bluelighter Posted March 14, 2016 Report Posted March 14, 2016 It's been a while since i've used the site but glad to see it bigger and improved compared to 8 years ago :). Went through the HOTWIRE link in the website - located a two identical $100 north strip area hotel - only difference amenities being laundry; one was venetian and the other was palazzo. only problem is hotwire site does not show full decription so when i went to book - both were showing same amenities- and due to same price not able to discrern the two. one said "casino hotel" the other said "all-suites hotel" well both are all suites so no help. Noticed that one had slightly higher approval rating. Went with it and came out Palazzo. going rate at palazzo that night is $270 before tax. thanks! and go blue!

bluelighter Posted March 14, 2016 Author Report Posted March 14, 2016 Hi replying with amenities, They seem to match what was on Betterbidding. The trouble was not being able to see all amenities on Hotwire to confirm the property before purchase (with prices, zones, stars being the same - its a bit confusing) accessible for visually impairedac cessible for hearing impaired acessible path of travel in-room accessibility accessible bathroom accessible parking roll-in shower Suite Resort Free parking Free Internet Casino Fitness center Pool(s) Restaurant(s) Business center Internet access Golf nearby Tennis nearby Spa services accessible for visually impairedac cessible for hearing impaired acessible path of travel in-room accessibility accessible bathroom accessible parking roll-in shower
bluelighter Posted March 14, 2016 Author Report Posted March 14, 2016 Oh also - one weird thing was on resort fees as i know Palazzo resort rates are same as Venetian - $32 per night. Perhaps Hotwire is showing wrong information? The other $100 5* property (assumed to be Venetian) showed correct $32 per night. For a sec i thought it could be the Anthology Suites at Caesar's as that property is supposedly USD $29 but it turns out it was Palazzo indeed. This hotel typically charges guests a resort fee of about USD29 per room per night, regardless of how the room is booked. The hotel collects this fee directly from you, so it doesnt show in your Hotwire total.
AaronJB Posted March 14, 2016 Report Posted March 14, 2016 HOTWIRE lists approximate rather than exact resort fees ("this hotel typically charges guests a resort fee of about USD29".) and they don't always update as quickly as the hotel changes the amount. You can always see the full amenity set before your purchase by searching, and purchasing, using the EASY VIEW TAB of our BiddingHelper.com. Very nice win for this property and hope you are looking forward to your stay. For the future please book through our sister site MAPS and HOTELS.com for your regular rate bookings.
