Live! Casino & Hotel Philadelphia opened in 2021 in the heart of the South Philadelphia stadium district. It rates 4.2 from more than 7,700 Google reviewers — the best-rated casino in Pennsylvania.
The location is unmatched in American casino gaming. The property sits steps from the homes of the Eagles, the Phillies, the Flyers and the 76ers — four professional teams in one complex, with a casino hotel in the middle of it. Nowhere else in the country puts a gaming floor inside a sports district on that scale.
What's on the floor
More than 2,100 slot machines and electronic table games, and 150 table games.
That table figure is the largest published by any Pennsylvania property, though the operator's counts combine live pit positions with electronic ones — treat it as a measure of capacity rather than a count of felt tables. Either way, this is a big, dense floor.
The poker room runs 29 tables and is the best-appointed in the state: luxury seating, individual USB charging stations at the tables, auto shufflers, cocktail service and valet parking. It spreads Texas Hold'em, Omaha and mixed games, with daily cash action and No Limit tournaments through the month.
Between this room, the 28 tables at Rivers Philadelphia and the 25 at Harrah's, Philadelphia is the strongest poker market in Pennsylvania by a distance.
The sportsbook is a FanDuel Sportsbook.
Hotel, dining and events
The hotel is a twelve-storey tower with 208 rooms, alongside a six-room event centre carrying 15,000 square feet of meeting space, a parking garage and surface lots.
The dining is the strongest in Pennsylvania casino gaming. The Prime Rib is a Zagat-rated steakhouse; Luk Fu covers Asian cuisine; Sports & Social Philly combines a sports restaurant with a gaming venue and social lounge. The 10th Street Market food hall carries Guy Fieri's Taco Joint and Guy's Burger Joint alongside Philadelphia institutions Lorenzo and Sons Pizza and Termini Bros.
Bringing genuine local names into a casino food hall rather than only national chains is unusual and it is the reason the property reads as part of the city rather than dropped into it.
Tips before you go
You must be 21 to gamble, the minimum age at every Pennsylvania casino.
The casino is open 24 hours, seven days a week.
Check the sports calendar before you go. On a game day the district is packed, parking is at a premium and the property fills from several hours before kick-off. That is either the whole appeal or the thing to avoid, depending on what you want from the evening.
