Propst Posted January 26, 2013 Author Report Posted January 26, 2013 It shows mainly Mirage and TI for 4* and mainly Venetian, Palazzo or Wynn for 5*I'm looking to book the weekend of March 22-25. It's always a high time with opening round of NCAA and think it's around college spring break as well.Anyone have any ideas of what will work for rates?I'm REALLY trying to get the 5* and still have plenty of time - I've tried a few rates of $94, $98 and just now $118 - all rejected.Hotwire is showing Venetian/Palazzo for about $160...usually do my research there and go down a bit per night on my bids. Been noticing others "around" that same time are booking from $120-$135 (still even better than Hotwire). @$118 it didn't even counter - think I should just add $5 @ a time?Thoughts?4* is an option, but last resort.Thanks in advance for anyone's help and reply.

Propst Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Posted January 27, 2013 I'm not following...use the links?Just asking for your opinion
AaronJB Posted January 27, 2013 Report Posted January 27, 2013 If this is a traditionally tough time with NCAA and Spring Break from colleges, I wouldn't rush higher, but I would be persistent in trying to lock in something. What would be your desired max budget per night at the 5* level before considering a lower star rating?I'm seeing (as you are) a possible Venetian/Palazzo on the discount side of HOTWIRE for $165 (the price I see may vary slightly from what you see.)I'd go up by $3's - $121, $124, $127, $130. I'd hope that you will be successful in the $120-135 range, BUT: if this is a traditionally busy period of time then the discounts may be slighter and may require a bit over the $135 mark. Just because you are not getting a counter-offer does not mean that you are not close; counter-offers are not seen with great frequency.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches, and let us know if you have any questions before bidding.
Propst Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Posted January 27, 2013 Appreciate the feedback. I love this forum as Ive used hotwire & priceline for 15+ yrs for every biz or personal booking (outside Caribbean as wife doesn't like not knowing)...wish they offered rewards as much as I spend....but it's unreal the $ I've saved as well...hence the REAL rewardsKeep everyone posted!
