Priceline Hotel: Las Vegas - South Strip

[iamamy]

Good morning.  This is my first time using Priceline.  I am headed to Vegas November 2 - 7th and cannot find a decent price on a hotel.  Could someone give me some suggestions?  I would like to stay in the 100.00 range per night.

Welcome to BetterBidding!

 

If you're looking for something on the Strip between Luxor and the Wynn i don't think your budget is realistic for your dates above, which not only includes a weekend, but is also during the Automotive Aftermarket Industry Week Convention, with an expected attendance of 160K.

 

Assuming your dates are firm are you willing to increase your budget, stay off-strip, or in the Stratosphere/Circus Circus part of the Strip? (which is not really what most consider to be 'the strip')

Thank you for your reply.  I am attending an event at the T-mobile arena that week.  I do plan to rent a car.  What would your recommendation be?

[thereuare]

Are you heading to the Arena multiple days of this trip or only once during the stay?

 

How far are you willing to drive?

 

Do you have any plans to 'hotel hop' along the strip?

We will be at the arena Wed. - Sunday the fly back home on Monday.

 

I would rather not be too far away from the strip....

 

No, but I could hotel hop...if it would benefit us.

I didn't mean "hotel hop' in the sense of SPLITTING YOUR PRICELINE BID... i meant it in the sense that many Vegas hotels offer an attraction (as a 'hook' to bring in guests to gamble) and part of the Vegas appeal is seeing what each property has to offer by hopping from one hotel to the next.

 

How about this:

3* McCarran International Airport (LAS) (confirm your dates on the landing page) for $119
Free Parking
Business Center
Airport Shuttle
Free Internet
Indoor or Outdoor Pool
Fitness Center
No Smoking Rooms/Facilities

==> best guess for this one woudl be the Doubletree Club Las Vegas Airport.  While this is perhaps more than you ideally would like to spend, the reviews are good, it's close to your needed location, and there are (as far as i can tell) no resort fees (which will save you at least $15-$30 vs. a hotel on-the-strip, where almost all of the properties charge a resort fee)

 

Alternatively you could stay in the north strip area (ie- near SLS, Circus Circus, Stratosphere, etc) or Downtown-Fremont St... but both of these will take you further from where you need to be (and you are more likely to encounter resort fees)

 

Does the property above work for your needs?
