Casino Hotel Information

A balanced Christchurch stay with responsible adult entertainment

The casino is a dedicated adult entertainment area within the wider Delquarian Royal Stay leisure programme. Casino access is restricted to guests aged 20 or over in accordance with New Zealand requirements. The casino experience is complemented by live leisure, cultural programming and quiet lounge spaces. Casino guests can choose to combine gaming with accommodation, wellness, dining and Christchurch activities. Our casino hotel presents clear information about age controls, responsible play and venue expectations.

The casino is designed as an optional experience rather than the only form of entertainment on site. Casino guests are encouraged to take breaks and use the hotel’s non-gaming facilities throughout their visit. The casino hotel environment prioritises discretion, comfort and responsible entertainment. Casino operations remain separated from guestrooms and wellness areas to protect a calm hospitality experience. The casino can form part of an evening itinerary that also includes dining or a scheduled performance.

Casino guest information is integrated with the wider hotel service framework for clear trip planning.
