Trump International Opens

by Staff

The opening of Trump International brings some fresh air to the Las Vegas Strip, or so the operators are saying.

The $500 million hotel tower is smoke-free and has no casino.

“It will be a place of refuge for our residents and guests,” said Steve Shalit, vice president and managing director. “No clang, clang, clang sounds from slot machines anywhere in the building. And, it has a lot of Donald Trump in it.”

During the grand opening celebration, Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman commented on how nice the property was, adding, “I can’t wait to be comped here.”

The tower features 1,282 suites—880 studio units, 352 one-bedroom suites and 50 penthouse suites on the top floor. The tower is a hybrid condominium-hotel property, with 95 percent of the rooms being privately opened.

Plans for a second tower are on hold until the market improves.
