22 "Why not just have single-person Holodecks? For interaction, the computer could just link them all together!" (Holodeck and Computers - Star Trek)

According to the TNG Tech Manual, there are four primary Holodecks and
a number of personal ones. They could indeed be linked, but part of
the fun of a Holodeck is the interaction with other people, knowing
that they are real.

These do exist on Deep Space 9 in Quark's Bar, and are called
holosuites. Some are quite small ("A Man Alone" [DS9]), others large
enough for a number of people ("Blood Oath" [DS9]).
