“This will greatly benefit, not only the Osage Nation but also the entertainment industry in Bartlesville and the surrounding area,' Principal Chief of the Osage Nation Geoffrey Standing Bear said. 'We actually started construction, you know, a little over two years ago and because of COVID and different things, it took a lot longer than normal.' 'It's been a long time coming,' John Shaw, the General Manager of Osage Casino & Hotel – Bartlesville, was quoted as saying in a KTUL report. A new restaurant and bar named 'Scissortail' will be hosted within the casino. The hotel encompasses a fitness center, and an outdoor area with a pool and hot tub is available for guest use. The 153,151-square-foot venue boasts 521 slot machines, a 6,000-square-foot meeting space, and 102 hotel rooms.
Osage Casino & Hotel Bartlesville, the second Osage property opening in 2023, was initially announced in 2021, with construction commencing shortly thereafter. Osage Casinos officially opened the doors to its new casino in Bartlesville following a ribbon-cutting ceremony held on Thursday morning.
