Borgata Opens $400M Adjacent Water Club Tower

ATLANTIC CITY-The 800-room expansion brings Boyd and MGM Mirage's total Borgata investment to $1.7 billion.

By Eric Peterson | Updated on June 27, 2008

ATLANTIC CITY-It overcame a construction fire in September that delayed its opening by about six months , but the $400-million expansion of the Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa finally opened this weekend. The Water Club, as it is called, will effectively function as a separate hotel, with a separate reception area, although it is immediately adjacent to the original Borgata.

Centerpiece of the expansion, construction for which began in 2006, is its 43-story tower with 800 guest rooms and suites. Also part of the package, which co-owners Boyd Gaming and MGM Mirage are labeling a “boutique-lifestyle hotel,” are the two-story Immersion space on the 32nd floor, 18,000 sf of meeting space, three residence suites, five pools and a half-dozen retail shops.

One thing the Water Club doesn’t have is a casino, but that activity is a few steps away at the Borgata. The latter’s restaurants and other attractions are similarly close by.
