Top Rated Online Casinos for United States. One center for community, one point of contact, one concept: for the first time in the Casino's history, the Burgergemeinde of Bern has asked Director Ivo Adam to combine culture, culinary arts and events - and deliver 'everything under one roof'. The Kursaal Bern is renowned for its unique all-in-one location. These include the Congress Centre with 28 modern multifunctional rooms, the 4-star superior hotel, two restaurants as well as the Grand Casino – all under one remarkable roof.
The 7melons.ch website is now live and offers a range of online casino games to players in Switzerland.
The site will operate under Grand Casino Bern’s online gambling licence, which, secured in November last year, permits the operator to run online casino games alongside its existing land-based offering. Another Casinos Austria International property, Casino Interlaken, launched igaming under the StarVegas.ch domain in February this year.
