AxelyFoley Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 My problem is I want to book on the North End but want to avoid the Trump. I want to do the name your own price tool on priceline. Looking at the price on express deals, it looks like the trump option is the $189 option. My question is if I bid in the $250 range, is it possible to not get the Trump? I'd hate to pay $250 for a hotel I could have just gotten for $189. Thanks for any guidance.

yellowdog Posted August 13, 2014 Report Posted August 13, 2014 My question is if I bid in the $250 range, is it possible to not get the Trump?No, you can avoid Trump by doing this since you don't know if any other hotels have loaded inventory to PRICELINE. If any other hotel don't have rooms at PRICELINE will you end up overpaying for Trump. Would you like to try your luck for the South zone? Let us know how you want to play this and we'll go from there. Please use the PRICELINE and hot.wire links on the board to begin your purchases and searches. Yellowdog.
AxelyFoley Posted August 13, 2014 Author Report Posted August 13, 2014 Thanks for the response. I'd like to stay in the North since the rest of my party is at the Venetian. I already have a refundable reservation at TI but if I could get a 5 star for around 250 a night, I'd jump in it for the north strip (not trump).
yellowdog Posted August 14, 2014 Report Posted August 14, 2014 At the moment isn't there much you can do. I would't take a chance bidding 5* for North zone if you don't want to stay at Trump. How much is your refundable reservation at TI? Keep us updated on your progress and let us know what you ultimately decide or if we can be of further help. Yellowdog.

AxelyFoley Posted August 14, 2014 Author Report Posted August 14, 2014 The refundale deposit is for $340.
thereuare Posted August 14, 2014 Report Posted August 14, 2014 That is for one nite, correct?

AxelyFoley Posted August 14, 2014 Author Report Posted August 14, 2014 that is for two nights including taxes but not resort fees.
thereuare Posted August 15, 2014 Report Posted August 15, 2014 That would appear to be a very good rate for these dates at this time. You could monitor rates for your dates at the 5* hotels using RateDrop, and if/when you see any drop in price at any of the casino hotels it would be a good time to check HOTWIRE / PL express to see if the rate at any of the casino hotels in the zone have dropped in price as well.

Good luck and let us know what you ultimately end up doing (even if you simply end up keeping your back-up reservation at TI) Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
