supergas6 Posted August 26, 2014 Report Posted August 26, 2014 I have typically stayed at the Trump for my annual Labor Day trip, but the rates are running higher than usual this year (about $160 on Hotwire vs. the usual $120 or so in past years). I love the Trump since I can always give them the $20 sandwich and upgrade, but thought maybe I would look at saving some coin this year because the rates are running high. So, I figured I would try 4* hotels on the strip, but am struggling to figure out what I might get. A 4* "Center Strip area" for these dates (80% recommended) comes up at $89/night (resort fee "about $19.95/night"). Amenities are: Free parkingFree InternetPet FriendlyCasinoSmoke Free RoomsFitness CenterPool(s)Restaurant(s)Business Center My guess is this is the Westin or Planet Hollywood. I've never stayed at either. A second property is a 4* South Strip Area (65% recommended) is $107/night (resort fee "about $20/night"). Amenities are: Free ParkingResortCasinoFitness CenterPool(s)Restaurant(s)Business CenterInternet AccessGolf Nearby I don't know what to think--the 65% rating is pretty low, however. Any thoughts? Finally, a third property is a 4* South Strip Area (75% recommended) is $124/night (with "about $19.99/night" resort fee). Amenities are: Free parkingFree InternetResortCasinoFitness CenterPool(s)Restaurant(s)Business CenterGolf Nearby I am guessing Tropicana. Not sure if I would find this worth saving the $100 (over three days) versus Trump...
AaronJB Posted August 26, 2014 Report Posted August 26, 2014 Welcome to Betterbidding. :) I believe there are more amenities then what you have posted above as HOTWIRE has a new interface that does not show the complete set of amenities unless you click thru a few extra links. If you repeat your search using our BiddingHelper.com.com tool... use the HOTWIRE EASY VIEW tab and then click the GREEN BUTTON next to each of these listings, do you see more amenities then what you have listed above? Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
