Potawatomi’s hotel exceeds expectations in first year

A casino without a hotel is like a brat without a bun, said Ryan Amundson, external communications manager for Potawatomi Hotel & Casino.

After nearly 25 years of existence as a bingo hall and casino, Potawatomi finally built a hotel, and it is now gearing up to celebrate the hotel's one-year anniversary on Aug. 18.

The hotel has been well received, said hotel director Hassan Abdel-Moneim.

“This was the largest casino in probably the country that didn't have a hotel,” he said. “Our customers just flooded us…It gives customers with an hour, hour-and-a-half drive away the option to stay so they don't feel rushed.”

The two Milwaukees

“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way…”
– Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities
