LAS VEGAS – M Resort Spa Casino, the Official Team Headquarters Hotel of the Las Vegas Raiders and a Forbes Four-Star resort, celebrated the official groundbreaking of the highly-anticipated expansion of the resort yesterday, December 11, 2023. The groundbreaking signals the beginning of construction on a second resort tower marking the next development phase for the PENN Entertainment property that opened in March 2009.
With an estimated budget of $206 million, the expansion project will add 384 rooms and 15,000 square feet of convention space, doubling the resort’s footprint and size and bringing its total to 774 rooms and suites. Along with additional rooms and meeting space, the expanded resort also plans to offer updated amenities, new restaurant concepts, and local partnerships that will be announced at a later date.
The press conference was kicked off by the Town Crier of the Henderson Silver Knights, followed by speeches from Vice President & General Manager of M Resort Hussain Mahrous, SVP of Regional Operations for PENN Entertainment Aaron Rosenthal, President & CEO of the Henderson Chamber of Commerce Scott Muelrath, Mayor of Henderson Michelle Romero, and Clark County Commissioner Michael Naft, who presented M Resort with a proclamation commemorating December 11 in Clark County as “M Resort Day.”
“My goal has always been to grow the property so that an expansion of the hotel made sense. Starting off with new restaurant concepts, entering our 10-year relationship with the Las Vegas Raiders, followed by partnering with Foley Entertainment and the Henderson Silver Knights, the Vegas Knighthawks indoor football team, and the NBA G League, and developing our all-star concert series welcoming artists such as Nelly, Flo Rida, Martina McBride, Bush, and others. All of that has been successful in creating the demand to expand,” said Hussain Mahrous, Vice President, and General Manager of M Resort.
The new tower has been designed by Marnell Architecture and will be constructed by the PENTA Building Group. The construction of the expansion is estimated to take 18 months, with an anticipated opening in summer 2025.
