Construction is set to begin on a huge Caesars Palace renovation of their main entrance, lobby and gaming areas originally build in 1966. So, I guess you could say this has been a long time coming.

The multi-million dollar makeover will create an extravagant new entryway for the resort casino, as well as redesigning the gaming areas and adding a new bar. Work begins this month and will most likely be finished just in time for the New Year’s Eve festivities.

Two brand new gaming pits will flank the new main entrance, which will be completely redesigned to make arriving at Caesars palace a true experience fit for a king.

Additional improvements that guests can look forward to will be the addition of check-in/check-out kiosks at all entrances, a new ride share pick-up and drop-off point, valet service at the ground floor of the Caesars Palace self-parking garage, and a special valet for Caesars Rewards Diamond and Seven Star members off of Las Vegas Boulevard.

A spokesperson for the company said that the Caesars Palace renovation is “…no small task”, but added that they are excited to create a “…stunning new visual welcome for our guests.” You can read more at Yogo Net.
