More than a year since taking over the Nugget Casino Resort, Century Casinos’ effort to modernize and renovate much of Sparks’ largest gaming property may be paying off.
Officials from the Colorado-based company said improvements made on the casino floor and an increased effort to attract Northern Nevada customers helped increase third-quarter revenue by 40 percent from the previous three months.
Century, which has 11 casinos in the U.S. but doesn’t break out financial results by property, said its overall revenue was $155.7 million, a decrease of 3 percent.
New Nugget general manager Eric Rose, who has been on the job since August, said in an interview last month that Century upgraded the resort’s restaurants and casino floor, adding 120 slot machines and establishing a high-limit room.
