Motels in Las Vegas

Located in the southeastern part of Nevada, Las Vegas has transformed itself from a desert oasis to a bustling entertainment and gambling hub. Las Vegas was founded in 1905 when the Union Pacific Railroad auctioned off land to build a railroad town. In 1935 the completion of the Hoover Dam brought an influx of workers, boosting the local population.

The first resort on the Las Vegas Strip opened in 1941 – the El Rancho Vegas. The next 20 years saw the rise of iconic hotels like the Flamingo, Sahara, and Sands, attracting celebrities and gamblers.

Today, Las Vegas stands as a globally renowned destination, synonymous with entertainment, nightlife, and, of course, the famous Las Vegas Strip. The city's history reflects a remarkable evolution shaped by entertainment, tourism, and the dynamic spirit of the American West.

There are many exciting things to do in the Vegas area and seven Motel 6 and Studio 6 locations. You can check out the famous Las Vegas Strip with its dazzling lights and iconic hotels like Bellagio and Caesars Palace. Catch a live show or performance, try your luck at the casinos, or stroll downtown Fremont Street.
