The Plaza Hotel and Casino has announced that they have entered an exclusive partnership with Expedia Inc. The partnership is the first of it’s kind, with a Las Vegas hotel-casino and an online travel agency.

The partnership is a multi-year partnership, and the agreement makes Expedia the only online travel agency that can offer the Plaza’s all new guest rooms and suites. Expedia is the world’s largest online travel company, so the Plaza Hotel and Casino are in very good company. Expedia will make the Plaza Hotel and Casino available to millions of domestic and international travels through their sites and affiliate sites. In return, the Plaza Hotel and Casino will feature Expedia Local Expert® Concierge Desk in downtown Las Vegas. Guests will be able to visit the desk to purchase tickets for events, make dinner reservations, and get tourism information from there.

Tony Santo, president and CEO of Santo Gaming, the licensee for Play LV, which is the operator for the Plaza Hotel and Casino said “Selling guest rooms is integral to the success of any hotel-casino. Expedia is one of the world’s most effective channels for delivering room night bookings to Las Vegas hotels, so this partnership just made sense.”

Expedia’s director of market management for the North American gaming region, Daniel Wathen said in regards about the partnership, “By partnering with the Plaza Hotel and Casino, we’re able to reintroduce their newly remodeled property to the nearly 60 million travelers that visit Expedia and Hotels.com sites each month, and provide them an exclusive opportunity to stay in one of downtown Las Vegas’ premier hotel-casinos.”
