Priceline Hotel: Priceline Express Deals

[djoz187]

Hi all,

Late night question. I'd like to book a room Strip South for 5/26. I see in the Priceline Express Deals there is a 4 Star Hotel for $71 (save 55% or more), includes free parking, casino, fitness, pool, business center. When I search those amenities I get Caesars($221), Tropicana($159), and Westin($159). I'd love to just book the deal but I don't want to get stuck with Westin as I have family staying at NYNY and Excalibur. Also, when I searched the South Strip Vicinity it looks like Westin is part of East of Strip and not South but I could be wrong.

Should I book the express deal and hope its Tropicana or should I bid and try and get a better deal?

Cheers,

Oscar

Welcome "officially" to BetterBidding.

The current information we have is that the Westin is zoned for East of Strip. But zones and ratings can change at anytime.

You can try to undercut the price with bidding 4* in the South zone.

And have in mind that the 4* PRICELINE EXPRESS deal don't have to be Tropicana.

Let us know your thoughts and we'll go from there.

Thanks for the info yellowdog!

I'm already staying at Excalibur 5/24 & 5/25, I'm touring a timeshare and got my room comped. I'd love to just stay at Excalibur again but the room rates are about $130 direct and Priceline looks to be about the same. Should I try and bid to get for a lower rate or should I go with the Express deal? If bidding, what's the best way to go about this. And of course I'll be sure to click the link and report my win.

The odd numbers on the resort fee indicates that this amount is with tax.

I can't get the same PRICELINE EXPRESS hotel to appear on my search. Can you please run a new search and confirm that you still can see this hotel on your search

Thanx for using boards PRICELINE link :)

I just did the express bidding at $36 (Monday & Tuesday Nights) + the $22.39 resort fee and it confirmed me for Tropicana ... Not bad, I'll take it.

It would be greatly appreciated if you could post this win as a new/separate thread with the details of your win (exact date/s, zone, star rating, price in USD$ per night before taxes/fees.)

Very nice rate for this property - glad you are satisfied with the win.
