It is owned and operated by Caesars Entertainment Corporation. As of 2012, the casino is 32,890 sq ft ( 3,056 m ) with 830 slot machines, 55 table games, and a race and sports book. It originally opened in 1959 as the 180 - room Flamingo Capri motel, located adjacent to the Flamingo hotel and casino. Ralph Engelstad purchased the property in 1971, and added a casino the following year. In 1977, the hotel had 650 rooms, after the completion of its Imperial Palace Tower. The resort was later reopened as the Asian - themed Imperial Palace in 1979. Several additional hotel towers were added during the 1980s, bringing the resort 's room count to an ultimate total of 2,637, after the completion of a fifth and final hotel tower in 1987. At the time of Engelstad 's death in 2002, the resort had 2,600 employees and was the second - largest privately owned hotel in the world. In 2012, the resort was renamed as The Quad. The resort was renamed again as The Linq in 2014, after a $223 million renovation.

Goldberg and Bill Capri. The motel was built directly north of the Flamingo Hotel and Casino, where Capri was an employee. The motel began construction in May 1959, with a planned completion date of August 15, 1959. Douglas Honnold and John Rex, both of Beverly Hills, California, were the architects. Maurice N. Aroff of Beverly Hills was the general contractor. The Flamingo Capri opened in 1959. The original Flamingo agreed to provide hotel services to guests at the Capri. Ralph Engelstad purchased the motel in 1971, and added a casino in 1972. Prior to the addition of a casino, the motel had 250 employees. In 1973, four motel buildings from the Flamingo Capri were relocated and converted to become part of Engelstad 's other property, the Kona Kai motel. Engelstad 's construction company added a three - story wing at the east end of the motel, as well as a northern addition, both of which opened in 1974 along with the Shangri - la pool. By 1976, the motel was being operated as part of the Best Western hotel chain, while retaining the Flamingo Capri name. The new Imperial Palace Tower, which raised the number of rooms from 300 to 650, was completed in July 1977. Imperial Palace ( 1979 -- 2012 ) Imperial Palace in 2006 The property re-opened as the Asian - themed Imperial Palace Hotel and Casino on November 1, 1979, with the number of employees increasing to 1,000. Merlin J. Barth was the architect of the resort, which was themed after an Asian palace. Engelstad chose the Oriental theme, and Barth chose blue tile imported from Japan for the roof of the resort, having been influenced by Japanese temples. The interior heavily featured the Oriental theme as well, and included carved dragons and giant wind chime chandeliers. At the time of opening, the resort included Court of a Thousand Treasures, a four - story shopping arcade with 60 stores, overlooking the east end of the 30,000 sq ft ( 2,800 m ) casino. The Imperial Theatre showroom with 850 seats was opened in June 1980. In addition to live shows, the showroom was also expanded to be used for filming of sports and entertainment television specials. A second hotel tower with 850 rooms was added in early 1981. The Auto Collections opened on December 1, 1981, on the fifth floor of a new parking garage which was added that year. A 650 - room hotel tower opened in August 1982, bringing the total room count to more than 1,500. By 1982, the shopping arcade included the free Imperial Palace School of Gaming, for gamblers who did not know how to play. The school operated as a mini casino overlooking the main 40,000 sq ft ( 3,700 m ) casino. During the 1980s, the resort served as the starting and finishing location of the annual Imperial Palace Antique Auto Run. In 1984, a couple from Missouri were assaulted in their guest room by a man dressed as a hotel employee. They were beaten, bound and gagged, and the wife was raped. The assailant was never caught. The couple sued the Imperial Palace, claiming that the hotel did not provide adequate security. The lawsuit lasted until at least 1989, with allegations that hotel employees destroyed evidence relating to their security practices. The case was ultimately settled on undisclosed terms. The lawsuit would lead indirectly to more trouble for the casino. In 1988, several employees, angry about being placed on leave as punishment for talking to the plaintiff attorney, began speaking to the Gaming Control Board and local media about two Nazi - themed parties Engelstad had held at the Imperial Palace. The parties were held in Engelstad 's so - called `` war room '', which featured a large collection of World War II Nazi memorabilia, including a portrait of Engelstad in the likeness of Hitler. A national controversy ensued. Engelstad claimed the collection was purely of historical interest, and not meant to glorify the Nazis. The Gaming Control Board recommended that Engelstad lose his gaming license and be fined $200,000 for reflecting poorly on the reputation of the Nevada gaming industry. An agreement was ultimately reached whereby Engelstad kept his license, but paid $1.5 million in penalties. In 1985, the parking garage was expanded to include more than 1,000 additional parking spaces, becoming one of the largest parking facilities in Las Vegas. In December 1985, the foundation was laid for a 560 - room hotel addition, which was completed in 1986 as the resort 's fourth tower, bringing the room count total to 2,100. The Imperial Palace became the seventh largest hotel in the world, and had more than 2,200 employees. Also in 1986, the casino was expanded by 15,000 square feet ( 1,400 m ), and convention facilities were increased from 25,000 sq ft ( 2,300 m ) to 30,000 sq ft ( 2,800 m ). A fifth and final hotel tower, standing 19 stories with 547 rooms, was completed in July 1987, bringing the total to 2,637 rooms. The tower was the former location of the resort 's pool. In 1987, the Governor 's Committee for the Handicapped named the Imperial Palace as `` Employer of the Year '' for its extensiving hiring of handicapped people. A three - phase expansion began in August 1987 and concluded in July 1989. The three - phase expansion included the addition of a new Olympic - size swimming pool, a heated spa, and a poolside bar. The final phase of the expansion -- including a race & sportsbook, and fitness center -- extended the resort to the sidewalk along Las Vegas Boulevard. The sportsbook was completed in September 1989, and a drive - through option was created in 1991, making the Imperial Palace the first casino in Las Vegas to offer such a feature. The drive - through sportsbook, located on Koval Lane behind the hotel, became popular among customers. In 1991, the President 's Committee on Employment of People with Disabilities named the Imperial Palace `` National Employer of the Year '' for its hiring of disabled people. In 1993, an independent 24 - hour medical facility serving guests and employees was opened. In the 1990s, the Imperial Palace 's gaming school operated on the main casino floor. In 1997, Engelstad opened a second Imperial Palace in Biloxi, Mississippi. As of 1997, the Imperial Palace was the 10th largest hotel in the world and the world 's largest privately owned hotel. When Engelstad died in 2002, the casino ownership transferred to the Ralph Engelstad and Betty Engelstad Trust. The casino operated as its own limited partnership, Imperial Palace LLC, under the Trust 's oversight. At the time of Engelstad 's death, the resort was the second - largest privately owned hotel in the world, with nearly 2,700 rooms and 2,600 employees. On August 22, 2005, Harrah 's Entertainment announced plans to purchase the property. The acquisition was completed on December 23, 2005. During a conference call with investors on November 20, 2005, the Chairman for Harrah 's, Gary Loveman, noted that both the Imperial Palace and neighboring O'Sheas Casino `` are going to require very substantial modifications or complete tear - downs and rebuilds '' in order to make room for an expansion of the nearby Harrah 's and / or Flamingo hotel - casinos. However, since then, Harrah 's has invested millions of dollars into refurbishing both the hotel rooms and the casino itself. In July 2009, Harrah 's announced new plans for the area around the Imperial Palace, O'Sheas, and Flamingo casinos, confirming that the Imperial Palace will not be demolished at this time. Harrah 's planned to add approximately 20 restaurants and bars between O'Sheas and the Flamingo. In August 2011, Caesars Entertainment Corporation announced it will be building a massive entertainment complex adjacent to the Imperial Palace and on the site of O'Sheas casino, called Project LINQ. The Imperial Palace name will be retired and the property renamed. The Quad ( 2012 -- 2014 ) The Quad in 2013 On September 17, 2012, Caesars Entertainment Corporation announced that Imperial Palace would be renamed The Quad Resort and Casino. The official conversion was completed on December 21, 2012. The Linq ( 2014 -- present ) In July 2014, Caesars announced that the Quad would be again renamed The Linq Hotel & Casino in order to join the LINQ Promenade, an adjacent shopping and entertainment center that opened in January 2014, following a $223 million renovation of the property. The hotel and casino were officially renamed on October 30, 2014. Film history In Austin Powers : International Man of Mystery, the character Alotta Fagina stays at the Imperial Palace. The Imperial Palace is in Grand Theft Auto : San Andreas under the name `` The Four Dragons Casino ''. It is owned by the Triads, allies of the protagonist, Carl `` CJ '' Johnson. The Imperial Palace is where the Las Vegas scenes of John Cassavetes ' Love Streams was filmed. In Midnight Run the exterior was used as the unnamed casino for Dennis Farina 's character Jimmy Serrano 's base of operations. Attractions The Linq Promenade The Linq Promenade with the High Roller in the background in 2014 The Linq Promenade is an open - air retail, dining, and entertainment district located between The Linq and Flamingo resorts that began a soft open in January 2014. In November 2017, Caesars Entertainment Corporation announced the intended addition of Fly LINQ, expected to be the first and only zipline on the Las Vegas Strip. Construction of the $20 million zipline was underway in April 2018. Once complete, the Fly LINQ attraction will feature 10 side - by - side zip lines. Fly Linq is scheduled to open at The Linq Promenade on November 9, 2018.

O'Sheas casino Main article : O'Sheas Casino O'Sheas Casino reopened in December 2013, attached to the Linq 's casino floor and to its shopping promenade. The Auto Collections 1930 Cord, part of the Auto Collections in 2005 The Auto Collections The Auto Collections was a collection of classic vehicles on display at the resort until 2017. The museum opened on December 1, 1981, known then as the Antique and Classic Auto Collections. The museum initially consisted of Engelstad 's own private car collection, worth over $10 million at the time of the opening. The exhibition was located in an air - conditioned facility on the 5th floor of the resort 's parking garage. Don Williams and Richie Clyne took over operations of the museum in 1999. Under their management, the museum began offering its vehicles for sale and trade on February 1, 2000. Approximately 200 vehicles were kept in storage nearby. Vehicles would be taken out of storage to take the place of those that had been sold in the exhibit. Approximately half of the vehicles in the collection were owned by Williams and Clyne. The Auto Collections closed on December 30, 2017. Rob Williams, the general manager and a part - owner, said about the closure, `` It 's time ; it 's basically that simple. We 've had a great run here... It 's just time to close it down and move on to our next endeavors. '' Although visitor attendance had slightly declined, it was not a reason for the closure. The exhibit was located in 125,000 sq ft ( 11,600 m ) of space. The collection was the world 's largest classic car showroom, with more than $25 million worth of inventory on display and for sale. More than 250 antique, classic, muscle and historically significant cars were on display and nearly all were for sale. Prices varied dramatically depending on many factors and ranged from as low as $30,000 to several million dollars for the especially rare pieces in the collection. Some of the cars presented included those once driven by famous celebrities or utilized by state officials, such as the 1955 Lincoln Capri Convertible owned by Marilyn Monroe, the 1939 Chrysler Royal Sedan formerly belonging to Johnny Carson or the 1962 Lincoln Continental Towne Limousine serving President John F. Kennedy. Shows Mat Franco - Magic Reinvented Nightly Mat Franco - Magic Reinvented Nightly stars Mat Franco, the season nine winner on NBC 's America 's Got Talent.
