Priceline Hotel: 5* Las Vegas (Strip North) Palazzo

[alair_2000]

I have been trying to get a 5* (Las Vegas Strip North) in the same dates above with no luck with a $110 bid!!!

So I am downgrading to 4* and I need some help from you:

These are the specs I am looking for in the hotel:

1) must be in the Vegas Strip

2) Very clean

3) Willing to bid up to $85 for 4 stars hotel.

What Areas should I choose to bid in? Any techniques I should follow to get best prices?

Welcome to BetterBidding :)

Is $110 you max for a 5* or can you stretch it to $125?

Would a $96 5* South Strip be ok for you? HOTWIRE got what i belive is Aria Hotel and Casino.

$125 is over my budget especially that I will be also paying resort and other hidden fees!! I was hoping to get the north strip for $86 - $94 like some of the lucky ppl here, but with no luck.

This is why I am downgrading to 4* and my max bid for it will be $85. Which area is cleaner and newer? South or North strip?

I don't know any hotels in the south strip. $96 is fine if the hotel and area is good. Which hotel is this?

Thanks for your reply

You can see the hotels which have previously been reported to the board in each zone in the Priceline Hotel List.

I believe yellowdog is referring a 5* hotel on HOTWIRE which he believes is the Aria.. but if you run your own HOTWIRE search for these dates and post the amenities associated with the 5* hotel in this zone we'll take a look and give our thoughts regarding a possible ID.

I ended up bidding up to $140 and finally got the Palazzo which is a very nice hotel. The problem is that this was actually higher than their price offered in their site by $1. :) So I let it go because it's only $1 difference

Thanks for the follow-up. Your post is a reminder of why it's necessary to check hotel direct rates before you bid to ensure that you don't overbid.

Please remember to follow-up your threads with whatever you end up doing for the stay, even if you choose to book direct, cancel your trip, etc.

Hope you enjoyed your stay.
