Las Vegas ranks last on hotel quality in USA
ETW Staff– Mumbai
Hotels in Las Vegas are the worst rated in the United States according to a recent survey from TravelMag.com. The online travel magazine compared 30 main US destinations based on the reviews their hotels have received over the past 12 months.
Specifically, the survey encompasses all three and four star hotel ratings posted by guests after their stay on the hotel booking site Expedia. TravelMag.com then categorised these one star (worst) to five star (best) ratings into positive (four or five), neutral (three) or negative (one or two).
In Las Vegas, only 48 per cent of three star hotel reviews have been positive this past year. Meanwhile 25 per cent of Sin City guests have been disappointed with their hotel. The remaining 27 per cent of overnight visitors gave their stay a neutral review. Although four star hotels were better evaluated (69 per cent positive / 19 per cent negative / 13 per cent neutral), Vegas hotels in general have achieved, on average, the worst evaluations among all 30 destinations analysed by the survey.
On the other hand, hotels in Philadelphia have earned the best average ratings, with 71 per cent of all three star and 83 per cent of all four star hotels being evaluated as positive by their guests over the past 12 months. Among the other destinations on the survey receiving top hotel reviews are Portland, Seattle, Chicago and Charlotte.
