Every year, there are a host of awards that are given out in a very wide range of fields. So it’s no surprise that the world of gaming is one of them.
So the creators of the World Travel Awards, which have been celebrating excellence in travel and tourism since 1994, recently launched the World Casino Awards.
On the occasion of the second edition, the Club Montmartre located in the 18th district of Paris was rewarded.
Indeed, it was celebrated in the category France’s Best Casino 2022.
A wonderful international recognition for a small independent
Frédérique Ruggieri is a key figure in French poker. She became known through the Casino du Lac de la Magdeleine in Gujan-Mestras, which gradually became a Mecca for this card game, before becoming the boss of the Club Montmartre in Paris.
Upon learning of her recent win at the World Casino Awards, the emblematic businesswoman was understandably delighted with the news, which she says represents magnificent international recognition for a small independent.
Indeed, we must recognize that this performance is to be welcomed, especially since the Club Montmartre is not quite a casino. In fact, it’s the only one of its kind to have managed to position itself among the nominees.
In the latter, there were also a few challengers such as the Casino Le Miami in Andernos, the Casino de Pau, the Casino d’Arcachon and the Casino des Pins in Sables-d’Olonne.
There were also several extremely prestigious addresses, namely: the Casino Barrière in Bordeaux, the Casino Le Croisette in Cannes, the Casino Barrière in Deauville, the Casino Le Ruhl in Nice, the Casino Grand Cercle in Aix-les-Bains, the Casino Joa in Montrond and the Pasino in Aix-en-Provence.
The result of the other category France’s Best Casino Hotel 2022
Voting for the World Casino Awards took place between December 5 and 18. There was a wide range of categories from many countries in Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Europe, Latin America, North America and Oceania.
For France, another category was proposed. Named France’s Best Casino Hotel 2022, it was won by the 5-star Hotel and Spa Le Pavillon in La Tour de Salvagny, home of the famous Casino Le Lyon Vert.
For the record, it was the Casino Le Croisette in Cannes that was crowned France’s Best Casino 2021 and the Evian Resort that won in the France’s Best Casino Hotel 2021 category.
