Resortfinderguide is a candlelit casino and hotel set behind a Georgian townhouse facade in Edinburgh's New Town — a warm, whisky-toned floor of table games, a poker room and hundreds of slots, wrapped in suites, dining and the quiet ceremony of a proper evening out. Brass, mahogany and a lit sconce at every door.
Resortfinderguide occupies a row of restored Georgian townhouses on Abercromby Place, where a lantern above the door is the only sign you need. Inside, the party walls have come down to make one long, low-lit casino floor — eighty tables and gaming positions, a dedicated poker room and hundreds of slot machines, laid out beneath plaster cornicing and brass wall lamps that never quite reach full brightness.
This is the offline casino as an evening ritual, not a spectacle. Blackjack, roulette and baccarat are dealt across a warm central pit; craps and sic bo add a little noise to the far corner; and the private Cabinet Rooms hold the bigger stakes behind panelled doors, each named for a New Town street. Every table is run by a trained croupier, stakes are posted in plain figures, and a host is always near enough to walk a first-timer through the rules.
Around the gaming, the townhouse keeps its own pace: six restaurants and bars, a whisky-and-cigar den in the old cellar, a spa under the roof and a drawing room where a pianist plays past midnight. A night at the Lantern House can be all casino or barely any — the pour, and the choice, are entirely yours.
From the warm hum of the main room to the hush of a panelled salon, the casino at the Lantern House is arranged like a well-kept townhouse — table games, a poker room and hundreds of slots, lit low and lit warm.
The heart of the Lantern House: blackjack, roulette and baccarat around a long central pit, with a wall of slot machines glowing brass beneath the cornicing.
Panelled private salons off the main stair — greater stakes, a personal host and complete discretion, by arrangement.
A candlelit room where a pianist and the odd late singer play beside the tables — conversation and gaming, side by side.
Resortfinderguide floor covers the full spread of casino games — the classic table games of blackjack, roulette and baccarat, a dedicated poker room, craps and sic bo, and hundreds of slot machines and electronic gaming terminals, dealt late into a New Town evening.
Classic 21 across a candlelit townhouse pit, from easy minimums to high-limit shoes.
American and European wheels, turning beneath brass wall lamps.
Punto banco in the Assembly Room and, for larger stakes, the private Cabinet Rooms.
A dedicated poker room dealing nightly cash games and tournaments in the old style.
The liveliest corner of the house — dice, noise and a late crowd.
A brisk three-dice game, called the old way beneath the lanterns.
Hundreds of the latest slots and electronic table games, glowing along the panelled walls.
Elevated stakes and total discretion in the Cabinet Rooms.
There is a difference between a casino on a screen and a casino you step into off a cobbled New Town street. At the Lantern House, the casino floor is a room you can feel — the click of chips on baize, the turn of the wheel, the low murmur of a Friday night in full swing. This is a land-based casino built for people who like their gaming with a proper glass in hand.
The gaming is broad and unhurried. Sit down at blackjack and work through a shoe, watch a run at baccarat, or step into a Cabinet Room for a higher-stakes hand. The poker room spreads cash games and tournaments most nights of the week; along the panelled walls, hundreds of slot machines and electronic terminals catch the candlelight. Every casino game is posted with clear stakes, and a host is always on hand to teach a newcomer the ropes.
Resortfinderguide is a casino hotel in the fullest sense — the evening never has to end. Play until late, dine across six kitchens, take a dram in the whisky den and sleep in a suite above the New Town rooftops. A short walk from Princes Street and the Gardens, it turns a night at the tables into a proper Edinburgh evening.
And because a good house looks after its guests, responsible play is built into every table. Set your own limits, step away for a breather, or have a quiet word with a host at any hour. Resortfinderguide keeps a strict 18+ door, with photo ID checked on the way in — a warm, grown-up room where the game stays a pleasure.
Two hundred and ten suites climb through the townhouse row above the gaming, each kept to the scale and proportion of the original rooms. After the last hand, the casino is only a stair away — no taxi, no cold close, just a lantern-lit landing between you and bed.
From a New Town King to the corner Lantern Suite with its private bar and roll-top bath, every room makes a quiet case for one more dram tonight — and one more session tomorrow.
At the Lantern House, wellbeing is part of the welcome — a set of quiet safeguards that let every guest enjoy the evening with a clear head.
Set personal spend and time limits, take a timed pause, or arrange discreet self-exclusion — privately, and entirely in your hands.
Our floor hosts are trained to listen first. Whatever you need, calm and confidential support is never far from the table.
Strict 18+ admission with ID verified at the door keeps the Lantern House mature, calm and secure — always.
