This is a big job, so don’t hold your breath waiting for it to be finished. “We are grateful for the continued support we have received and look forward to welcoming guests to enjoy new experiences.” “Since opening day, we have continued to exceed all expectations set for us,” said Tommy Lambert, chair of the EBCI’s Tribal Casino Gaming Enterprise. Plus, there’s a rooftop restaurant in the works! Guests can enjoy new amenities like a fitness center, an indoor pool, a full-service spa and salon, a slew of new parking space, and some electric vehicle charging stations. The hotel is going to nearly double after an additional 300 rooms are added.
This includes about 12 table games, a 10-table poker room, 400 slot machines, and a full bar. The expansion is expected to add around 25,000 square feet of gaming space. Upgrades are coming for the casino as well as the hotel.
