It should be noted that the gambling business legalization can significantly replenish the state budget. And the amount of taxes, license fees and other receipts from one large casino can be compared to the monthly budget of a small Ukrainian city.
Since the decision to legalize the gambling business in Ukraine, the holding has been tirelessly working on the new casino preparation. To open a new gambling location, the organizers had to overcome a number of difficulties. And as they say in the company, it was initially "mission impossible". It was necessary to agree with the hotel on the exact location and area of the premises, to approve all investment and operating budgets. The company did not have an exact idea of when it would be possible to open the complex due to the law on gambling equipment certification and licensing, and therefore could not plan a full-fledged opening. And the organizers were very pleasantly surprised when more than 200 people came on the launch day without advertising and without inviting foreign players from a huge database.
“I am proud of our team and the fact that in such a short time we managed to launch a casino of such a level as Shangri La Kyiv. Thus, it marked the return after more than a decade of banning the casino industry in Ukraine” – noted Michael Botcher.
So, the locals and the city guests spent an unforgettable evening. The new complex impresses with large high ceilings and huge chandeliers. It is very luxurious indeed. All gambling halls and private rooms are available at any time of the day or night and provide ideal conditions for playing. Each space has been furnished to provide guests with maximum comfort. Experienced dealers serve 20 tables in the main room, offering a variety of popular games, including roulette, blackjack, three card poker and others. Slots players will be able to enjoy the game on innovative slot machines with large HD monitors. There are 80 exciting games, including electronic roulette, from top developers EGT, IGT, Novamatic and Scientific Games, and also you can hit a great jackpot. For experienced players who want to spend time in a chamber atmosphere and play at higher bets, there is a separate entrance to the premium zone.
