Plans for a £150,000 strip club in Medway’s biggest nightspot were approved today despite residents’ fears.
Police say 40% of the Towns' violent crime stems from just one night club. Rochester's Casino Rooms nightclub accounts for '40% of Medway's violent crime' say police SUBSCRIBE AND SAVE. FREE ENTRY to Casino Rooms legendary Nightclub after the Bingo! “Bongo’s Bingo” is a separate ticketed event in the main upstairs room and Casino Rooms’ regular Saturday Nightclub.
Councillors rubber-stamped the controversial plans for Rochester’s Casino Rooms, left, at a two-hour meeting.

- The Casino Rooms. Nothing positive to really say about it really. The entry is a bit of a rip off, the staff are rather bad at their Jobs (Waited over an hour and a half to be served), the music was rather bad, the toilets were vile, the floor was sticky and looked very untidy and also noticed that there were a few people that go in who shouldn't have been (ID checking wasn't done properly).
Club owner Aaron Stone and Historic Rochester Residents’ Association chairman Philip Ruby argued whether the strip club, Tenshi, would bring down the tone of the High Street.
Mr Stone’s lawyer, Stephen Thomas, claimed the businessman had run sexual entertainment in the Casino Rooms almost every weekend since he took it over in 1992.
The law is changing in April, when venues across Britain will need separate licences to run strip shows.
Mr Thomas told councillors: “We will only advertise on the internet. No-one in Rochester High Street will necessarily know what’s going on, just as they haven’t for the last 19 years.”
The licence is the second to be granted in Medway after Charlotte’s Bar, just a few yards away in Rochester High Street.
Mr Ruby said: “One within a third of a mile is enough. This isn’t a cafe society, it’s young people getting ‘pre-loaded’ and coming down to get cheap alcohol.”
The club will take up half the ground floor of the Casino Rooms, use a separate entrance and punters will be watched constantly on at least 18 CCTV cameras.
There will be four lap-dancing booths, a VIP area with one pole and a stage with another. Conversion work is expected to take a month.
Full report of the meeting and detailed plans in the Medway Messenger, out Friday.
