The May Fair, a Radisson Collection Hotel & The Palm Beach Casino

Opened in 1927, The May Fair counts 404 rooms and suites today under Edwardian Hotels and the Radisson Collection. Genting runs The Palm Beach Casino inside what was the building’s ballroom, entered separately at 30 Berkeley Street, with doors from midday to 6 am daily. Green Park station lies three minutes off.

Under one roof: The casino is inside the hotel building. You may still need to use a separate street entrance. The claim that the floor fills the old ballroom, with a private door through to the lobby, comes from review sites such as casino.org — neither operator says so itself. The two addresses share the W1J 8 postcode and the same block. Treat the internal door as unconfirmed until the hotel confirms it.
