Mansion Casino started out as the online casino version of Les Ambassadeurs Club, one of the most prestigious properties in the United Kingdom. Membership at their brick-and-mortar location in London requires meeting certain standards as well as a sizable annual membership fee, and playing or dining at the property requires the wearing of (at minimum) a jacket and tie.

Not so with Mansion Casino. All are welcome to come as they are to this online property, and you can play in your pyjamas if you care to. You don't have to jump through any hoops and the minimum wager amounts aren't even particularly high, but you can enjoy the kind of personalised service and luxury atmosphere that is usually reserved for the crème de la crème of British society.

Though it appears that Mansion and Les Ambassadeurs Club may have ended their relationship, the structure, look and game selection of the casino have not really changed. In fact, there have been a number of recent improvements.

A Red Carpet Welcome for First-Time Players

Given the site's pedigree, you would expect established VIP players and high rollers to be catered to. The first deposit bonus is available to (and is quite valuable to) anyone, but the terms improve greatly if you deposit a larger-than-usual amount of money.

As you can see from the bonus terms, the wagering requirement is lower than usual. 30x to 50x is more standard in the industry, particularly if you make the sort of large deposits covered in the "high roller" option. So this is really one of the more favourable welcome bonus offers out there, particularly for those who like to play slots (as all types but five specific titles contribute your full wager to the playthrough requirement).

What Loyalty Gets You at Mansion Casino

The welcome bonus is worth looking at all by itself, but Mansion keeps the action very interesting for regular players with a series of ongoing promotions.

On Saturdays and Sundays, 20:00 – 23:59 GMT is the "Golden Hour." What does that mean? For every £50 wagered at select types of roulette and blackjack, you'll get back one "Golden Chip" (up to a daily limit of five total). Each Golden Chip gives you a extra £1 wager (per round).

Drop in on Wednesdays for the Red or Black promo. If you make a deposit of at least £25, you simply type in either word as a bonus code to get some added goodies. Type in RED to get 50 £0.25 spins on Age of the Gods: God of Storms. Type BLACK for 25 £0.50 spins at Jurassic Island. A 20x wagering requirement applies and a max of £1,000 can be cashed out from bonus spins - but that's more than enough to be well worth the effort if you were planning on doing an account top-up anyway.

Fan of live dealer games? Check out the live casino cash back offer. If you plan to play at least £200 on Saturdays and Sundays, you can enjoy 50% cash back up to £10 simply by opting in before you start playing - no wagering requirement to enjoy it.

Mansion also usually has seasonal and monthly bonuses that change up over time. The monthly bonus often adds some goodies to your first deposit in that month, and the seasonal bonuses often consist of temporary codes that add a cash back percentage to some amount of your play. Exact terms will vary with whatever is currently on offer.

Finally, a referral bonus for bringing in your friends is always available. Simply email them a special signup code that gives them a £50 welcome bonus. If they play through that bonus 40x, you get £50 for yourself (subject to a 15x wagering requirement). Your friend must deposit at least £20 for this to work, and you can do it with up to 20 people. The percentage contributed to playthrough requirements by each game is the same as the welcome bonus terms listed above.

Quality Over Quantity

We don't mean to suggest that Mansion Casino has too small of a lineup of games, but the overall game count is not as large as it is at some other casinos. The game collection is curated very well, however, pared down to a more interesting selection that highlights the types of titles that people actually want to spend a lot of time with.

Here's a more detailed look at the different gaming sections that Mansion Casino has to offer:

Mansion Software: Simple but Great

For a long time, Mansion Software only made use of games from one software provider. They have recently expanded to include another leading industry name, however. Mansion makes use of software from:

We mentioned earlier that Mansion does not have one of the biggest collections of games out there, but it does have one of the best in terms of quality and graphics. Part of the smaller but more well-curated focus is the fact that they contract with just two software designers (and for most of their history, it was actually just PlayTech alone). They've chosen two of the best possible options, however. PlayTech is known for games that are both visually excellent and have great payout percentages for the player, while Betsoft is one of the few in the market that can rival them for looks.

Mansion was founded in 2004, back when it was standard for casinos to run on PC desktop and laptop software. They have since branched out to offer Apple and Android apps as well as games that run directly in your browser, however.
