Hotel in Queensland (Gold Coast - Surfers)

Conrad Jupiters Casino

Conrad Jupiters, situated in the heart of Queensland's glorious Gold Coast, remains a benchmark for casino-hotel operations in Australia after 10 years as the largest and most successful facility of it's type nationwide.

Located on Broadbeach Island in the centre of Australia's tourist capital, the complex opened in November, 1985 and immediately set new standards for casino, hotel and convention facilities.
 
An architectural masterpiece and imposing national landmark, Conrad Jupiters is set amongst six hectacres of landscaped gardens and parkland. The gardens of Conrad Jupiters represent the largest private landscaping program undertaken in Australia. Around 30,000 trees and shrubs were planted to transform the six hectacre island into a lush, sub-tropical and recreation area, the centrepiece of which is the Mediterranean-style pools, as well as fountains and waterfalls. Queensland sandstone is used in all paved walkways. 
 
The sub-tropical flavour of the landscaping is extended to the light-filled Atrium which links the casino and hotel. Here, lush plants grow under the stressed, translucent membrane roof.

Conrad Jupiters is a landmark of which the Gold Coast and Australia is very proud - a distinctive complex of international standards, offering the widest possible range of quality entertainment and facilities for both visitors and residents.

Gaming
The heart of the complex is undoubtedly the 24-hour, seven-day-a-week Jupiters Casino, named after an Aboriginal youth from Charters Towers district of Northern Queensland who stumbled upon gold 100 years ago while searching for a wayward horse.

Covering some 5574 square metres on two levels, Jupiters Casino is set against the spectacular backdrop of Hotel Conrad. Jupiters Casino provides more than 110 gambling tables where guests can play Roulette, Blackjack, Baccarat, Mini Baccart, Sic-bo, Carribean Stud and Pai Gow, as well as Australia's very own game Two-Up which is an exciting new experience for overseas visitors. Guests can also try their luck at Keno or more than 1000 Slot Machines.

The V.I.P. gaming room Club Conrad adds another dimension of style and choice to the existing two casino levels.

Admission to the casino is complimentary and registration is not required. Guests of 18 years and over are welcome to enjoy the excitement and hospitality of Jupiters Casino.

Another major entertainment attraction is the 1000 seat Showroom where major productions, including "Starz", "Hollywood Legends", "Live From the Roosevelt" and "Tropical Nights" have played to packed houses. The current show, "Mystique", is proving just as popular with both domestic and overseas visitors.

Conrad Jupiters is Australia's only casino-hotel complex with a fully-fledged theatre box office, staging, lighting and sound equipment. A staff of 100 highly-skilled technicians and production workers are associated with the running of the Showroom.
