KINDER, LA – Chairman Jonathan Cernek of the Coushatta Tribe of Louisiana, members of the Tribal Council, and Todd Stewart, Coushatta Casino Resort General Manager were joined by principals from TBE Architects, Yates Construction and the Wenaha Group to participate in a groundbreaking ceremony for Coushatta Casino Resort’s new hotel. The ceremony was conducted at the Seven Clans statue, located in the Sculpture Garden in front of Seven Clans Hotel. During the festivities, Coushatta tribal dancers and drummers performed a short program, followed by cake-cutting, and then interviews and photo ops for present media.
The groundbreaking officially marked the beginning of construction on the resort’s newest series of upgrades and expansions, which begins with building a new eight-story 204-room luxury hotel with 100 suites. It will be connected to the casino, steps away from the casino floor. The expansion will increase capacity at Coushatta Casino Resort to over 1,000 rooms and will create additional employment opportunities for the region.
“As construction commences, we are excited about all the new venues and upgrades that we will be able to offer our guests, starting with this new hotel,” said Chairman Cernek. “Our goal is to offer our players an elevated gaming experience, and that includes top-quality lodgings and high-end dining options. The Coushatta Tribe is leading the way in building an unsurpassed resort destination, both in the local market and in the entire region.”
