Century Casinos has announced that Eric Rose, a long-term regional Vice President and General Manager of the company, will take over the top leadership role at the Nugget Casino Resort. Eric Rose has been appointed Senior Vice President and General Manager of the Nugget, succeeding the previous GM, who is no longer with Century.

Rose is a 32-year veteran in gaming and hospitality and previously served as Vice President of Operations in Colorado and General Manager of Century Casino Cripple Creek, Colorado, the company noted.

Rose's career began in Stateline, Nevada, and has included leadership roles in food and beverage, marketing, and as General Manager in both Nevada and Colorado. Rose also played a pivotal role in the company's acquisition of three properties from Caesars Entertainment in 2019. 

According to Century Casinos, throughout his career, Rose has proven himself as a leader dedicated to evolving outstanding hospitality paired with exceptional financial discipline in highly competitive casino markets. “He has an established track record, unparalleled consistency, and deep knowledge of the hospitality and gaming industries,” the company said in a press release.

"We encountered a challenging first half of the year at the Nugget with lower-than-expected revenue. The Nugget has undergone right-sizing and cost-cutting initiatives," Erwin Haitzmann and Peter Hoetzinger, Co-Chief Executive Officers of Century Casinos, remarked. 

"The property has also been further upgraded with investments in more than 120 new slot machines, a high-limit room, refreshes of two restaurants, a repaint of the exterior, exterior and interior signage, and display packages. With the appointment of Eric Rose to the top leadership role, we are finalizing the transition, setting the Nugget up for future success," they concluded.

Nugget Casino Resort is located in Sparks, Nevada, on Interstate 80, with easy access from the Reno-Tahoe International Airport. The resort includes a large gaming floor, two hotel towers, 114,500 square feet of convention space, an 8,555-seat outdoor amphitheater, and a variety of casual and fine dining options.

In addition, the property features several on-site bars and lounges, a five-story 1,200 space parking garage, and additional 1,272 parking spaces. The property comprises 71,200 square feet of casino space, 929 slot machines, 25 table games, 1,382 hotel rooms, and five dining venues.
