LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — A hotel on the north end of the Strip is without running water after a construction mishap, but the hotel is working to resolve the issue, according to a statement from the resort.
Sahara Las Vegas said that the water issue started Wednesday after survey work on the property by a contractor led to a breached water line.
The hotel said this lead to “intermittent issues” with the water services while work was done to repair the breach.
Sahara said in its statement that guests will receive complementary bottle water at every floor in the elevator lobby for immediate needs and complimentary refreshments and breakfast items in the lobby while restaurants are temporarily closed.
A viewer reached out to 8 News Now expressing concern for the situation, saying none of the bathrooms in the hotel are working and mentioned being provided “a bucket” in the hotel room.
Sahara’s statement said the resort is “working diligently” to fix the issue and is taking measures to assist guests in the meantime. The statement did not give an estimated time of restoration.
