I came across Crown Casino Melbourne while reading about major gaming venues in Victoria. I was curious about how extensive the actual gaming floor was, rather than just seeing the name repeated in travel articles. The information on Crown Casino Melbourne describes hundreds of table games, thousands of electronic gaming machines and more than 50 poker tables. I found the scale impressive, especially compared with the smaller casinos I had visited elsewhere. The resort also contains hotels, restaurants and entertainment venues, so there are plenty of alternatives to gaming. The online platform is a separate operation, which I found useful to know when comparing experiences. For an Australian visitor, the physical venue is clearly aimed at being a full entertainment destination rather than just a gaming room.
