Priceline Hotel: 4 star Priceline Express hotels in The Strip

Hi everybody!

 

I was introduced to betterbidding recently and spent some time reading and getting familiar with Priceline. I tried to send some bids in the 4.5 and 5 star levels, but I think 4 star and below is more around what I can afford.

 

I am a student visiting Las Vegas for the first time and only need two nights hotel stay from June 30 - July 2. I saw these two on Priceline Express and using betterbidding, I have some ideas of what they might be:

 

1) MGM?

The only 4 Star Hotel in the SE Area seems to be MGM Grand based on the guide, but I am unsure...

4-Star Hotel and Casino  

The Strip - Southeast Area 

$96/night

Mandatory fee of USD 74.82 per room per stay is collected at the hotel.

 

Amenities 

 Free Parking

 Business Center

 Indoor or Outdoor Pool

 Casino

 Fitness Center

 No Smoking Rooms/Facilities

 

2) Linq? 

Matched via the airport shuttle

4-Star Hotel and Casino  

The Strip - Northeast Area

$104/night

Mandatory fee of USD 68.02 per room per stay is collected at the hotel.

 

Amenities 

 Business Center

 Restaurant

 Airport Shuttle

 Indoor or Outdoor Pool

 Casino

 Fitness Center

 No Smoking Rooms/Facilities

 

Would you recommend these?

Do you think I can score a 4 star hotel on the strip around this price or lower using bids? I would like to save as much on my hotel stay as possible - I'm coming from Canada and our dollar is getting a beating! 

 

Thanks in advance,

Matt

Welcome to BetterBidding!

 

Best guess for this PRICELINE EXPRESS offer (confirm your dates on the landing pages of the provided links):

 

4* The Strip - Southeast for $96
Free Parking
Business Center
Indoor or Outdoor Pool
Casino
Fitness Center
No Smoking Rooms/Facilities
==> likely the Tropicana

 

and for this one:

4* The Strip - Northeast for $104
Business Center
Restaurant
Airport Shuttle
Indoor or Outdoor Pool
Casino
Fitness Center
No Smoking Rooms/Facilities
==> best guess would be The Linq

 

Of the two i would tend to favor the Linq as i prefer the hotels on this part of the strip and they have a nice new promenade that has recently opened next to the property which provides some nice outdoor space, some non-casino bars, and a In and Out Burger.

 

You could try bidding on PRICELINE for a lower price, but the you are subject to receiving any hotel at the star rating (or higher) in the zones that you decide to bid and no ability to try to target/guess a specific hotel.

Thanks for your help! The BetterBidding guide lists Tropicana in the Southwest category. The Southeast category only lists MGM as a 4* - do you know how updated the guide is? I was thinking maybe to do a bid in 4* in the SE category, assuming there's just MGM on that level.

 

A new one just popped up on my new search:

 

4-Star Hotel and Casino  

The Strip - Southwest Area 

$108/night

Mandatory fee of USD 79.36 per room per stay is collected at the hotel.

 

Best Price. GUARANTEED

Amenities 

 Business Center

 Restaurant

 Free Internet

 Casino

 Fitness Center

 No Smoking Rooms/Facilities

 

Looking at the SW list in the guide, they all list pools, which this one doesn't list, so I am

The site's Hotwire Hotel List and Priceline Hotel List for Nevada (as well as for all other areas) are updated as new information is reported to the board. As noted at the top of the lists, they only contain what has been reported to the board.

 

If you would like to bid let us know, but do be aware that you have to be willing to accept potentially at hotel at the star rating chosen in the zone picked. Additionally, with the coupon in my signature for PRICELINE EXPRESS, it may make more sense with the discount to look on PRICELINE EXPRESS for something that you're more likely to be satisfied with.

 

For PRICELINE EXPRESS (please confirm that the correct dates of travel are showing on the detail page after clicking the link below.)
 

4* The Strip - Southwest for $108
Business Center
Restaurant
Free Internet
Casino
Fitness Center
No Smoking Rooms/Facilities
>>>Guess would be Monte Carlo

The zone boundaries change frequently and sometimes with very minor differences, so it's hard to keep up with each and every change although we do make changes as soon as we learn of them (although sometimes drastic changes where an entire region gets new zones and boundaries it can take longer as we have to find a large block of time in order to research and reclassify each property)... currently the Tropicana is in The Strip - Southeast zone (and as an example of the above, look closely at The Strip - Southeast zone where it meets The Strip - Southwest zone near Las Vegas Blvd... the zone boundary here used to be a straight line down Las Vegas Blvd, but currently it's indented a bit at this location... the main entrance to MGM is in the Southwest zone, but the rest of the hotel is in the Southeast zone, so which zone exactly is PRICELINE putting it in? (as this is a new boundary we can't say for certain until it's reported to the board or if we think we have identified the property in one of these two zones)
