Borgata Plans $13 Million Renovation
December 2, 2014
Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa has announced details of a $13 million property-wide renovation, which will take place over the next several months. Improvements include a complete redesign of the Borgata Buffet, renovations to Spa Toccare, the casino floor, front desk, Borgata suites, and back-of-the-house talent areas.
“Borgata’s market-leading casino and resort product has been its strength since it opened in 2003,” said Tom Ballance, president and COO of Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa. “Our commitment to continued development and exceeding our customers’ expectations when it comes to keeping our property fresh and inviting is of central importance in strengthening Borgata’s position as the East Coast’s premier resort destination. We are dedicated to providing a world-class, full-service guest experience, unlike anything else in the region, by investing $13 million towards our dining, spa, casino, room product and employees.”
From December 1–24, 2014 Borgata will completely renovate and redesign its award-winning buffet by devoting $2 million to porcelain stone flooring and striking resurfaced sky-like ceilings. Featuring a color scheme of warm whites, light taupe and gray tones, the space will be highlighted by its architectural details. The carpeting will offer a new take on a traditional Italian fresco, while the vertical surfaces will receive a textured, patterned wall covering paired with a conventional sconce to give the iconic buffet a comfortable, residential feel.
Named one of the “Best Casino Spas” in the country by SpaFinder, Spa Toccare will be updated including its men’s and women’s lounges as well as a complete revamp of its workout facility, the Pump Room, with the addition of new Life Fitness cardio equipment. These updates come on the heels of a $1 million makeover earlier this year, which included enhancements to Spa Toccare’s 27 treatment rooms.
The evolution of Borgata’s guest rooms began in 2012 with a complete $50 million redesign to all 1,566 Classic Guest Rooms and hotel corridors, and continues in 2015 with an additional $6 million dedicated to restyling 39 Opus Suites in addition to two 5,000-sf Residence Suites.
Starting next year, guests will experience a redesigned lobby with a complete resurfacing of the front desk, a brand new ceiling and the unveiling of an exclusive art piece located behind the check-in area. The casino floor improvements include new carpeting, wall treatments, ceiling drapery, and light fixtures, in addition to the refinishing of columns.
