Have you ever stepped into a hotel so massive you feel like you might need a GPS just to find the lobby again? Well, welcome to the world of hotel giants, the kind of places that don’t just offer a room with a view, but a whole city under one roof.
Here’s a look at some of the biggest hotel complexes across the globe, where size isn’t just a feature, it’s part of the experience.
Let’s kick things off in Malaysia. The First World Hotel in Genting Highlands doesn’t just go big, it goes all in. With over seven thousand rooms (yes, you read that right), it’s like a colorful Lego block mountain nestled next to a full-blown theme park. Think family chaos and vibrant fun, all at once.
Then we head to Las Vegas, the capital of all things over the top. The Venetian brings Italy to Nevada with its gondolas and marble, all wrapped up in a staggering 7,092 rooms. Not far away, the MGM Grand adds 6,852 rooms to the mix and throws in a lion or two just for kicks.
Over in Mecca, the Abraj Al Bait towers aren’t just hotels. They’re an experience, built to house pilgrims with 6,000 rooms beneath the famous clock tower. Meanwhile, Macau’s The Londoner adds a bit of British flair with red phone booths, crystal chandeliers, and another 6,000 keys to its name.
In Moscow, the Izmailovo Hotel may not be flashy, but it holds strong as Europe’s largest with 5,000 rooms, built for the 1980 Olympics and still standing tall.
Back in Vegas, Wynn and Encore, Mandalay Bay, and Luxor keep the Strip lit up, offering everything from pyramids to wave pools. And for a taste of Olympic legacy, Barkhatnye Sezony in Sochi adds Russian resort charm to the list with 4,688 rooms.
These aren’t just places to sleep. They’re places to get lost, to explore, and maybe even to live in. If you manage to remember where your room is tucked away.
