Full House Resorts has declared that Rising Sun Regional Foundation and Rising Sun/Ohio County first have partnered to build a new hotel with a 100 room capacity over the land presently possessed by it at the Rising Star Casino Resort owned by it.
The construction of the new hotel is anticipated to commence by December 2011 and is expected to get completed in the last quarter of the year 2012.
The company has also unveiled its present project of renovating and upgrading around 40 rooms from the total of 201 rooms in its hotel into upgraded connecting rooms and suites during the next four to six months period. The completion of the renovation process will enable the hotel to have a total of 190 rooms, which includes higher-end suites and upgraded rooms.
According to Andre Hilliou, Full House Resorts’ Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, the Rising Star Casino Resort Hotel most of the time functions with near total occupancy and the adding up of a new hotel with 100 rooms will make it more competitive, enthuse and protect the local economy with more number of local jobs ensuring a regular and secure revenue source for the city in future.
