Lincoln, RI – Construction is on schedule for the new hotel at Twin River Casino in Lincoln. The 136-room hotel, designed by JCJ Architecture, broke ground in early May of this year. It is designed to be connected to the existing Twin River Casino on the site. The four-story building will provide guests with high-quality, attractive accommodations and amenities that will include a pool, fitness center, spa, valet parking, board rooms, outdoor patio, and function space.

Excell Constrution Corp. of East Greenwich is the general contractor for the project, and A/Z Corporation is the construction administrator. The project is expected to create 70 construction jobs and 30 full-time jobs.
Twin River Casino has emerged as Rhode Island’s largest gaming venue and tourist attraction. Twin River Management Group (TRMG) has transformed this facility into a highly competitive gaming and entertainment destination, and the addition of an upscale hotel is the next step in solidifying this position by creating a full destination experience.
TRMG has worked closely with the state of Rhode Island to overcome the challenges facing the potential addition of a hotel, and new legislation signed in 2015 has finally paved the way for this critical addition to become a reality.
With entertainment and dining options located in the interconnected casino, this selected-service facility will focus primarily on offering its guests high-quality, attractive, and modern accommodations.
The $25 million project is scheduled to be completed in the spring of 2018.
