There are three gambling establishments in Serbia, all in Belgrade: the Coloseum casino, the Fair Play casino and the Grand Casino. The latter is located on the banks of the Danube and has three restaurants, 200 slot machines and thirty tables of American Roulette, Blackjack, Ultimate Texas Hold'em and Casino Stud Poker.
Serbia has a long and strong cultural and political ties to virtually all its neighbors, these complex relationships are not without friction. Not only that but Serbia has a rich history and some of the most developed industries here are motor vehicles, base metals, food processing, machinery, chemicals, tires, and pharmaceuticals. Gambling is also quite a popular activity here as many Serbians are more than open to the idea of wagering their money on various casino games.
The capital Belgrade is the main tourist destination of the country. Most of the land-based casinos are located in the capital, Belgrade, and they control the market. As a result, the government has been pretty slow in regulating both land-based and online gambling. There are exactly 42 gaming tables and more than 230 gaming tables in the country. Fair Play Casino at Hotel Kasina is located in the heart of the capital city. It features 32 gaming machines and nine gaming tables for blackjack, poker, and roulette.
So, illegal/underground gambling started thriving in the country and many people were participating in this activity. Although underground sports betting was a bigger problem, gambling was also hard to regulate. The city mixes different traditional and modern architectures. Following the Danube River, you will discover religious buildings, cultural monuments, and places of entertainment or relaxation. The main attractions are the Fortress, the bohemian Skadarlija district, the lively artists' district of Knez Mihailova, the Aviation Museum, Topcider Park and the Sibinjanin Janko Tower. Many other points of interest and monuments are to be found in cities such as Petrovaradin, NoviSad, Kragujevac, Smederevo or Zrenjanin.
Both casinos are situated in some of the most visited hotels in the country. The Grand Casino Beograd is situated inside Hotel Jugoslavia—which means players are open to extra hospitality services such as restaurants (Carneval Restaurant and Diva as examples), bars, accommodations (suites and single, double, triple, and quadruple rooms), the Pumpkin salon, conference halls, lounges, shops, and events. The case is similar to Fair Play Casino’s, which is at Hotel Kasina.
