Part 7...of 7! On July 15, 2015, 81 JE Irausquin Blvd. became a Hilton Hotel, and it still the Hilton today. As we will see (eventually), Hilton owned a hotel in Aruba long before, but had not been in Aruba for some time. They renovated the hotel and casino (as for the casino, I have been told the renovations are not that significant). The casino continues to be The Casino, but no longer The Casino at the Radisson.
Here are some borrowed images:
Doug Balduini, thank you for one of your photos, maybe more, and anyone else I pilfered from (usually asking first).
And that is the history of the first resort in Aruba. On to resort number two tomorrow.
