Ameristar Casinos is ready to embark on a $4.2 million renovation project at its East Chicago property.

The company plans to refurbish the 15 story hotel structure by sprucing up the 280 guest rooms and 10 luxury suites from floor to ceiling.

“The newly renovated rooms will enhance the overall comfort of our guests and will add to our reputation as one of the premier hotel facilities in Northwest Indiana,” said Pete Savage, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Ameristar East Chicago.

Despite falling monthly revenues associated with the closure of the Cline Avenue Bridge the upgrade shows the casino remains committed to East Chicago and Northwest Indiana even during these tough economic times, said Ameristar Casinos Inc. CEO Gordon Kanofsky.

“This renovation was planned prior to the bridge closure as we are always investing capital dollars to maintain and improve the property,” he said.

Renovations will begin next month, with full construction beginning in September.
