Las Vegas’ M Resort Adding $206 Million Second Tower, Increasing Size by 50 Percent
LAS VEGAS, NV – Las Vegas’ M Resort Spa Casino is currently in the process of adding a second tower to their property that will effectively double its size, with the cost of the new addition totaling in the amount of $206 million.
M Resort Spa Casino is a boutique hotel, spa, and casino in Henderson, which is owned by Gaming and Leisure Properties and operated by Penn Entertainment. The property currently includes a large casino and a 16-story tower with 390 rooms, and is located eight miles south of the Las Vegas Strip, making it the southernmost casino in the Las Vegas Valley.
Once completed – the timeline of which has not yet been announced – the new tower will add an additional 384 rooms, bringing the M Resort’s total to 774 rooms and suites. Along with the new rooms, the project will also create expanded meeting space and current amenities will be updated as well.
M Resort Spa Casino originally opened on March 1, 2009, amid the Great Recession; in 2010, Penn National Gaming – now Penn Entertainment – purchased $860 million in debt that the resort owed, before taking over complete ownership of the property in 2011.
Penn CEO Jay Snowden said in a press release announcing the new tower that “strong demand” prompted the decision to expand the resort, as well as their successful partnership with the Las Vegas Raiders football team, which now rents out the hotel before games.
“At the M Resort, the addition of a second tower will benefit from the strong demand in the Henderson locals market while providing additional capacity for the group business that is drawn to our market–leading resort and amenities, including our highly successful partnership with the Las Vegas Raiders” Snowden said.
The M Resort features 92,000 square feet of gaming space, including 1,900 slot machines, 64 table games, 14 poker tables, and a race and sports book.
