The Parisian Macao (Chinese: 澳門巴黎人) is a casino resort on the Cotai Strip in Cotai, Macau, China owned by Las Vegas Sands, which features a half-scale Eiffel Tower as one of its landmarks.[1] It was originally expected to be operational in late 2015,[2] with that later changed to August 2016.[3] The hotel officially opened on 13 September 2016.[4]

History

[edit]

Development and construction

[edit]
The Parisian under construction in August 2015.

The Parisian Macao was estimated to cost around $2.5 billion and is being funded by Las Vegas Sands with $1.5 billion in bank loans and $900 million to $1 billion in cash. The company will also have to pay a penalty of 900,000 patacas ($112,700) for the delay in developing the plot.[5]

Construction began in February 2013.[6]

Opening (2016)

[edit]

Originally expected to be operational in late 2015,[2] the completion of The Parisian Macao was delayed and finally opened in September 2016. However, its launch quarter results were below expectations.[7]

Downsizing (2019)

In 2019, 600 rooms in The Parisian Macao were renovated to become 300 new suites to meet rising demands.[8] This brings the total room count from the original 3,000 rooms and suites to approximately 2,700.

The property has approximately 2,700 hotel rooms, 170 shops and 56,000 square feet of meeting space. In addition, the resort features a 1,200-seat theatre. For the first month of the hotel's opening, the theatre hosted Thriller Live, and hopes to attract more Broadway and West End performances.[9][10][11]

The interior has a large fountain and atrium giving a feel of modern France. There are 150 gaming tables allotted to the property, of which 100 were allotted at launch and the next 50 will be allotted over the next years.[12]
