Australia-based Crown Casinos have seen a difficult time thanks to the global recession. Recently, however, the company and its gambling venues are beginning to see some recovery, as high rollers are flocking to Crown Casinos both in Australia and around the world. The Crown Melbourne's profits accounted for most of the company's improvement over the course of the past year.
Crown Casinos raked in a $340 million net profit, and a great deal of that totalwas generated by the popular Australian gambling destination. According to Crown Casino's CEO Rowen Craigie, high roller business is the driving force behind the company's success. VIP and high roller gambling have increased by 15% at the Crown Casino in Melbourne.
The casino's restaurants and hotels – both catering to affluent clientele – also reported impressive revenues for the year. With these numbers behind them, it is likely that Crown Casinos will continue to appeal to high rollers across Australia. High-class accomodations, restaurants and gaming are all factors that contribute to a successful VIP environment and Crown Casinos will be working to improve all aspects.
Many other casinos are going in a similar direction, attempting to draw in high roller players by renovating their gaming floors to meet VIP standards.
