by Mike Van Houten / Sep 26, 2016

You may have a few past recent posts of mine announcing permits for the Eldorado, Circus Circus and Silver Legacy. 

The permits filed for Circus Circus include remodeling/improvements to the William Hill Race and Sports Book, including new finishes and a new betting counter, upgrades to exterior tower lighting, the Courtyard Buffet, the Coffee Bar, the entire Midway, and the Boneyard Catina.

The Eldorado has filed permits as well as the Silver Legacy. A Canter's Deli is coming to the Silver Legacy. 

Well now the cat's out of the bag, and the Eldorado went official on it's announcement below: 

Eldorado Resorts, Inc. (NASDAQ: ERI) (“Eldorado,” “ERI,” or “the Company”) announced today that it expects to invest more than $50 million in facility enhancements to Eldorado Reno, Silver Legacy and Circus Circus Reno. Eldorado’s master plan for the three connected properties, which span eight city blocks in downtown Reno, will be phased over three years, commencing in the fourth quarter of 2016. In addition to the renovation of over 4,100 guest rooms, each of the three resorts will introduce new restaurant concepts, reinvigorated nightlife and resort amenities, including a new full service Luxury Spa, creating a new standard of lodging in the city. The Reno properties’ upgrade announcement comes on the heels of the company’s recent agreement to acquire Isle of Capri Casinos, which, upon closing, will significantly diversify Eldorado’s operations geographically and financially. 

Here's a full list of the planned upgrades: 

Highlights of the reinvestment for Eldorado’s Reno Tri-properties include:

Guestrooms

Influenced by the opulence of Eldorado, the mythical South American City of Gold, the design of new guestrooms at Eldorado Resort Casino reflects a refined and luxurious aesthetic. From elegant walls that feature a large abstract floral pattern to muted wall tones, punctuated by furnishings in walnut woods with gold accents, each room will offer a distinguished guest experience, which continues into the bathrooms, where new vanities, lighted mirrors, flooring and showers will create a spa-like setting.

Luxury Spa

Creating a game-changing two-floor experience, Eldorado’s serene and all-new spa will offer a world-class, 20,000 square-foot healing sanctuary featuring indoor and outdoor spaces, including a rooftop pool. Embodying a Zen Tahoe-style atmosphere that celebrates fitness, wellness and tranquility, the contemporary full-service spa will be in partnership with renowned designers Trilogy Spa Holdings.

Bar Centro- Bar Centro is the center of the action for downtown nightlife. Upgrades for the chic ultra-lounge, offering hand crafted cocktails and nightly drink specials, will feature additional seating, a larger dance floor, and an island bar that dazzles with a stunning rectangular chandelier. Glistening with fuchsia and amethyst offset by silver and pearl accents, Bar Centro is the place to see and be seen for happy hour, drinks with friends or a late night on the town.

Tucked into a corner of the second floor across from The Brew Brothers, Hidden Pizza will offer fresh pizza by the slice starting at 5:00 p.m. and available through the late night. The after-hours crowd looking for that perfect fourth meal will love the convenience of by-the-slice options.

    Canter's in LA is amazing and a local institution. Really hope they pull off the Reno location but I have my doubts with other total failures not bringing the vibe of the original IMHO (Hash House A Go Go for example).
