What You’re Walking Into
Preston Street is not the polished end of Brighton. It runs off Regency Square, a short stroll from the seafront, lined with long-standing restaurants and late-opening bars. Genting Casino Brighton takes up numbers 6-8, with the West Beach Hotel right next door. The street sits firmly on the local night-time circuit, so weekends get busy and stay that way until early morning.
The casino traded in the past as Mint Casino Brighton, and some sources still mention Cromwell Mint Brighton. Genting Group later folded it into their standard UK branding. The exact date hardly shows up anywhere, but at this point it functions as a regular Genting venue: licensed, regulated, and part of a larger group portfolio.

The corporate base for Genting Casinos UK Limited sits in Birmingham: First Floor, Resorts World Birmingham, Pendigo Way, B40 1PU. For an actual visit to Brighton this does not matter. For anything specific to this property, the public phone number is the one working line that appears in verified records. No email contact and no live chat are advertised.
Hours and Getting In
Doors open daily at 14:00. Official Genting Brighton information lists closing at 04:00 most days, with Saturday extended to 05:00. Some third-party directories still write 04:00 for all nights, so if timing is tight it is worth one short call ahead.
| Day | Opening | Closing |
|---|---|---|
| Monday - Friday | 14:00 | 04:00 |
| Saturday | 14:00 | 05:00 |
| Sunday | 14:00 | 04:00 |
Electronic gaming kicks off as soon as the venue opens. Live tables start later: typically from around 15:00, although a few sources mention 16:00 instead. Anyone planning to arrive right on the cusp purely for tables should confirm that slot directly with staff.
Dress code is straightforward smart casual. The Late Bar serves through to closing, with periodic drinks deals on certain nights - discounted Bottega Gold prosecco on Fridays is one example that keeps being referenced. Access is step-free; bar and toilet facilities on-site are set up for wheelchair users.
A small practical point: for a first visit, landing a bit after opening usually means a quieter floor than turning up in the middle of the evening rush, in particular on Friday and Saturday. Obvious, maybe, but it tracks with how the place runs.
What Is On The Floor
The overall gaming offer sits firmly in the middle of the market. Genting’s own copy calls it a relaxed, social space, which fits. It is not pitched as a high-stakes or VIP-first room.
Live-dealer games confirmed on-site are American Roulette, Blackjack, and Three Card Poker. Electronic roulette terminals and slots are available from the moment the doors open. Reviewer comments sometimes mention slot jackpots up to around £10,000, but that figure is not echoed in formal material and likely ties to a particular machine or an older promo instead of a fixed standard payout.
Poker appears under Genting Casino Brighton in the PokerDiscover club listing, so it is clearly been offered at some point. However, up-to-date schedules for tournaments or regular cash games are not clearly set out in public sources. If poker tables matter more than anything else on your visit, a phone check is necessary.
The exact number of tables and detailed stake ranges are not published in open directories. For a UK venue of this size, that is normal: you find the mix, minimums and maximums once you step in.
