Harrah's Casino San Diego Location

On November 1, 2012, construction began on a $160-million expansion that included a new 403-room hotel tower and a 23,000 square foot convention center, which can be converted for meetings, concerts, etc. The project also consisted of many other expansions, including a renovation of the pool area featuring a lazy river and swim-up bar, a food court comprising Earl of Sandwich and the reopening of Pink's (now Smash Burger), a Starbucks location, Corked (featuring regional premium craft beers), Spiked, and Rita's (an indoor/outdoor Mexican restaurant). The lazy river, swim up bar and pool restaurant was completed during the summer of 2013, while the convention center and the bar Corked were completed by December. Starbucks opened in early 2014. The new hotel tower was partially opened in March and fully open by April 2014, bringing the resort's total room count to 1,065, making it the largest Indian casino resort by room count in the state of California. Spiked and the food court was also opened in April. The entire project was officially completed April 18, 2014.^[5] Upon its grand reopening, the resort was renamed Harrah's Resort Southern California.^[6] In 2015, after the expansion, the south tower was renovated to make it more modern and mimics the newer north tower.
