Hotel Rooms Are Hard to Find…
It seems like Las Vegas is almost completely booked out for SHOT Show week this year. Finding an affordable room is harder than in years before. The reason is simple. There are THREE major industry conventions in Las Vegas this same week, including the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (24,000 attendees) and International Builders Show (49,000 attendees), which run simultaneously in the Las Vegas Convention Center. If you haven’t booked a room yet, expect to pay a premium. And expect it to be harder than ever to find a taxi.

Fees might double, but rooms are not even close to being sold out. Here’s why: The 2014 CES had over 160,000 visitors, and the 2015 CES (which ended last Friday) had more. There were still rooms available, even with the adult entertainment awards show happening at the same time.
