Wondering what the casino is like on the MSC Poesia? During our 7-night Alaska cruise, we took a walking tour of Casino Royal, the ship’s casino located on Deck 7 towards the front of the ship. From slot machines and table games to the casino bar, we wanted to give you a closer look at what to expect before your cruise.
Casino Royal has a colourful, elegant atmosphere with large chandeliers, red carpeting, and rows of slot machines surrounding the central table games area. We filmed our tour shortly after boarding while the casino was closed, giving us a great opportunity to explore the space.
