The Southern Nevada Health District is investigating cases of Legionnaires’ disease among guests of two Las Vegas hotels.

Two guests who stayed at Caesars Palace and another who stayed at The Orleans Hotel & Casino were diagnosed with the illness, according to Thursday news releases. The disease is caused by Legionella bacteria.

The Caesars Palace customers stayed at the hotel roughly seven months apart in 2022 and 2023, according to a spokesperson for operator Caesars Entertainment.

“Caesars Palace maintains a robust safety program to minimize the potential for the Legionella bacteria to survive in the water systems at its property that meet or exceed industry standards,” the spokesperson told USA TODAY in an emailed statement.
