Casino La Pergola, Modern architecture casino in Saint-Jean-de-Luz, France.
Casino La Pergola is a gaming establishment with contemporary design offering slot machines, blackjack tables, poker games, and electronic devices linked to progressive jackpot systems. The building houses a dining area and features architectural styling that matches the period when it was built.
After World War I, a project for a bathing establishment with a hotel-casino was entrusted to William Marcel. In early 1927 the scheme was reduced to the casino, hotel and shops, and Robert Mallet-Stevens took charge. The casino opened in 1928. In the 1950s André Pavlovsky added upper floors to house apartments.
The casino belongs to the Joa group and is named La Pergola. Its restaurant and bar serve as gathering places alongside the gaming rooms, and the building faces the bay near the port, beach and historic centre.
The casino stands facing the bay, a short walk from the port, the beach and the historic town centre, so it is easily reached on foot from those areas. The gaming rooms, restaurant, bar and reception spaces are all indoors, making the visit independent of weather. Opening hours change with the season, so check them before setting out.
