Genting Americas announced on Oct. 12 plans for a new hotel located at Resorts World Casino New York City (RWNYC). Hyatt Regency JFK at Resorts World New York, an eight-story, 400-room, four-star hotel, scheduled to open in Q1 2021, will feature residential-inspired guestrooms and premium suites with energizing design and insightful in-room technology. The hotel will also include new restaurants, state-of-the-art conference and meeting spaces, retail options, and additional gaming areas. RWNYC is the only casino in New York City, offering over 6,000 slots and electronic table games to millions of guests annually.
“Hyatt’s global brand recognition will give Resorts World an even greater opportunity to tap into the travel and tourism market worldwide and showcase our unparalleled hospitality, gaming, dining and entertainment offerings,” said Bob DeSalvio, President of Genting Americas East. “We are proud to work with such an iconic brand as we move NY Forward, and we are excited that guests will soon be able to enjoy an integrated casino resort experience right here in Queens.”

The $400 million hotel and amenities investment has long been part of Genting’s vision of bringing an integrated resort, popular in global destinations such as Las Vegas and Singapore, to New York City. The integrated resort will seamlessly feature a variety of non-gaming amenities to complement the most innovative gaming products and entertainment offerings, allowing guests of all interests and budgets an experience that fits their personal tastes.
This development will bring the total investment of RWNYC to over $1.1 billion since opening in October 2011, after Genting spent more than $700 million to enhance the existing Aqueduct grandstand to become a leading entertainment destination. The hotel addition is estimated to create more than 500 good-paying careers for New Yorkers and provide additional revenue for New York State’s Lottery Education Fund. RWNYC has already generated nearly $3 billion for New York’s public schools.
“This hotel creates job opportunities for hundreds of the borough’s residents and is an important step in improving the gaming experience in Queens,” said NYS Senator Joseph P. Addabbo Jr., who also serves as Chair of the NYS Senate Racing, Gaming and Wagering Committee. “Resorts World Casino New York City is doing its part to show tourists there is more to New York City than just Manhattan. I look forward to more people exploring the borough I’ve called home my entire life.”
“The Resorts World hospitality partnership with Hyatt will offer visitors a top-flight hotel with world-class amenities right here in Queens,” said Acting Queens Borough President Sharon Lee. “In proximity to JFK, it will be a boon for both Queens and regional tourism, jobs and the economy.”
“The addition of a hotel at Resorts World Casino New York City completes a wonderful transformation in southeast Queens,” said Thomas Grech, Executive Director of the Queens Chamber of Commerce. “Resorts World Casino NYC are excellent partners and now a major presence in Queens County and beyond. The jobs, resulting economic development and contributions to the local economy have created opportunities much larger than ever envisioned. We are grateful for their continued support and partnership.”
“The Queens community will certainly benefit from the new Hyatt hotel at Resorts World NYC. This international brand will only add to the prestige of our premier gaming and entertainment center. Jobs will be created that afford new opportunities for a diverse and growing workforce,” said Seth Bornstein, Executive Director of the Queens EDC.
Congressman Gregory Meeks said, “Resorts World Casino New York City’s partnership with Hyatt is a welcome addition to the 5th District, further adding to the thriving economic development in southeast Queens. Hyatt’s hospitality will help service the substantial tourism that comes through JFK, which serves as not just a hub to New York City, but the world. I congratulate Resorts World New York and Hyatt and look forward to seeing the jobs created in the community as a result of this partnership.”

A long-planned hotel at Resorts World Casino in South Ozone Park is about to begin construction, officials said this week. The 400-room, 10-story hotel represents a major expansion of the only casino in New York City. “This new play, stay, dine and shop development will create good-paying jobs and generate significant revenue for our surrounding community and New York State,” said Scott Molina, president of Resorts World Casino New York City. “We are grateful to our local partners for their steadfast support as we prepare for phase two of our facility.” The $400-million hotel is slated to be completed by the end of next year. The first two floors are already near completion and will be ready to open some time this summer, officials said. The completion of the hotel will effectively double the size of the casino by adding an additional 500,000 square feet of space to the complex. It will include four high-end restaurants, a fitness center, another gaming room and meeting rooms. The ability to put up guests overnight— especially high rollers — and to host conventions and conferences on the casino grounds puts Resorts World on an even footing with Atlantic City and other area gambling spots. Since the casino opened in 2011 right next to Aqueduct Race Track, it has been surprisingly successful, drawing more than 10 million customers a year. It has become is the highest-grossing slot-machine casino in the world, officials say. On average, more than $1.1 billion a month is wagered through the casino’s 5,000 video machines, according the state Gaming Commission. However, betting revenues at Resorts World have been slowly trending downward over the last few years. The casino’s handle has dropped from a high of $20 billion in 2015-16 to just under $14 billion in 2017-18, the last full year for which statistics are available, according to the Gaming Commission. Betting in the current fiscal year, which ends next month, are on a par with last year, indicating the decline may be leveling off. The new hotel will extend from the casino’s main building north, toward Rockaway Boulevard, in front of the existing, four-story parking garage. It was designed by the international architecture firm Perkins Eastman, which is responsible for components of such New York projects as Battery Park City and Metrotech, as well as smaller project in Queens, including a sustainable housing development in Arverne in the Rockaways. Once the hotel is complete, casino officials say more than 1,000 jobs will be created in the southern part of Queens. Construction is not expected to affect the operations of the casino. Officials said they will make an announcement about which restaurants and other facilities will be opened in the just-completed ground floors of the new hotel.
