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.

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.
For reservations and details, visit thehari.com or contact The Hari directly at +852 2129 0388 (Hong Kong) or +44 20 7858 0100 (London).

DWP Privé, the limited edition of the globally celebrated Destination Wedding Planners (DWP) Congress by QnA International, concluded its Sri Lankan chapter in style. Hosted at the iconic Cinnamon Life – City of Dreams in Colombo, the three-day event celebrated the best in luxury wedding planning, design, and hospitality with meaningful conversations, vibrant cultural exchanges, and future-shaping collaborations.
This edition brought together top wedding professionals and hospitality leaders from across the globe, all under one roof, to explore new dimensions in storytelling, event design, sustainability, and partnership-building.
Representing the host hotel partner, Sanjiv Hulugalle, Senior Vice President & General Manager, Cinnamon Life, shared a bold vision of positioning Colombo as a global luxury wedding destination. He emphasized how storytelling, innovation, and partnerships will play a central role in shaping this narrative. Lisa Mendis, Director of Events at Cinnamon Life, reflected on the impact: "As hosts, it’s been phenomenal. The exposure has put us on the international map and opened doors for more collaborations."
From the opening cocktail night to inspiring keynote sessions and creative masterclasses, DWP Privé combined business with experience. Global event designer Preston Bailey captured the essence of luxury design saying, "Don’t copy—create your own story. Uniqueness is everything in the luxury space." Meanwhile, India’s Sumant Jayakrishnan reminded young designers that design begins with storytelling, not spectacle.
The event featured insightful sessions from celebrated names such as Funke Bucknor-Obruthe, Aarti Manocha, and Nadia Duran, with a standout performance by mentalist Juliet Arndt, reinforcing the importance of positive thinking and manifestation.
Day 3 brought powerful regional voices to the forefront, including Elizabeth Solaru, Aime Bone, Mahesh Shirodkar, and Rhiannon Downie-Hurst, among others. Devika Narain led a critical conversation on sustainability in weddings, urging the industry to adopt conscious practices without compromising creativity.
The edition left a lasting impression on global attendees. Digvijay Singh of Alila Fort Bishangarh noted that discussions were already leading to business closures, while Pervez Taufiq from the USA praised the opportunity to form intimate collaborations. Guadalupe Alvarez from Mexico loved the new format, calling it “insane” in the best way.
Sidh NC, Director at QnA International, summed it up perfectly: “There’s nothing quite like DWP Privé. It’s intimate yet global, insightful yet warm. This edition in Sri Lanka reminded us why we do what we do.”
As the curtains fall on the Colombo chapter, the DWP legacy continues to grow—with the next stop already announced in Jordan.

Miiro, the international lifestyle hotel brand by InterGlobe Enterprises, has officially entered the UK hospitality scene with the launch of Templeton Garden in London’s Earl’s Court. This marks the fourth European opening for Miiro in less than a year, following its launches in Paris, Barcelona, and Gstaad, with Vienna coming up next.
Located in the culturally rich and historically literary neighbourhood of Earl’s Court, Templeton Garden brings a refined sense of calm and elegance to central London. The 156-room property offers a tranquil retreat that blends timeless English charm with contemporary design sensibilities. Many rooms overlook a beautifully curated garden, serving as the hotel’s lush green heart and a nod to the area’s leafy heritage.
Designed in collaboration with acclaimed British designers, Templeton Garden aims to be more than just a hotel—it’s a serene urban escape. Inside, guests will find inviting spaces such as The Library, featuring a curated selection of works by iconic authors, a state-of-the-art gym, Miiro’s signature Refresh Room, and a restaurant that draws inspiration from British seasons. A hand-painted mural of the garden’s flora and a rotating collection of local art lend further warmth and character to the interiors.
Indian travellers looking for a thoughtfully curated London stay will appreciate the hotel’s blend of style, soul, and local connection. Whether exploring the city's history or simply unwinding in the peaceful setting, Templeton Garden offers an authentic London experience with world-class hospitality.
Speaking on the launch, Neena Gupta, CEO of Miiro and Executive Director of Group Strategy and International Hospitality at InterGlobe Enterprises, shared, “We are delighted to celebrate the opening of Templeton Garden, the latest addition to Miiro’s growing collection of characterful boutique hotels across Europe. It beautifully embodies our promise to deliver 'Brilliantly Considered Stays' that connect guests with the local community.”
Launched in 2024, Miiro is built around the philosophy of reflection and discovery. Each property is inspired by its local surroundings, aiming to give travellers an immersive and memorable experience. Templeton Garden is no exception—elegantly understated, locally rooted, and ready to become London’s new favourite.
With properties already in Paris, Barcelona, and Gstaad, and new launches coming soon in Vienna, Miiro is quickly becoming a go-to name for boutique hotel lovers across Europe. InterGlobe also owns hotels in Amsterdam, Munich, Prague, Budapest, Hamburg, and Melbourne.
