Scale of the Las Vegas Strip hotel room inventory

Industry and tourism reports document that the Las Vegas Strip's hotels together maintain an exceptionally large room inventory-on the order of more than 150,000 guest rooms-making the Strip one of the highest-capacity hotel corridors in the United States. That vast scale of hotel space and the frequency of large conventions are recurring themes of local humor about the city's hospitality industry and transient visitor culture. The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority publishes official statistics on rooms and occupancy from its offices.
