L'Auberge Casino to open Saturday
BATON ROUGE, LA (WAFB) - L'Auberge Casino plans to open its doors to the public at 2 p.m. Saturday, the head of the Louisiana Gaming Control board says.
Dale Hall, Chairman of the Louisiana Gaming Control Board, says Louisiana State Police were conducting a final inspection of the casino Friday afternoon. Hall says he does not anticipate any problems with the inspection, which is the final step in the casino getting final approval to open.
Hurricane Isaac delayed the original grand opening of the casino which was scheduled for Wednesday, August 29th.
The $368 million dollar casino and hotel features a 74,000-square foot casino with nearly 1,500 slot machines and 50 table games, including a poker room.
The 12-story hotel has 205 guest rooms.
The casino is located along River Road south of LSU, near the Iberville Parish line.
