smellybeauty Posted June 20, 2012 Report Posted June 20, 2012 Looking to visit Vegas the 1st week of July. I was wondering if anyone who won a bid through Priceline for the Venetian or Palazzo received the Carnevale coupons upon check in?
AaronJB Posted June 21, 2012 Report Posted June 21, 2012 Welcome to Betterbidding. :)I don't believe anyone has reported getting tickets, but PRICELINE reservations are not eligible for upgrades and I wouldn't expect bonuses. It's worth a try to ask, but I wouldn't go in with high expectations.If you need assistance with your stay, please provide the exact date/s of travel and desired budget per night.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
smellybeauty Posted June 21, 2012 Author Report Posted June 21, 2012 Thanks for your response! This is where I'm confused because if I book it for the price listed on Priceline.com ($147/night), it is included. So would I call Priceline or the hotel?
smellybeauty Posted June 21, 2012 Author Report Posted June 21, 2012 As for my stay, it's 7/2 - 7/5 or 6. I would like to keep it under $100/night so does anyone have any suggestions for bidding to ensure I get the Venetian or Palazzo? I've spent the day looking at the faq's and various posts related to each hotel. I see it's zone 7 and that's great as I want to stay on the strip and as close to the middle as possible and book a 5*.
smellybeauty Posted June 21, 2012 Author Report Posted June 21, 2012 Reservations didn't know but gave me a better rate than anticipated - decisions, decisions!
thereuare Posted June 21, 2012 Report Posted June 21, 2012 You can't bid on a specific hotel when using PRICELINE, you have to be able to accept any hotel in the zone at the star level (or higher) that you choose. With HOTWIRE you can often take an educated guess as to what is being offered based upon the amenities associated with the property, but it's still a 'best guess' and no guarantees you will receive the hotel you're hoping for. As well, HOTWIRE only shows one hotel at each star level per zone, so there is a chance the hotel you're hoping for isn't the one which is offered for your particular dates.What was the rate you were offered at the Venetian?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.
