The 150-room five-story hotel will include suites, a fitness center and meeting space along with 250 additional parking spaces. The new addition will be connected to Boomtown's existing facility which includes a casino, entertainment venue, restaurants and meeting space.
Construction is expected to begin within 60 days and take approximately 13 months to complete. The hotel addition will create approximately 50
new permanent jobs and more than 150 construction related jobs. Louisiana-based The Lemoine Co. will be the general contractor. +
