“When creating this brand-new hotel concept, we knew that Atari would be the perfect way to give guests the ‘nostalgic and retro meets modern’ look and feel we were going for. Let’s face it, how cool will it be to stay inside an Atari?!” stated GSD Group’s Napoleon Smith III.
The first hotel will open up in Phoenix, Arizona. The next hotels will open up in major cities such as: Las Vegas, Denver, Chicago, Austin, Seattle, San Francisco and San Jose.
