MotorCity Casino Hotel is a casino hotel located in Detroit, Michigan, United States. It was opened on December 14, 1999.[1]

The $825 million MotorCity complex contains a historic building that housed the Wagner Baking Company, makers of the brand Wonder Bread.[2] The complex houses a 100,000 square-foot casino with approximately 2,500 slot machines, and 59 table games; a 13,000-square-foot spa; 67,000 square feet of meeting and convention space; Sound Board, a live music theater with a capacity of 2,400 people; and a luxury hotel with 400 guest rooms and suites.[citation needed]

Originally opened by Mandalay Resort Group, their 53.5% stake was later purchased on April 12, 2005, for $525 million by Marian Ilitch, who already owned 25% of MotorCity.[3]
