Golden Gate restarts operations

Las Vegas Golden Gate hotel and casino revealed that it has reopened its doors after a remodeling.

US.- Classic Las Vegas hotel and casino, Golden Gate, has announced the beginning of operations after its remodeling phase. Late July, the casino company from downtown Las Vegas revealed its plan to double the size of the facility as part of a major renovation that the salon is carrying away.

“We maintained some of the great historical themes, but we’ve added a number of more modern amenities,” CEO and owner Derek Stevens said after a ceremony, according to Skift. The re-inaugurational event was held last Friday in the 111-year-old gaming facility, which used to host idols such as Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr. and Dean Martin.

The gaming facility was closed from August 20-25 for a significant construction phase. Approximately 100 slots were added to the casino floor, which also features a 24-foot television tower, that will be displayed like a fountain. Furthermore, the new entrance on Fremont Street features 500-pound golden velvet drapes.

“We only have 5 percent of the city’s hotel rooms, which means a trip downtown is a major part of their trip to Las Vegas,” added Stevens “They come to Las Vegas because downtown is part of that experience, not competing with the Strip, but we are a destination within a destination.”
