Atlantis traces its roots in Reno to 1972, when a 142-room motel was purchased by David Farahi and his brother-in-law. The three sons of David graduated from universities in the Bay Area, working at the motel during their school vacations. By 1976, their father transferred ownership to them and their sister, initially known as the Golden Road Motel.
In 1983, the motel began operating as a Travelodge franchise. In April 1991, the property became Clarion Hotel Casino a growth path escalated for the company. In 1993, an IPO took the company public as Monarch Casino & Resort Inc. (NASDAQ:MCRI). The IPO helped finance the addition of another hotel tower, and a couple of years later, another expansion added significant additions to the property. The Monarch team was one of the few in the industry to show growth even while northern Nevada gaming was declining. In April 1996, the property became Atlantis Casino Resort and in 1999 a third high rise tower opened that added 388 rooms, over 300 slot machines, several new restaurants and 14,500 square feet of new meeting space.
Atlantis Casino Resort Spa stands as a premier gaming and hospitality destination in northern Nevada, a position solidified by a multi-million dollar expansion completed in 2009. This expansion introduces upgraded dining experiences, including Atlantis Steakhouse, Reno’s only Forbes Four-Star Restaurant. It also adds 52,000 square feet of versatile meeting space and the world-class Spa Atlantis, currently recognized as Reno's only Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star Spa. Continuous property improvements and a steadfast focus on performance maintain the AAA Four Diamond rating and Forbes Travel Guide recommendation that define Atlantis Casino Resort Spa as one of the most dynamic destinations in the region. The property consistently earns the #1 ranking for Reno resorts on Tripadvisor and was recently named the #1 Reno hotel by U.S. News & World Report.
Monarch Casino & Resort, Inc. entered the Colorado market in 2012 with the $76 million acquisition of the Riviera Black Hawk, a property that then featured 32,000 square feet of gaming space, 750 slot machines, 12 table games, and two dining venues, The Buffet and Chicago Dogs Eatery. Rebranded as Monarch Casino Black Hawk, the property underwent a $400 million transformation, with construction completed in 2021 and the grand opening celebrated in 2022. The expansion doubled the gaming space to 60,000 square feet and introduced 1,200 slot machines, 40 table games, a poker room, and a sports lounge.
