The famed Stratosphere Casino Hotel and Tower and the Aquarius Casino Resort will join forces with Best Western Hotels and Resorts.
The properties, both owned by American Casino and Entertainment Properties (ACEP), will be a part of the BW Premier Collection—Best Western’s rapidly expanding soft brand that began in 2015.
"It's a very exciting day for Best Western Hotels & Resorts as we will now offer two new and thrilling travel destinations for our loyal guests," said Ron Pohl, senior vice president and COO of Best Western Hotels & Resorts.
"Whether you're looking for exhilarating sights and gaming options, world-class dining and entertainment at your fingertips or just an unforgettable guest stay, these hotels provide it all,” added Pohl.
ACEP was in the market for a partner and noted that Best Western fit the bill.
"We were searching for the right soft brand to align with and it was immediately clear that Best Western Hotels & Resorts shares our commitment to delivering a unique and exceptional travel experience at a great value," said Frank Riolo, CEO, ACEP.
"Not only that, we will have access to Best Western's second-to-none brand support, online platforms and loyalty program, while our properties maintain their iconic identities in both Las Vegas and Laughlin,” he noted.
