Caesars Atlantic City is getting a facelift — a $200 million one.

On June 7, Caesars Entertainment announced its planned enhancements for the property, including upgrades to the valet, hotel lobby and casino floor, as well as a new outdoor pool “experience.”

The work, announced in April 2021, is part of a $400 million investment the company is making by 2023 at its casino properties in the area — Caesars, Harrah’s Resort and Tropicana Atlantic City.

Other upgrades to Caesars include the Nobu Atlantic City restaurant; Gordon Ramsay Hell’s Kitchen, the first of its kind on the East Coast; and more than 750 renovated rooms and suites in Caesars’ Centurion and Ocean towers.

“This major investment demonstrates our ongoing commitment to elevating guests’ experiences at our resorts as well as advancing the Atlantic City tourism economy,” John Koster, regional president for Caesars Entertainment’s Eastern Division, said in a statement.

The announcement comes as Atlantic City officials and casino owners prepare for what they hope will be a big tourism season.

Joe Lodise, senior vice president and general manager for Caesars Atlantic City, added, “For 43 years, Caesars Atlantic City has been an iconic destination on the Atlantic City Boardwalk and critical to the market’s success over the years.

“The resort transformation at Caesars Atlantic City will further the property’s evolution as one of the country’s leading travel destinations here on the East Coast – bringing the best of Las Vegas right here to the center of the action in Atlantic City,” Lodise continued.

Caesars said the redesigned first-floor lobby will also feature a new Starbucks with mobile ordering. In time for summer, the resort will unveil a renovated pool experience with beach and ocean views from the rooftop of Qua Baths & Spa. The pool will feature two levels of seating with lounge chairs, daybeds, cabanas and a bar.

The details:

• Scheduled to open this summer, Gordon Ramsay Hell’s Kitchen will offer Chef Ramsay’s signature classics like beef wellington, the Hell’s Kitchen Burger, lobster risotto as well as artisan cocktails.
• Nobu Atlantic City, debuting later this year, will be the first Nobu restaurant in the greater Philadelphia region. Overlooking the beach and boardwalk with floor-to-ceiling windows, Nobu will feature a full sushi bar, an extensive array of whiskey and signature-brand sake and wine.
• Nobu Hotel Atlantic City, following the restaurant’s debut, will open on the top three floors of Caesars Centurion Tower and will feature redesigned rooms and suites with Japanese-inspired decor mixed with sleek, modern touches.
• Newly renovated rooms and suites in the Centurion and Ocean Towers, designed by Interior Image Group, will range between 450 square feet to 700 square feet per room. The designs feature a modern Roman aesthetic, drawing inspiration from the local Atlantic City scenery.
