Priceline Hotel: 5* Las Vegas Northeast 2/15- to 2/19 $177

[pointsmaniatic@]

Hi All,

 

Looking to get the Venetian Hotel from Feb 15 to Feb 19 for about or close to $150 per night. Doing a search for those dates in Priceline Express, only one option comes up in the Northeast Area:

 

$177

5* Hotel in Northeast 

Fitness Center

Swimming Pool

Casino

9+ Guest Rating

800 Verified Guest Reviews

>>> Looks like the Wynn when compared to the regular pricing on Priceline

 

Any tips for getting the Venetian?

Also, what would be a reasonable price per night for these dates, considering it is a holiday weekend?

 

Thank you!

Welcome to BetterBidding!

 

The cheapest i'm seeing the Venetian at the moment is $244/nite... and as much as i love the Venetian/Palazzo, i would sooner book the Wynn/Encore given the price difference (i have never stayed at the latter, but have been spending a bit of time at each over my last few Vegas trips and am really starting to like it there)

 

The other option i'm seeing if you wanted to be more in the Center Strip (confirm your dates on the landing pages after clicking the link provided below):

5* The Strip - Central West for $187
Restaurant
Indoor or Outdoor Pool
Casino
Fitness Center
No Smoking Rooms/Facilities
==> best guess here would be The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, Autograph Collection which would would of course also qualify for an extra 5% off using the BetterBidding discount in our Priceline Coupon page

 

Also, if SPLITTING YOUR PRICELINE BID is an option (again, always confirm your dates on the landing pages):

For 2/15-2/17:

5* The Strip - Northeast for $131
Business Center
Restaurant
Airport Shuttle
Indoor or Outdoor Pool
Casino
Fitness Center
No Smoking Rooms/Facilities
==> best guess here would be The Venetian

 

From there you could consider something else for 2/17-2/19 some of what i'm currently seeing below:

Encore At Wynn Las Vegas for $213/nite

Cosmopolitan for $227/nite

Are you only interested in the Venetian (and i assume also the Palazzo) or are you open to other 5 star strip properties?

Is there flexibility in your $150/nite budget?

 

 

[pointsmaniatic@]

Thank you for your response. I do not longer see the quoted $131 for the Venetian from 2/15 to 2/17.  Ideally, I would not want to split the reservation. There is a little room in the budget, but I wouldn't want it to go over $180 per night. I would also consider the Bellagio or Aria.

 

Any other thoughts on this?

[thereuare]

The $131/nite rate is no longer available... and i don't see the other properties you mentioned as possibilities within your budget for your dates either (i did check last nite for anything in other zones that was also close to your budget).

 

The issue is that for 2/17-2/19 there is a big jump in rates:

Venetian is $348/nite

Palazzo is $378/nite

Bellagio is $329/nite

Aria is $ 319/nite

 

Although rates are substantially less for 2/15-2/17, you have the difficulty of hoping that any hotel that offers a deal for the more expensive nites is also offering a good price for the less expensive nites... it's almost as if you need to be lucky enough to have two wins and you need each of those wins to be at the same property.  It can and does happen... but currently does not to seem possible for your dates.

 

You either have to hope for lower prices in the weeks ahead (although while you're waiting/hoping they decrease rates could move in the opposite direction and move even higher from here), increase your budget, SPLITTING YOUR PRICELINE BID, or be open to other properties.  For your complete stay i see the following within your $180 budget:

Trump at $123

Vdara at $151

Encore At Wynn Las Vegas at $170

The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, Autograph Collection at $178

(all of the above are before taxes/fees but does include the BetterBidding Priceline Coupon page discount)

So what did you book for this trip (and for how much)?

 

Please remember to follow-up your threads with your wins/decisions as you make them (even if you don't ultimately use PRICELINE / HOTWIRE, cancel the trip, book direct, etc) as this help keep the board better organized and more useful for everyone... as well as being a courtesy to anyone who took the time to help with your travel plans.
