The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas is investing more than $100 million to upgrade its rooms, joining a growing list of Strip casinos refreshing properties as tourism flourishes in the nation’s entertainment capital.
The two-tower, high-rise casino will gut 2,895 rooms in its first major renovation since opening nearly seven years ago, said Patrick Nichols, senior vice president of strategy and business development.
The Cosmopolitan launched the upgrade of the Boulevard Tower in June and aims to complete it before the end of the year. It will start on the Chelsea Tower in January and finish it later in 2018, said Nichols.
“We are stripping the rooms down to concrete floors and drywall,” said Nichols. “We will have a fully renovated room product in December 2018.”
In addition to new furniture and fixtures, The Cosmopolitan will add 65-inch TVs as well as iPads to every room.
