Priceline Hotel: 5* Vegas (Strip) Venetian

[Pook]

Just booked a stay at the Venetian for $135/night thru Priceline. Here's a breakdown of the total:

5 nights: $675

Taxes: $84.27

Total: $759.27

I would like to thank this board (first time booking after finding this site). Especially helpful was the tip on choosing different areas so I could rebid quickly since I am very impatient. 4th of July should be fun!

Glad you were able to use the information here to your advantage and get a great rate at the Venetian!

Looks like a great place to be for the July 4th holiday.

Do you recall the amount of your bid that was rejected before the $135 acceptance?

Thanks for posting and enjoy your stay.

I bid $100 then $125 before getting the $135 price. Hotwire had it listed at $154 so I figured I got a relatively decent deal. I'm happy, so I guess mission accomplished.

Wow, that's kind of sad--I just realized I posted in the Hotwire forum and not the Priceline. Sorry if I'm throwing anyone off.

Just an update:

I called the Venetian because I wanted two queen beds and was informed I had room with one king (I pretty much assumed this was the case). I asked the Venetian for a room with two queens and they said I should contact Priceline. So I did. Priceline was extremely nice and they called the front desk of the Venetian on my behalf to request 2 beds. They said I could have a room with 2 queens at no additional charge. So, I'm happy!

Nice work!
