Overview
Gambling Connection: HIPPODROME CASINO LIMITED holds an active UKGC operating licence and has done so since 8 August 2011, making it one of the longer-standing licensed casino operators in the UK. It's the legal entity behind the Hippodrome Casino, one of London's best-known land-based gaming venues.
HIPPODROME CASINO LIMITED is a private limited company incorporated on 4 July 2005, registered at the Hippodrome Casino, Cranbourn Street, London WC2H 7JH. Its SIC code 92000 confirms it as a direct gambling operator rather than a holding vehicle, and its active status has been maintained without interruption across its twenty-year history.
The company's Saferwager score of 94 (A+) reflects strong governance across every category, from age and compliance through to UK residency of its officers. All current directors are UK-based, and accounts and confirmation statements are up to date. There are no outstanding charges on record.
HIPPODROME CASINO LIMITED is majority-owned by a corporate entity, with ownership concentrated at 75 to 100 percent. That structure is common for venue-based casino businesses, where a parent holding company sits above the trading entity. It doesn't affect the operational standing of the company, which remains fully active and in good regulatory health.
Governance
The board currently has seven directors, all British nationals resident in the United Kingdom. The longest-serving director has been in post since the company's incorporation in 2005. Ownership sits with a corporate PSC, Hippodrome Holdings Limited, which holds between 75 and 100 percent of shares and voting rights.
