The eight-storey addition will add 304 rooms and suites, taking Coushatta Casino Resort beyond 1,000 guest rooms as it expands its accommodation offer.
Coushatta Casino Resort is set to open a new eight-storey hotel tower in May at its property in Kinder, Louisiana, adding 204 guest rooms and 100 luxury suites. Directly connected to the existing resort, the tower will sit close to the gaming floor, dining, entertainment and other amenities. The expansion matters because it broadens the accommodation capacity of a destination built around gaming and leisure, while extending the scale of its hospitality offer.
Once complete, the addition will take Coushatta’s total inventory beyond 1,000 guest rooms. The resort describes itself as Louisiana’s largest casino resort, with a gaming floor offering nearly 2,000 slot and table games, alongside live poker, bingo and sports betting. Its wider offer includes three hotels, the Dream Pool and Lazy River, entertainment and a golf course.
The new tower is designed to place premium accommodation within the existing resort complex rather than as a separate destination. Coushatta says the rooms and suites will serve gaming guests, golf visitors and entertainment audiences, linking overnight stays more closely with the property’s established leisure infrastructure. Further details on grand-opening events and booking availability are due to be provided in the coming weeks.
The project also involves TBE Architects, Yates Construction and The Wenaha Group, which collaborated on the tower’s design and construction. Nate Tanner, general manager of Coushatta Casino Resort, characterised the investment as part of the property’s longer-term development and said it would support the ability to welcome more guests, create additional jobs and enhance the resort experience. Those claims remain the company’s stated expectations for the project.
Coushatta has operated since 1995 and positions the expansion within its broader role in the regional economy. The resort draws visitors from Texas, Louisiana and the Gulf South, according to the company, making additional rooms a way to support its existing gaming, dining and entertainment mix. The tower therefore represents a measured extension of an established destination, with its commercial impact likely to depend on how effectively the new inventory connects with demand across those activities.
