The Grand Casino Basel is one of Switzerland’s eight casinos with a Type A licence and is located in the St. Johann district, right between EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse and the city centre. Only a few hundred metres separate the striking red building from the French and German borders, giving the venue an international clientele in this three-country corner. The casino is operated by Airport Casino Basel AG and opened in 2003 in a new building designed specially by Burckhardt und Partner. <\/p>\n
Across several gaming levels there are currently 338 latest-generation slot machines, playable from stakes of just one centime. There are also classic table games such as roulette, blackjack and Ultimate Texas Hold’em, plus automatic roulette on a real, fully automated wheel. The jackpot systems include the nationwide Swiss Jackpot, which can be triggered on 10 machines in Basel and promises million-franc wins. Over 21 years the venue says it has made 23 guests millionaires, with the largest single win exceeding CHF 5.6 million, tax-free. <\/p>\n
A particular feature is the resort concept: the Airport Hotel Basel is in the same building, alongside the Hangar9 restaurant, two casino bars and the in-house Metro Club with concerts, comedy and shows. Entry is free; all that is required is valid ID and a minimum age of 18. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
