I only needed a single bed so I didnt bother calling the hotel. Priceline only guarantees single bed, though if you are one of the first batches of people to arrive at the hotel to check in, you probably wont have trouble requesting a double. Though I've noticed some places are charging more now for doubles. I think Hotwire has an option to guarantee double beds. Also, The Palazzo/Venetion all have sofa beds so technically it's double bed I guess :)

Ok, I ended up doing some bidding based on info I saw on another post. I bid $121 per night for 7/7 & 7/8 and clicked the North Las Vegas Strip Zone. It was rejected again so I added the Boulder Strip Zone and bid $123 per night. This was accepted and I ended up winning the Palazzo (which was my first preference from the start). I am VERY happy to get this hotel at this price. Here is the breakdown: Room Subtotal: $246.00 Taxes and Fees: $41.16 Total Room Cost: $287.16

Thanks for this info! I just booked on Priceline the exact same deal for 7/7 & 7/8 through Priceline by bidding $123 per night. I bid up to $121 before my bid of $123 was accepted. I am very very happy with this price for this great hotel! Thank you everyone!!

Thanks, that's helpful info but at the same time it makes me hesitant. I would think the bid price would be cheaper than the express deal. Oh well, since it's vegas I will have to roll the dice eventually, most likely on the express deal.

When I saw the $131 express deal, I actually tried bidding to see if I could get it cheaper. I bid $119 for 5* North Strip Zone. The message popped up saying they could not accept my bid, but if I was willing to bid $139 they would accept it. I did not bid again because I am not too good with picking zones and figured $131 was cheaper anyway. Any suggestions about bidding differently? I'm leaning towards the $131 express deal. Do you know of any 5* in the North Area I might get that aren't Wynn/Encore/Palazzo/Venetian? My main goal is to get any of those four only. Thanks!

done and done!

Does anyone have any experience using Priceline's express deals? I just noticed this feature. I am trying to book the Wynn/Encore/Venetian/Pallazzo for the nights of 7/7 & 7/8. Here is what Priceline is offering for $131 per night express deal: LAS VEGAS STRIP NORTH AREA -Indoor or Outdoor Pool -Free Parking -Restaurant -Business Center -Casino -Fitness Center There is also a resort fee of $22.40 per night. I'm thinking its Pallazo, but at $131 it's almost to good to be true.

Thanks, I ended up finding Planet Hollywood during a 72 hour sale on PRICELINE for $139 which I think is a steal for 5/18 and 5/19. I used the PRICELINE link on this website though so hopefully you got credit. Thanks.

Great, done and done. Thanks!

I will be in Vegas the two nights of 5/18 and 5/19 and HOTWIRE is showing a 4 star hotel for $189 in the Strip South Area. It is showing the normal price is $239. I am trying to avoid Tropicana, MGM Grand, and Mandalay Bay. Best case scenario is Planet Hollywood or Monte Carlo. The amenities are listed below.
