OVERVIEW
Situated a mere 20 minutes from the center of Cape Town, Sun International’s Grand West Casino has become one of the top tourist destinations for visitors to the Mother City, and a location regularly visited by Capetonians looking for quality gambling and world class entertainment.
Besides the magnificent casino complex for which Grand West Casino has become so famous, visitors can also enjoy fairground facilities, an ice skating rink, cinemas, a live music venue, a wide range of dining facilities and retail stores.
While the night life is truly amazing at this complex, it should be added that it is highly suitable for families looking to enjoy a great day out. The stunning Victorian façade of Grand West, which blends in so well with the architecture of yester-year Cape Town, attracts visitors and promises them a number one entertainment experience from their first foot through the door.
GRAND WEST CASINO
The casino at Grand West has been planned down to the last detail to provide players with one of the best gaming experiences to be had. First time players will enjoy those special touches to help them make a smooth move into the wonderful world of casino gambling, such as the Gaming Information Center.

Once on the casino floor, players will be dazzled by the over 2500 slot machines that whirr and sparkle, ring and pay out in seemingly orchestrated time. There is nothing as thrilling as the site of so many slot machines, with so many different themes, payouts and bonus features, just waiting to be explored.
The wide variety of slot machines incorporate traditional three reelers, video slots and video poker, with game denominations beginning at just 5c and rising up to R100.
There are close to 70 table games at Grand West Casino, covering all of the favorite card and table games found in some of the top casinos in the world.
