The charm of the game, the tinkling of the roulette ball, the rustle of the chips on the green cloth… the Casino of San Remo has always been one of the main attractions of the town. Conceived in the late 19th century and financed by the local banker Bartolomeo Acquasciati, who in 1898 paid as much as 1.2 million lira to the town council for its construction, the casino was designed in its current Art-Nouveau style by the French architect Eugenio Ferret and came to life on January 12th, 1905. Since then, there have been many scandals and legends, as rulers, celebrities, pop stars, artists and scientists have passed through its huge halls.
Indeed, there are plenty of anecdotes related to the history of the casino. For instance, it is said that Egyptian King Faruk once claimed he to win a poker game by exhibiting only three kings, stating “I am the fourth.” The famous Italian cinema director and actor Vittorio De Sica used to tell his friends: “When I go to Heaven, please put on the casino façade one of those medallions that usually adorn the ancient theatres, inscribed ‘De Sica fecit’, because I have surely paid millions to the Casino of San Remo with all of the losses I have experienced over 30 years.” The passion for the casino is often without boundaries or limits.
As the German Erika and Klaus Mann wrote on their cutting baedeker Riviera in 1930, “Gambling reigns supreme in San Remo. There are people who seem as if they want to be ruined by gambling, and they prefer to stake their finances in San Remo rather than in Montecarlo or Cannes, because if you lose in San Remo, you lose it elegantly, in a respectable way”.

On the ground floor, above the slot room, you can find the Mezzanine with an elegant bar and restaurant area, from which one can take in the scene from above.
Always from the Porta Principale one can enter the Liberty room which is split into a “smoking room” and the “Liberty Theatre”, two areas of sumptuous furnishing and décor in which to enjoy oneself in a refined and welcoming space. For those who so wish, the area dedicated to smokers acts rather like a “casino within the casino”. Proceeding towards the right from the Porta Principale you can admire the “liberty stair” (Scala Liberty) which leads to the first floor and to the traditional games.
On the first floor there are situated several rooms for traditional games and poker. Sala Cinquecento , or “the Fireplace Room”, is notable for its decorated wood ceiling inlays and the historic fireplace, with oriental paintings which recall hunting scenes and which figuratively transport guests to an elegant and wondrous 19th-century clubhouse. In the room there are spaces for socialising and there are also slot machines to while away the time. Moving on, one enters the Common Room and the Attigua Room, both dedicated to traditional games and decorated with Venetian blown-glass light fittings.
Coming after the Attigua Room, the Gio Ponti Room represents one of the most significant examples of the room’s namesake Milanese architect on the Riviera dei Fiori and nearby France. Gio Ponti (1891 - 1979) worked from the 30s to the 50s in Sanremo, Bordighera and in the Monegasque area, designing villas and hotels which still today remain ever-beautiful, such as the Marchesano and Donegani villas. The room bearing his name, built in 1953, has kept the original upholstery, furniture and vision of space which the great designer wished to give it. The same room owes something to another great Italian artist, the painter and decorator Piero Fornasetti. Today it is a multi-purpose room dedicated to tournaments.
The De Sanctis room is the games room reserved for lovers of American gaming and Texas Hold’em poker, where one can take part in various tournaments and even play the cash game. The De Sanctis room is named after its first owner – the patron of the Casino, who wanted to bring together gaming and culture, a legacy which has been handed down with care from owner to owner over the years.
Event Rooms
The Privè and Privatissimo Rooms are reserved for large national and international tournaments such as the IPT and EPT, as well as Burraco. They also host conventions. We organise banquets, meetings, exhibitions and buffets. One enters from the Liberty Stair. Entering from the Porta Teatro one finds the Sala hall or Theatre foyer dedicated to the organisation of exhibitions. Once more from the Porta Teatro you can enter the Liberty Room and from there progress to the Main Hall and to the mezzanine with electronic games and to the Teatro dell’Opera.
