Rivers Casino Pittsburgh is set to break ground on a new $60 million hotel later this summer. The Landing Hotel Pittsburgh will be a seven story, four-star property with 219 guest rooms. The hotel will attach to the existing casino on the east facade, facing the Carnegie Science Center. Rivers Casino Pittsburgh received approval for a hotel from the Pittsburgh Planning Commission in 2017. The development was postponed following the approval of gaming legislation that added category 4 “mini-casinos.”
“The time is right,” said Greg Carlin, CEO of Rush Street Gaming and Rivers Casino Pittsburgh. “Statewide gaming expansion changed our schedule, but never our intentions. Rush Street always envisioned a hotel for Rivers to create a full-service destination on the North Shore. We see it as a natural evolution.”
