Instagram user Sabina, who is known as Girlvsglobe on the social media platform, posted a video about her trip to Buzz Bingo in Tooting.
In the video, she said: “This is the most beautiful building in London, that you have never heard of, I am pretty sure.
“The Beatles have performed here, Frank Sinatra, and the Rolling Stones.
“It was initially built in the 1930s, as a luxury art deco cinema, then it started hosting musicians.
“But in the 1960s, the cinema began to decline because of a lack of visitors.
“Until, in 1976, it became a bingo hall, and that’s what it is today.
“To visit you need to become a member, which is free. To me the place is completely surreal it’s like a British Las Vegas.“
The video has been liked thousands of times on Instagram, with many users describing the building as “gorgeous” or “amazing” in the comments.
One person wrote: “I went to an ABBA bingo night there, I was totally blown away by the architecture!
“I never knew how beautiful it was, the outside doesn’t do it justice.”
Another person added: “Wow, it’s so pretty.”
In the footage, there were lots of red cushioned seats, which were separated into small booths, and a number of slot machines in another room.
The walls were also decorated with ornate pieces of artwork, while large chandeliers hung from the ceiling.
Meanwhile, other tourists have also raved about Buzz Bingo on social media platform X (formerly known as Twitter).
One person wrote: “The most beautiful place in the world.”
Another person added: “It is one of the greatest interiors of London.”
Buzz Bingo is located in Tooting in South London.
The building is a short walk away from Tooting Broadway Tube station, which can be reached on the northern line from central stations like Euston, London Kings Cross, and London Bridge.
It’s open 24 hours a day, four days a week, including Saturdays and Sundays, and it’s also open between 10am to 4am for three days in the middle of the week.
Bingo games start from £3 per person.
A range of hot and cold snacks is also served, including a selection of alcoholic drinks.
And there are plenty of other beautiful bingo halls across the country too.
Previously known as The Gaumont Theatre, Mecca Bingo Hall in Taunton saw big names perform there, including The Beatles and David Bowie in the 1960s.
Meanwhile, Apollo Bingo in Wales was also built in the 1930s.
The club underwent a £500,000 renovation in 2016 with a new entrance, stage and seating.
But this isn’t the first time Sabina has been impressed by buildings in the UK.
Earlier this month, she headed to Za Za Bazaar – the biggest restaurant in the UK.
The giant Bristol restaurant is able to seat 1,000 people at a time and prices start at just £12.99 per person.
And, she even revealed how to travel to three countries for under £50 by using a very clever trick.
