Boyd Gaming Corporation announced its $45m expansion plans for Delta Downs Racetrack Casino Hotel in Vinton, Louisiana.

Set for completion in 2016, Boyd Gaming plans to redesign all 200 existing rooms at the property to provide a new look and feel to the hotel. In addition the company will be adding a new hotel tower, featuring 167 additional guest rooms and suites.

Aside from the hotel, Delta Downs Racetrack Casino Hotel will redesign its food and beverage facilities, as well as expand its special events center to better accommodate meeting and banquet functions.

“Delta Downs is extremely popular with our guests, and demand exceeds what we can accommodate with our current facility,” said Boyd Gaming President and CEO Keith Smith. “With 370 rooms and suites, Delta Downs will be better positioned to meet this growing demand, giving us the opportunity to extend our unique brand of hospitality to more visitors than ever before.”
