doyouhow Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Can someone help me figure out if this hotel I want to bid is Venetian? Info (PRICELINE EXPRESS): Date:Mon,May 18/19, one night Bid Price: $248/per night (it is kinda pricey but we can only spend that day there); Discount: save 35% or more Amenities: with casino and without free wifi Because there are only five potential hotels (as indicated by Priceline via "what hotels") and the only two that are close in terms of price are Palazzo ($409) and Venetian ($399), it is 50/50 at least!

thereuare Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 Welcome to BetterBidding! I wouldn't recommend using the 'retail price' listed by PRICELINE (or HOTWIRE for that matter) in trying to determine the hotel. For help with this offer, please list the full list of amenities associated with this offer and we will have a look. Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPS and HOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
doyouhow Posted February 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 Thanks for your reply! Amenities: pool, casino, restaurant, fitness center, business center, free parking Rating: 8+; Five stars Ps: If trying to calculate the "retail price" is not a reliable way to determine the hotel then it becomes a bit more problematic...

AaronJB Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 The Venetian, Wynn, Palazzo and Encore have all been seen with these amenities previously. I'd lean towards the Venetian being somewhat more likely, but any of the four would be possible. Please keep us updated with what you decide and let us know if you have additional questions.

doyouhow Posted February 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 Right. These luxury hotels do not really differ in basic amenities. In fact, it does not really matter which one I get in the end, if it comes from one of the five hotels shown in the "what hotel" drop-down list (but Priceline also states there is a possibility that it may NOT come from the hotels in that list and in fact I will have to accept whatever they give me as long as the very vague decription matches, i.e. 5 stars, has all the amenities...)

thereuare Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 PRICELINE does not provide a list of possible hotels from which the one offered will be among, any hotel names are cited as examples of hotels of that star rating. We do maintain a Priceline Hotel List of all hotels reported to the board, but as per the comments at the top of that page, new hotels can be added/removed at any time (and star ratings can change as well) My guess for the PRICELINE EXPRESS property would be the Venetian or the Encore, and while things can change at any time, i would feel 'pretty good' about your chances of getting one of the hotels that you're hoping for.

Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
doyouhow Posted February 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2015 I just got the Venetian through ED for a two-night stay on May/21~23, for the price of 125$, all exclusive Venetian is the minimum I guess. But I am satisfied. Link to comment
