The River City Casino & Hotel in South St. Louis County, Missouri, today announced the completion of an $82 million expansion and the opening of its new hotel.
“The addition of this beautiful 200-room hotel, coupled with our Event Center and parking garage, has transformed River City Casino & Hotel into a true regional destination with world class gaming, dining, and entertainment,” says Neil Walkoff, executive vice president of operations for Pinnacle Entertainment, Inc.
Set against the backdrop of the Mississippi River, River City Casino & Hotel offers 193 guestrooms, six suites, and a Presidential suite, as well as a 14,000 square-foot multi-purpose event center. The interior and exterior design approach is New Age authentic and reflective of a Missouri riverboat town at the peak of the steamboat trade.
“This investment reflects the importance of the St. Louis market to Pinnacle Entertainment and demonstrates our ongoing commitment to meet the long-term needs of current and potential guests,” said Anthony M. Sanfilippo, CEO of Pinnacle Entertainment, Inc. “This significant property expansion will boost regional tourism while providing strong economic benefits to local residents and businesses and substantive career growth opportunities for our team members.”
