Yes. The morning guided tour exists precisely for that: you enter in ordinary clothes, see the rooms and hear the history, with the tables closed. It is the right option if you only want the architecture and the story.
For the morning tour there is none in particular. For evening play the rules are strict: jacket and tie for men, and appropriate dress for women. Jackets and ties can be hired at the entrance for a fee.
The nearby Friedrichsbad, the Lichtentaler Allee that begins right outside, and the small old town. Baden-Baden is compact enough to walk the whole centre in a day.

The Kurhaus in Baden-Baden is a white-columned nineteenth-century classical building housing Germany's most famous casino. In that century the town drew the kings and rich of Europe, who came to take its hot spring waters, and the Kurhaus was the centre of their social life. The interiors are decorated in the French manner with gold, chandeliers and mirrors — said to be the handsomest casino rooms in the world. In the mornings guided tours let visitors in, in ordinary clothes, to see the rooms. In the evening the casino opens for play, with a strict dress code: jacket and tie for men.

A classical white-columned façade facing a tree-lined promenade — the town's emblem.
A long riverside promenade starting in front of the building — the finest walk in Baden-Baden.
