A Dutch casino hotel concept

A new Dutch escape
Land that had to be invented.
Polder Grand Casino Hotel is a fictional destination on a Dutch polder—flat, geometric, impossibly green land that was open water within living memory, pumped dry and held that way by dykes, canals and a station that never stops. The sea is higher than the breakfast room. Pale concrete, dark water and reed green run through the whole casino hotel, which is built inside the old pumping works themselves.
Cycle the dead-straight dyke roads at dawn. Watch the pumps turn over at noon, still doing the one job that keeps the whole place dry. Then step into our adults-only casino salon in the old engine hall, below a water level you can see through the window. Everything about this casino hotel depends on machinery that has to keep working, and that is the quiet thrill of the place.

Gemaal Restaurant
Flat-country cooking, done well.
Our signature restaurant sits in the old boiler house and cooks the produce of the polder around it—dairy from the dyke farms, eel and pike-perch from the canals, winter vegetables from the black polder soil, and cheese aged in the cellar below the pumps. Bread is baked twice a day, the coffee is strong, and the tall windows look out along a canal that is higher than the floor, a few steps from the casino hotel lobby.

Good to know

Essential information about this casino hotel and its adults-only casino facilities in the Netherlands.
Yes. Casino entry at this casino hotel is strictly limited to guests aged 18 or over, in line with Dutch regulations. Valid government-issued photo identification may be requested at the casino entrance.
Most guests forget within an hour, then remember with a jolt every time they see a canal running higher than the window. It is completely safe—the same system has kept this polder dry for generations, and the casino hotel simply lives inside it.
Yes, and you will hear them. A modern station does the real work now, but the historic pumps are kept running for demonstration, and the sound carries gently through parts of the casino hotel.
It is the best way to see it. Bicycles are lent to casino hotel guests at no charge, and the dead-flat, dead-straight dyke roads make for extremely easy, extremely Dutch cycling.
Yes. Adult visitors are welcome to enjoy the restaurant, bar and the casino floor without staying overnight, subject to availability and casino hotel venue conditions.
Yes. Guidance on limits, breaks, self-exclusion and independent Dutch support services should be available throughout the casino gaming area and at the casino hotel front desk.
