Another hotel has tentatively settled with the Culinary Union.

More than 1,000 Culinary Union employees at Westgate agreed to a tentative five-year Saturday, according to a union news release.

“Negotiations for the BEST CONTRACT EVER continue with 18 remaining Strip Independent & Downtown Las Vegas casino properties for 6,000, workers ahead of the February 2, 2024 at 5:00 a.m. strike deadline,” said a posting from the union on X.

A ratification vote is expected to be scheduled soon, the union said in an email.

The union earlier settled with the major Strip resorts before negotiating with the remaining nearly two dozen independent and smaller casinos.
