RWNYC opened its 13,657-square-foot International Room with 48 high-limit table games and three private salons. The addition offers dedicated hosts and 24-hour food service on its 15th anniversary. It forms part of first-floor growth and the larger $5.5 billion phase two project.
SCCG Take — The room upgrades premium capacity after the April full casino launch. Operators will track how this offering performs within the approved downstate licence framework.
Resorts World New York City opened its International Room on Thursday. The new space measures 13,657 square feet and contains 48 table games plus three private gaming salons. The room focuses on high-limit baccarat, roulette and blackjack.
The operator calls it an exclusive high-limit destination. It delivers an intimate premium gaming experience with privacy and white glove service. Food and beverage options operate 24 hours a day on the gaming floor.
Robert DeSalvio, president of development for Genting Americas East, stated the company is extremely proud of the speed with which it built and opened this space.
Dedicated hosts support the white glove service model. The design matches luxury casino standards for privacy and personalised hospitality. The addition supplies the elevated experience that high-limit players seek.
The opening coincides with the property’s 15th anniversary. RWNYC first launched in 2011 as an electronic gaming venue. It converted to a full-service casino on April 28 after Genting New York LLC obtained a downstate gaming licence from the New York State Gaming Commission.
The International Room sits inside a larger first-floor expansion. That project adds 57 table games and 147 slot machines. The final counts will reach nearly 300 live table games and over 4,000 slot machines.
In July the promoters broke ground on phase two. The $5.5 billion integrated resort plan includes a 7,000-seat arena, 2,000 hotel rooms and 11 acres of green space. Genting New York operates as a subsidiary of Genting Malaysia Bhd. The launch follows the competitive tender that produced three successful bidders for downstate licences, as reported by GGRAsia.
