The casino can be visited as architecture and history in the morning, while gaming rooms open later under separate age, identity, dress and admission rules. Deciding which experience you want before arriving prevents the doorway from making the budget.

Morning and afternoon are different visits
Morning opening is designed for cultural visits, with a last admission time. Gaming rooms open from 2 p.m. Check current hours before arriving rather than assuming the famous facade means every room is open all day.
The correct ID is part of the wallet
EU visitors may use a valid national identity card, while other visitors need a valid passport with a photograph. The casino explicitly rejects driving licences for gaming-room entry.
Smart attire is a real condition
The gaming rooms require smart clothing and list sportswear, beachwear, flip-flops, torn jeans and several other items as unacceptable. Checking the current dress code can save an admission plan from ending at the door.
A voucher is not free money
The afternoon ticket currently includes a EUR 10 voucher usable under stated conditions at slots, a bar or Salon Rose. Treat it as part of the paid admission package, not as a reason to spend beyond the planned visit.
The loss limit should arrive before you
Choose an amount that can disappear without affecting the hotel, transport or meal budget. Keep it separate, do not use an ATM to chase losses and leave when the amount or time limit is reached. The safest casino budget is always zero.
