Vegas’ occupancy rate is still down about 4 percent from the pre-2008 Recession days, despite the fact that no new hotels have opened on the Strip and the Rivera has closed.
The idea that it would be impossible for a known gambler to get a that room is silly.
You haven’t been around here much lately. The Strip is jammed with thousands upon thousands of foreigners from Europe and Asia. Impossible to be suddenly comp-ed a suite that was already booked in advance. No, but you are throwing down seven figures in the casino to get that suite on a weekend this time of year.
