Chamonix Casino Hotel, a new resort in Cripple Creek owned by Bronco Billy’s parent company Full House Resorts, opened its casino and 300-room hotel Tuesday.
The hotel project, which Full House Resorts CEO Daniel Lee said cost approximately $300 million to build, will continue to be worked on during the next several months due to construction delays Lee attributed to ongoing labor shortages and a limited pool of skilled craftsmen.
“We had to make the decision to open in stages,” Lee said.
While the hotel’s lodging, casino gaming and potions of parking opened Tuesday, Chamonix’s spa/pool amenities, jewelry store and restaurants will not be available to guests initially.
