Unveiling the Booming Casino Hotel Industry: A Global Phenomenon of Luxury and Entertainment
The world of hospitality is experiencing an unprecedented surge, and at its forefront stands the thriving casino hotel industry. With a remarkable double-digit growth within the hospitality sector over the last decade, the demand for casino hotels has skyrocketed, driven by an enchanting blend of luxury accommodation and thrilling entertainment.
In the year 2022, the global casino hotel industry boasted a substantial market value of $191 billion. As we look ahead, projections paint an even more impressive picture, with expectations soaring to an astonishing $321.4 billion by 2033. This momentum is fueled by a consistent compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.8%, painting a future of sustained expansion.
What's driving this surge? The allure of casino hotels has been capturing the imagination of travelers around the world, aligning with the growth of the tourism market. This captivating trend is intertwined with the hospitality sector's resounding growth, which has witnessed remarkable double-digit advancement over the past decade. The result? An irresistible combination that is reshaping the way people experience leisure and entertainment during their travels.
The casino hotel concept is unique, offering a fusion of luxurious accommodations and exhilarating casino facilities all under one roof. This holistic approach creates an environment that caters to diverse preferences, satisfying both the desire for comfort and the thirst for excitement. By co-locating hotels and casinos, these venues are designed to seamlessly offer the best of both worlds.
Central to the casino hotel's allure are the diverse gambling options they offer. From classic poker and blackjack to the allure of slot machines and the anticipation of roulette, these establishments cater to every gambler's heart. Moreover, their offerings extend beyond the casino floor. Guests can indulge in fine dining, unwind by the poolside, enjoy valet parking services, and relish other quintessential amenities that define a luxurious stay.
The trajectory of the casino hotel market is indeed promising. A projected 4.8% CAGR growth from 2023 to 2033 is expected, propelling the industry to the impressive $321.4 billion mark in 2033. This follows a phase of substantial growth between 2018 and 2022, where a 3.1% CAGR was witnessed.
Investors have embraced this trend, capitalizing on the extraordinary growth by establishing opulent casino hotels across prime regions. The revenue streams generated by the casino hotel industry span a wide spectrum of services, including entertainment, dining, lodging, gaming, and more, making them a preferred choice among tourists.
This surging demand aligns with changing vacation trends in emerging nations, driven by increasing disposable incomes. As traveler preferences evolve, so do the prospects of the casino hotel market. Furthermore, seasonal spikes during summer and spring contribute to heightened footfalls, as people choose to travel during favorable weather conditions.

With its striking design of leather booths, crimson banquettes, and origami-like timber ceilings, Zoku offers an intimate yet dynamic atmosphere.

Seafood takes center stage every weekend with dishes like Impepata di Cozze (black-peppered steamed mussels), Crudo di Mare (fresh seafood platter), and Ostriche e Caviale (seasonal oysters with Ossetra caviar. On Thursdays, the ‘Mussel-icious’ promotion offers endless mussels with fries and salad.

The multi-course menu showcases porcini mushrooms from northern Italy and Mediterranean figs in dishes such as Carpaccio di Fichi with Parma ham, Tagliatelle Funghi with beef cheek ragout, and Risotto Carnaroli with porcini, tomino cheese, and seasonal black truffle. Desserts include tiramisu, caramelized fig pie, or almond lemon cake. The full menu is priced at HKD688, with smaller course options starting at HKD568.

Hilton has unveiled The Marcus Portrush, a Tapestry Collection hotel, marking the debut of this upscale brand in Northern Ireland. The property features 80 elegantly designed rooms and is located along the stunning North Atlantic coastline in Portrush.
Housed in a beautifully restored Victorian building that dates back to 1895—once a hotel and artisan bakery—the £11 million ($15 million) renovation has carefully preserved historical elements such as original mosaic signage and floor mosaics.
The hotel’s opening is strategically aligned with the 153rd Open Championship, scheduled to be held at the nearby Royal Portrush Golf Club from 13–20 July 2025. This prestigious golf event returns to Northern Ireland for the first time since 2019, expected to draw a significant influx of international visitors.
Stephen Cassidy, Senior Vice President for Hilton UK & Ireland, said, “Northern Ireland has seen a strong rise in tourism in recent years, drawing travellers from around the world to experience its unique charm. As the only internationally branded hotel in Portrush, The Marcus Portrush offers high-quality accommodation with an authentic local touch, making it the perfect base for visitors eager to explore all that Northern Ireland has to offer.”
The development stems from a franchise agreement with Andras House, Northern Ireland’s largest hotel group. The new hotel is projected to contribute around £1.1 million annually through visitor spending and create more than 40 permanent local jobs, reinforcing Portrush’s position as a key tourism hub.
Earlier this year, Hilton also announced a partnership with Loughview Leisure Group to bring a DoubleTree by Hilton to Belfast City Centre, further strengthening its footprint in Northern Ireland’s hospitality market.

The Hari Hotels have unveiled a one-of-a-kind dual-destination experience—‘A Tale of Two Cities: Twin City Suite Sensation’—blending style, storytelling, and world-class hospitality across London and Hong Kong. The exclusive package offers luxurious suite stays, curated cultural explorations, and signature afternoon teas at The Hari London and The Hari Hong Kong, both designed by the acclaimed Tara Bernerd.
Guests are invited to begin their journey in either city, with a stay at The Chesham Suite in Hong Kong or The Lockhart Suite in London. While the Chesham Suite sits atop the 30-storey tower in bustling Wan Chai, offering panoramic views of Victoria Harbour, the Lockhart Suite in Belgravia offers a distinctly British charm with its fireplace, private library, and iconic London skyline views.
Each stay includes immersive local experiences tailored to their locations. In Hong Kong, guests join a guided night tour of Wan Chai, led by travel influencer @explore_hongkong, featuring unique cultural touchpoints like ‘Villain Hitting’, the historic Ding Ding Tram, and traditional tea shops. In London, guests are given a personalized Belgravia guide curated by The Hari’s head concierge Ben Malpass, filled with insider spots, from Buckingham Palace to hidden gems across West End.
Hospitality takes a decadent turn with afternoon tea for two in each city. At The Hari Hong Kong, ‘The Hari Afternoon Tea’ is served at The Lounge and The Terrace with delightful treats like matcha ice cream lollipops and snow crab tartelettes. In London, ‘Dolci Momenti’ Afternoon Tea is hosted at il Pampero, the hotel’s Italian restaurant, offering a luxurious Italian twist on British tradition—think Tiramichoux and focaccia with Parma ham.
Dr. Aron Harilela, Chairman and CEO of Harilela Hotels, said the concept is a heartfelt tribute to both cities: “It’s a celebration of the heritage, dynamism, and charm of my favourite cities.”
From curated tours and bespoke suites to gourmet indulgences and timeless elegance, this unique package is all about experiencing the best of both worlds—effortlessly, elegantly, and exclusively.
