The building was built and opened in 1913 as a mixed use entertainment hall known as the Kursall. Due the the German connection with the name Kursall, it was re-named Villa Marina during World War I.

The building was extended in 1931 and was renovated in 2004. The main hall, known as the Royal Hall, has a seating capacity of 1,352 in stalls, tiered stalls and circle levels. It has magnificent Edwardian decorations.
