This is an old Spa building, currently emtpy. It was also used as a Casino for a short time in the late 80's. After the filming of the Movie, they left the Casino Royal signs on doors. The building is called Kaiserbad.

Nice photos there. Thanks for sharing, and welcome to the site :tup:

Would be cool if they keep some indication of the spa being used as a CASINO ROYALE location, like with the doors of the building.

Yes, welcome!

Does it bother anyone else, or am I remembering wrong, or was the name of the place in the book the Casino at Royale-les-Eaux? Was it ever referred to as "Casino Royale" in the novel?

If I'm not mistaken, the Casino was in the town Royale-les-Eaux, but was referred to as Casino Royale.

I believe it most often referred to simply as "the casino" in the novel, sometimes "the Casino at Royale", and at least once as "Casino Royale" (When the building is being described relatively early in the book)...
