Isle of Capri to Open Hotel Tower
MISSISSIPPI – As reported by the Biloxi Sun Herald: “Isle of Capri Casinos Inc., an emerging global gambling company, will celebrate a multimillion-dollar investment at its home base next week with a grand opening ceremony for its new hotel tower in Biloxi.
“Although the Isle already operates casinos in Grand Bahama and England and is competing for a license in Singapore, Biloxi is also key to its future growth. The Biloxi hotel is now the corporation’s largest. The Isle’s next move is to replace its existing gambling barge with a casino double in size.

“The company has invested almost $300 million in Biloxi since it opened the South’s first legal casino on Point Cadet in 1992…”
