In Europe Center Parcs might be considered:
-
a chain of resort hotels, since the sites are largely man-made (though set in natural surroundings such as country parks)

Though hotels have always been built in popular destinations, the defining characteristic of a resort hotel is that it exists purely to serve another attraction, the two having the same owners.
On the Las Vegas Strip there is a tradition of one-upmanship with luxurious and extravagant hotels in a concentrated area.
