Trump Set to Open the 300 Room  Hotel 
in Gary, Indiana
 
GARY, Ind., Sept. 9, 1998 -  Officials of Trump Casino are hoping for a "full house" every day with the opening of the new Trump Hotel.

Scheduled to open its doors on Monday, September 28, with 96 of its luxurious 300 rooms ready for occupancy, the hotel is located at 21 Buffington Harbor Drive in the Buffington Harbor area of Gary, Ind. It is the only hotel in Indiana overlooking the scenic shores of Lake Michigan. The new hotel is adjacent to the Trump Casino.

Guests will enter an exquisite atrium lobby and can enjoy amenities such as an indoor heated swimming pool, a 24 hour restaurant and cocktail lounge, two large hot tubs and three lavishly appointed suites, as well as other comforts that characterize the mark of a fine hotel. Nine of the deluxe guest rooms also feature Jacuzzis.

Because of the hotel's location in northern Indiana and the number of tourists and business persons coming into the area, the hotel will also offer conference rooms suitable for small business meetings or social functions.

"Whether our guests come for a weekend of casino excitement, a wedding or an important business meeting, the hotel will provide them with a pleasurable experience," said Joe D'Amato, Chief Operating Officer.

Trump Casino opened in June, 1996. In addition to the Gary location, Trump owns and operates three properties in Atlantic City, N.J. The opening of the hotel will create 125 jobs in the northern Indiana area.
 

Trump Casino, located 20 minutes from downtown Chicago at Buffington Harbor in Northwest Indiana, is a mega-yacht with 37,000 square feet of gaming space. Trump has brought Atlantic City to the shores of Lake Michigan with this world class facility. Austrain Strauss crystal chandeliers, hand painted murals, and custom Italian mirrors add an air of luxury to this extraordinary casino experience. And, as you'd expect, excitement abounds with over 1,400 slot machines, over 70 gaming tables, and more than 2,100 gaming position. Plus, our Pavilion features great restaurants, choice shopping, and free parking.
