If you’re looking for some fresh designs and cutting-edge user experience then maybe it is best to steer away. With a design resembling an actual old-fashioned hotel, I really didn’t know what to expect from the Grand Hotel Casino.
But old-fashioned was about right. The casino is inaccessible via browser and to play you will need to download the software. Although when I downloaded the software it still kept freezing and I wasn’t able to experience this casino on desktop.
This is when I switched to my mobile phone. I managed to create an account and start playing with a good overall experience, but only on my phone.
There has never been a better time to sign up to Grand Hotel Casino. There is a welcome package worth £560 waiting for you:
- 1st deposit: 100% match bonus up to £100
- 2nd deposit: 50% match bonus up to £150
- 3rd deposit: 30% match bonus up to £150
- 4th deposit: 20% match bonus up to £160

There is a 200x wagering requirement on the welcome bonus. And I did ask myself a few times whether it was really worth opting in. But it’s hard to say no to free money so I accepted the terms and conditions and went for the bonus. Having said that, wagering £8,000 for a £40 bonus is just way too high and also way above industry standards.
There is an issue with the bonus in that it isn’t immediately credited to your account as soon as you deposit. I was 15 minutes into some gameplay when the bonus suddenly appeared. One second my balance was around £40, the next, it jumped to £82 as I also scored a good spin.

There is nothing grand about the selection of games at Grand Hotel Casino. The only provider which is really worth mentioning in Microgaming.
On the first page, I noticed they had the option to download HD software. Is this even still a thing? I downloaded the software but after the initial launch animation the software just freezes. This means it was impossible for me to play on desktop and everything was done via mobile.
I tried a few of the games which were meant to be “exclusive” to the casino. Games such Immortal Creatures might look good as a thumbnail but that’s just about as exciting as this is going to get. After a few rounds I was so bored I was wondering why I was wasting my money on such a dull game.
Back to the lobby, I went and I decided to inject some fun into my day with the help of MegaMoolah. As always I was on the hunt for the Mega Wheel. In all my hours of gameplay, I only managed to trigger this once so whenever a casino offers the game I tend to stick with it. I spent a good hour on MegaMoolah and managed to trigger the bonus round around 8 times. Once I even won a neat £18 with a 25p bet.
Alas, the Mega Wheel was nowhere to be seen so I had to admit defeat and go back to the lobby to look at what else is on offer. Sadly, that’s about it. There is no live casino to be found which is very disappointing considering there aren’t many slots available to begin with.
Oh well, back to MegaMoolah I went.

I accessed the casino via the Chrome app on my iOS device. I don’t have anything to compare the mobile version with since the casino is not accessible via the browser on desktop.
Having said that, the casino behaves well on mobile. Gameplay was smooth and it was easy to go through the casino’s different areas. The games do render well in portrait mode but switch to landscape and they just look too small for the screen.
I also noticed the casino drained my battery really quickly so do keep an eye out for that. My phone also got quite hot which is something that it doesn’t normally do. To be fair, I did spend over an hour playing MegaMoolah.

I couldn’t find a way to register an account without downloading the software. At least I was able to use my phone to register the account. The process is quite easy and I created the account in less than a minute.
There is one thing however that I don’t understand. Instead of logging in using your email you will be assigned a jumble of letters and numbers as the username. Now my memory is good but there is no way I would be able to remember this, so I wrote it down and went on the deposit.
In the meantime, I receive a welcome email letting me know my username and what the welcome offer consists of. At no point was I asked to verify my email or phone number. Even when it came to withdrawing I didn’t need to send in any documentation.
With several deposit and withdrawal methods available at your disposal, Grand Hotel Casino has made it easy to kick-start your online gambling journey.
Simply pick one of the below banking methods:
- Debit Cards
- EWallets
- Prepaid Vouchers

When it comes to money transfers, the Grand Hotel Casino are serious. There are so many ways you can deposit. The whole process is swift and painless (unlike trying to use their casino on desktop). Just keep in mind it will take some time for your welcome bonus to make an appearance.
Withdrawing is incredibly easy too. The bonus is forfeited if you haven’t reached your wagering requirements. In less than a minute I was able to cash out. There are no processing fees involved when withdrawing and the site informed me it will take 1 business day for the withdrawal to be processed. After around 36 I received an email saying this was successful processed. Two days later the money was in my account.
