The steering wheel loads up in your hands. The engine note climbs behind your head. The seat pitches under braking, the rear steps out through a fast corner, and for a moment the fact that you haven't moved an inch stops mattering entirely.
SimRacing by LET ROOM is Casino Barcelona's motorsport experience, and it is a long way from an arcade cabinet. Six IMSIM Alma simulators — the same class of rig used for driver training and eSports competition — sit on motorised motion platforms that reproduce the actual physics and G-forces of racing. You feel the tyres loading and losing grip, the suspension working over kerbs, the weight transfer under braking, the exact moment traction goes. Surround-sound headphones seal you into it. The whole thing was built with Digalix, Casino Barcelona's eSports and simracing partner, and their competition team DXDROIDS SIMRACING.
Each session runs 10 to 15 minutes, and the format is versus competition mode — you race live against whoever is on the other rigs, which is why this works so well for groups. Up to six people can drive simultaneously, so a full set of friends can settle things head-to-head on the same track at the same time. The car and circuit change every week, there are weekly and monthly prizes, and lap times feed into a leaderboard you can climb.
It's genuinely accessible. Never driven a sim before? The staff set the difficulty accordingly. Done a hundred hours on a rig at home? Tell them and they'll turn the assists off and give you something to work at. No racing licence, no experience and no driving licence required — this is a simulator, not a car.
Two practical points that matter. It runs evenings only, 5pm to 1am daily, which makes it a natural pre-dinner or post-dinner add-on rather than a daytime activity. And because it sits inside a licensed casino, entry is strictly 18+ and requires original photo ID — a passport or national ID card, not a driving licence, not a photocopy, not a photo on your phone.
The simulators are at street level at the casino's main entrance on Carrer de la Marina, right at Port Olímpic, a two-minute walk from the beach.

Insiders' Tips
Bring your passport or original national ID — a driving licence won't get you in, and this is the number one reason people are turned away. Come as a group: the session runs in versus mode across six rigs, so racing friends live beats driving alone. Tell staff your actual experience level and they'll set the difficulty to match. Check the dress code before leaving your hotel, since flip-flops, swimwear, vests and large backpacks are all refused at the door. At 10–15 minutes, treat it as a sharp add-on to an evening at Port Olímpic rather than the whole plan. Noted for everything going forward — insider tips stay a single paragraph, roughly this length, five points maximum.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long is the car racing simulator session?
Each session lasts approximately 10 to 15 minutes of actual driving time. Allow around 30 minutes in total for your visit, covering arrival, ID check at the entrance, a short briefing and difficulty setup, and the session itself.
Do I need a driving licence to use the simulator?
No. There's no licence requirement and no driving experience needed — the staff adjust the difficulty settings to suit complete beginners. Note the separate point that a driving licence is not accepted as identification for entering the casino; you'll need a passport or national ID card for that.
What ID do I need to bring?
Original photo ID is mandatory for everyone. Spanish citizens need their original DNI, EU citizens need an original national ID card or passport, and non-EU visitors need an original passport. Non-EU residents of Spain should bring their residence permit. Photocopies, phone photos and driving licences are not accepted.
Is there a minimum age?
Yes — 18 and over, strictly. The simulators sit inside a licensed casino, so Spanish gaming law governs entry to the whole building. Under-18s cannot enter, cannot wait inside and cannot watch, regardless of adult accompaniment.
Can we race against each other?
Yes, and it's the best way to do it. There are six simulators running in versus competition mode, so up to six people can race head-to-head simultaneously on the same circuit. Lap times also feed into weekly and monthly leaderboards with prizes.
Is it suitable for experienced sim racers?
Very much so. These are IMSIM Alma rigs on motorised motion platforms replicating genuine racing physics and G-forces, not arcade machines. Tell the staff you're experienced and they'll raise the difficulty and strip back the assists. The car and circuit rotate every week, so there's a reason to come back.
What time is the simulator open?
SimRacing runs every day from 5pm to 1am. It's an evening-only experience, so it works best as an add-on before or after dinner at Port Olímpic rather than a daytime activity. The casino's other areas keep longer hours, but the simulators do not.
Is there a dress code?
Yes, and it's enforced at the door. Sportswear and trainers are fine, but you'll be refused entry in flip-flops, espadrilles, swimwear or sleeveless undershirts, and you can't bring in a motorcycle helmet or a large backpack. A cloakroom is available, free for normal items and chargeable for suitcases and large bags.
Where exactly do I go?
Head to the main entrance of Casino Barcelona at Carrer de la Marina 19–21 in Port Olímpic. The SimRacing area is at street level, so you won't need to go down to the gaming floors. The nearest metro is Ciutadella | Vila Olímpica on line L4, with trams T5 and T6 stopping at the same point.
