Thank you for clarifying the resort/4.5* question for me Romelle! And thanks again Admin for helping me navigate this site. Still learning but catching on. :)
Good Morning! Just wanted to let you know that my bid for Strip South was a bust, I used the strategy below and did not win my top choices. I switched over to Strip North 4* and repeated the steps. After being rejected at $60 at the 4th try, I added Las Vegas Vicinity South and increased to $65. I won the bid and got Treasure Island. Thank you for all your help! I will post the winning bid. Am I supposed to start a new thread or am I suppose to change the title of this one or something? Thanks again! Marie
My top choice would be to try to bid for 5* for $99 strip south, if rejected, 4* strip south for $60. Then options 1 then 2 from your response. I would like to try to bid first then fall back on the Hotwire hotels if bids fail.
I had a feeling that might be South Point but wanted a second opinion. I will definitely consider that hotel if my bids fail. I apologize about the vague descriptions, for some reason I thought I had the wording verbatim from Priceline. I am looking at Near Las Vegas Strip East and can include Las Vegas Convention center, Areas 12 and 6. Currently the median price for these 2 areas are $312. What strategy would you suggest I begin with at a target winning bid of $130?
For Sun-Tues I found the hotels to drop as low as $74 a night for a 4* and $147 for a 5*. If I wanted to win a bid at $60 and $99 respectively where should I start? First choice to stay South Strip, then north strip. I've read the re-bidding forum extensively so that I don't make a mistake. My only concern was when I read an article there was an update at the end where the bidder was placed at a resort outside his desired area because he chose a 4* and Henderson which did not have a 4* but a resort. This terrified me a little because I can not risk being stuck out at Henderson. Can you please address how I can avoid this? May I please have assistance in identifying the following hotel? Travel dates 6/10-6/12 First hotel: 4-star Hotel in Las Vegas Strip - North This Hotel features the following amenities: Resort Free Parking Casino Fitness Center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business Center High-Speed Internet Access Golf Nearby Tennis Nearby Spa Services This hotel charges a resort fee. This hotel typically charges all guests a resort fee regardless of how the room is booked. The hotel collects this fee of about US$ 25 per room per night directly from you, so it won't show in your Hotwire
Thank you, I will start a new thread for my sun-tues stay. Looking at the priceline map we would like to try for the east side of the strip as well as the south of strip, 4*. I understand resort fees may apply at check-in but was hoping to get the base cost between $110-$130 so overall cost would be $150ish. Trump and the stratosphere is not a desirable location but will consider once all options are exercised. Would you help me ID the following hotel I found on hotwire?

Thank you for helping me learn how to post on this website, I'm still trying to learn all the rules. The above 2 stays are for 6/10-6/12 only, I will post this in a separate thread. Am I supposed to keep Priceline and Hotwire separate or can I start one thread if I'm working with both sites? If I am able to start a single thread please let me know which board to post to. We are ok with staying off the strip for Saturday 6/9 but do not want to stay downtown. I have been to Vegas many times but I normally travel with my husband who has hotel comps so I never really had to book my own place. We are thinking of renting a car or cabbing it for the first day and then staying on the strip for the remaining days. Ideally we would like to stay within 3-4 miles of the strip but whatever we get at a low rate will be great. At what price do you think I should start bid at on the Saturday stay? Would love to keep it as close to $130. If I need to drop down to 3* that would be ok too.

Hello, I am new to the hotel bidding world and have heard about this site from my sister who is a avid fan. I am traveling to Vegas for the weekend of 6/9-6/12 and through some research I found that there is a MMA fight 6/9 that is inflating the costs of hotels all around the strip stretching to Henderson. Ideally we wanted to stay on the strip for all 3 nights but the Saturday stay is killing our budget. Could you provide some advice on the following questions? 1) The cost of stay Sun-Tues drops significantly so we are willing to bid for a lower end hotel for Saturday and then move to the strip on Sunday. Can you provide any links or information on surrounding hotels off the strip that is close enough to walk? 2) After much research I found that a 3* hotel for Saturday night is averaging about $200 a night, give or take $50. Would a budget of $120 before taxes and resort fees be reasonable or do I need to go higher? 3) For Sun-Tues I found the hotels to drop as low as $74 a night for a 4* and $147 for a 5*. If I wanted to win a bid at $60 and $99 respectively where should I start? I've read the re-bidding forum extensively so that I don't make a mistake. My only concern was when I read an article there was an update at the end where the bidder was placed at a resort outside his desired area because he chose a 4* and Henderson which did not have a 4* but a resort. This terrified me a little because I can not risk being stuck out at Henderson. Can you please address how I can avoid this? Article below: Looking forward to a great bid win!
