Adrienekeating Posted May 30, 2015 Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 I will try to make this as sort as possible. We are going to Vegas July 19th through the 24th. We are comped at the mirage for the 19th and 20th. I went through hotwire hot deals and booked the venetian for the 21st through the 22nd. ( the reason I didn't book the rest at the same time is after taxes and fees it would have been cheaper to book it through the hotel so I figured I would wait and see if the price for the 2 nights I still need go down.) anyways, I just checked at hotwire is still the same price so I checked priceline, they have what I believe to be the venetian for $124 a night for a total of $294.76 after taxes and fees for the 2 nights. My main question is, are there any 5 star north hotels with a 8+ rating? From the research I have done it can't be encore, wynn or palazzo because they all have 9+ and it can't be trump because it has a casino. Am I basically guaranteed the venetian? Thanks so much for your help. Link to comment
AaronJB Posted May 30, 2015 Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 8+ means 8 or higher, which could mean 9 or above. If you would like assistance trying to ID a listing, please confirm the amenities that are showing with the listing.

Adrienekeating Posted May 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 You are right I didn't think of it that way. Would they list it as 8+ if it were 9+? I went through the bidding helper link about a half hour ago and it was there and just did again and it was gone. It is only showing one that looks like trump. I then went directly to PRICELINE and it showed up for $108.00 per night. The guaranteed amenities are indoor or outdoor pool, casino, restaurant, fitness center, free parking, business center. I would be more than happy to use your link but I don't know how to make it show up Link to comment
AaronJB Posted May 30, 2015 Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 I'm seeing a 5* North Strip for $108 for these dates w/Indoor or Outdoor Pool, Restaurant, Free Parking, Business Center, Casino, Fitness Center and 42% off. This amenity set has been seen with the Venetian, Wynn, Encore and Palazzo. I'd lean towards the Venetian as being the more likely, but any of them would be a possibility.

Adrienekeating Posted May 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 I'm not sure if this makes a difference but it also has this as a description. You'll find spectacular gaming and shopping along the north end of the Strip, stone's throw north of Flamingo Road. The casinos along the strip offer great restaurants, exceptional gaming, and a variety of entertaining shows. If the money you won is burning a hole in your pocket, come to the north end of the Strip to experience the best shopping in Vegas. Multiple golf clubs are also nearby.I have never used priceline express before, do they normally list as an 8+ property if it is a 9+ property? Link to comment

This is the description used for all listings in the zone. It's not frequent, but it is possible that something could show with an 8+ and have a 9+ rating.

Adrienekeating Posted May 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 Ok. Thanks for your opinion. I think I will go for it, I just have to convince my boyfriend that it's not that big of a deal to change hotels if we encore or wynn. Link to comment

Adrienekeating Posted June 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 I convinced the boyfriend to book the pricline deal before it vanishes. I have tried several times to go through the bidding helper link so you get credit for my booking because you have been so helpful but every time I try only trump shows up when I click 5 star north. I'm not sure if it matters but I am on an ipad. If I go straight to priceline it is showing as $102.00. Please let me know if there is a way to make it show up using your link Link to comment

I did a ton of research with the help of this site I saved $252.00 between my HOTWIRE deal on the first night and my PRICELINE deal on the second & 3rd night after taxes and fees. Thanks again so much!! Link to comment
