Palacio Royal Huanuco

People travelling in Huanuco generally do so en route to Lima, but if you happen to be passing through or staying, pop on over to Palacio Royal Huanuco. They offer only the lightest of gaming options, but still, it may serve as a cool little rest stop, especially if you’re back-packing and need somewhere to pick your feet up for a couple hours. The city hasn't a lot to offer, and the biggest draw actually lies 5 km outside the city.

Gaming

Palacio Royal Huanuco provides only the most basic of offerings, a mere 73 slot and video poker machines. You may find enough to kill an hour or two. Consider the casino a nice little way-station with mild entertainment, before heading back out into the city or heading off to your next destination. Spin and try your luck as you get your bearings and plan the next step of your travels.

Hotel/Accommodations

There are no hotels on site. Prepare for a good walk or flag a taxi as the nearest is 4 km from the casino. The Giulihe Hotel provides excellent views with its large terrace and can serve as a nice little escape from the husle and bustle of city life. Relax and plan your itinerary, take in a good book, or indulge in some much needed down-time, simply soaking up the scenery.

Dining

There are no dining facilities on site. About a block from the centre plaza you can find Govinda’s with its vegetarian menu. Use the opportunity to taste local produce served up with rice and tofu. Chat up your hotel or casino staff about popular eateries close to either location, based on interest or budget. Consider finding you own hidden gem, dishing up authentic South American cuisine. You may prefer to shop for local produce and creating your own lunches.

Entertainment/Nightlife

For drinks, consider La Fontana and Boom. Be sure to try a Pisco Sour at this local pub or walk around and find your own bar and spend some time chatting up locals. Tour into Kotosh, 5 km outside of Huancayo and its archaeological site, the Temple of Kotosh (or Temple of the Crossed Hands) with mud moldings dating back to 2000 BC. Talk to hotel and casino staff about lesser-known yet interesting attractions specific to the area.

Rewards/Deals

There are currently no player rewards systems in place. Talk to a casino host or hostess about any potential contests or promotions that may be running during your stay.
