Priceline Hotel: Las Vegas Strip North 5* for 5/2/14 - 5/7/14

[retfar]

Hi there. I need to book a hotel for Vegas for May 2-7, 2014. Is it too early to start booking now or would it be better to wait until early next year? I'm looking at staying at a 5* Strip North hotel. My last four visits to Vegas, I've stayed at the Wynn or the Venetian by buying through PRICELINE so I've been really lucky. I pretty much want to stay at either Wynn, Venetian or Palazzo. These are the only 5* hotels in Strip North, right? I don't want the Trump. If you can help me with a bidding strategy, that would be awesome. In May this year, I was at the Venetian and got it for $120 a night. So I'm hoping for the same month next year I could get it for around the same price or up to $140 or so, I guess. Thanks in advance. :)

Oh, forgot Encore is also 5* and it would be great to stay there too.

It's a little far in advance at this point, but it's not too early to start researching and looking at possible initial bids. At this point, given the rates I'm seeing, I don't think $140 is going to be enough for a 5* in Strip North, but I think getting something under $140 in Strip South should not be difficult.

Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

I would start bidding now since as per above $140 for the Strip North zone would be a 'good deal' at current prices, and you have the following conventions taking place during your dates above:

20K convention ending on 5/2 (some attendees may stay a day later so this may still effect hotel demand for this nite)

10K convention 5/5-5/8

30K convention 5/6-5/8

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Let us know how it goes or if we can be of help with a bidding strategy or any other information.

Good luck.
