The casino underwent an expansion that was completed in the summer of 2008, expanding the number of table games to 60 and slot machines to over 3,000. The connected hotel stands eighteen stories high (numbered as nineteen due to the common exclusion of the thirteenth floor), and is the tallest habitable structure in the city west of Interstate 94 (with the roof of American Family Field nearby standing 70 feet higher).
In May 2017, Potawatomi Hotel & Casino announced that it wants to expand the hotel with the construction of a second tower.[2] The second tower is expected to cost around $80 million and will house 119 rooms and suites, bringing the hotel's total number to 500. The 180,000-square-foot addition will also feature a spa and additional meeting space. It opened for business in the spring of 2019.
The Potawatomi Casino has one of the largest gaming floors in all of Wisconsin. There are more than 3,000 machines for gaming as well as 100 poker and table games.[3]
The 24/7 poker room includes a mix of Limit and No-Limit Texas Hold ’Em, Seven Card Stud, and Pot Limit Omaha.
