Penn Entertainment announces M Resort Spa Casino tower opening date
The company plans to open the $206m project in December.
US.- Penn Entertainment has announced that it expects to open the second hotel tower at M Resort Spa Casino Las Vegas on December 1, pending regulatory approvals. That’s earlier than originally planned for the $206m project.
The new hotel tower will nearly double the capacity of the property south of the Las Vegas Strip, with 765 rooms and suites. The resort recently completed the transformation of its gaming floor, and it will open a new 15,000-square-foot meeting space, the Montese Ballroom, on October 1.
The company also announced it is partnering with The Emeril Group to open Meril restaurant, founded by Chef Emeril Lagasse.
M Resort Spa Casino is located on more than 90 acres on the southeast corner of St. Rose Parkway and Las Vegas Boulevard. The overall expansion will add 120 new jobs.
Jay Snowden, CEO and president of Penn Entertainment, said: “We’re thrilled to be unveiling our newest development in Henderson on the heels of our recent grand opening of the new Hollywood Casino Joliet in Illinois. This new tower and restaurant from The Emeril Group expands our market-leading amenities at M Resort and provides much needed additional room capacity for group business and the overall strong demand of the Henderson locals market.”
Todd George, executive vice president, operations for Penn, added: “We can’t wait to begin welcoming more visitors to our market-leading resort. Coupled with our extensive, expanded array of amenities and our highly successful partnership with the Las Vegas Raiders, M Resort is becoming the premier destination for visitors and convention attendees from across the country.”
