whitepaper Las Vegas Hotel Improves Decision Making and Guest Satisfaction With In-House Portal2007-04-01 Microsoft
  The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas is an immensely popular location in one of the biggest tourist destinations in the world.

So the hotel created an intranet portal using out-of-the-box components from Microsoft software that the hotel owned - and without the help of outside consultants. The portal grew, a page at a time, to encompass information from all hotel departments. The results: Staffing and financial decisions can be made more quickly, in time to affect both labor costs and guest satisfaction.
