circling Iceland’s capital. Situated within one of the country’s tallest buildings, each private suite is overflowing with designer style. There isn’t a casino in Reykjavik which is unfortunate! But there's no reason to stress, there are some fabulous neighbouring casinos, such as Rainbow Casino Aberdeen, Soul Casino Aberdeen, Grosvenor Casino Aberdeen, Genting Casino Glasgow and Grosvenor Princes Casino Glasgow.

Casino Club Bar, a bar/ betting pub in downtown Reykjavik

Upon entering this bar in Reykjavik, we found several digital gambling machines, most of which with empty seats. Most of the slot machines had very unique programming. Additionally, there was of course a bar. The drink choices were satisfactory, but not over the top. Which led me to believe that this was more likely casino type establishment. We enjoyed some Viking brew and Wine, and stayed for about an hour to just relax and enjoy the atmosphere. In the hour or so that we were there we played about $20.00 USD in the slots, and won absolutely nothing. Not a single winning pull. We saw two or three others playing constantly, and from the looks of it they were in the same boat as us. Maybe it just wasn’t our night.

The long and short of it is that if you are looking for a Casino in downtown Iceland you have found your place, if your looking for a hopping bar keep looking or try Enski Barinn, an English Pub a few streets over. Next >> Enski Barinn
