We all know that the largest hotel in the world is the Hotel First World in the Genting Highlands with 6,114 rooms. The First World is a good hotel, but has a extremely weird exterior facade. The Venetian/Palazzo complex in Las Vegas is the world's largest hotel complex with 3,036 rooms in the first tower, 1,013 rooms in the Venezia Tower, and 3,068 in the Palazzo Tower. Well, what about the largest hotel in a specific city? The Beijing International Hotel is the largest hotel in Beijing with over 900 rooms, the Sheraton Vancouver is the largest hotel in Vancouver with 734 rooms in two buildings (One Wall Centre is one of those buildings). Any other cities with hotels as large as those two?

* I had the idea to start this thread because every time I look up the largest hotel in a specific city, even on Google, they give me some of that "Best Western - World's Largest Hotel Chain" crap.

The former Hotel de Mexico was supposed to be the largest hotel in Mexico City, but it was converted into an office building in the early-to-mid 90s. I don't even know what the largest hotel in Mexico City is now.

Largest in Dallas is the Sheraton Dallas Hotel (formerly Adam's Mark Hotel and the Southland Center). Two of these buildings were originally built as office buildings and only one of the towers was built as a Sheraton Hotel. The hotel has 1,842 guestrooms.

It was never specified how many rooms the old Hotel de Mexico had, but I'm pretty sure the number is larger than that of the Nikko Mexico City Hotel

No such 'big' hotels in Metro Manila boasting of a thousand rooms or more. Those with rooms in excess of 500 are considered big already but not necessarily the best:

Makati Shangrila Hotel -- 699 rooms
Edsa Shangrila Hotel -- 632 rooms
Sofitel Philippine Plaza -- 609 rooms
Mandarin Oriental Hotel -- 550 rooms
Dusit Thani Hotel -- 538 rooms
Manila Pavilion Hotel & Casino -- 502 rooms
Manila Hotel -- 500 rooms
Manila Diamond Hotel -- 500 rooms

Best rated: Manila Peninsula Hotel -- 498 rooms

In Metro Cebu:

Waterfront Cebu Hotel & Casino -- 561 rooms
Mactan Shangrila Resort & Spa -- 547 rooms

Best rated: Plantation Bay Resort & Spa -- 256 rooms

Just because a hotel is the "best rated" doesn't mean it's the best. Peninsula, Mandarin Oriental, and Shangri-La all of the highest of standards, you cant go wrong staying at any of them.
