Hotwire Hotel: Help with September Vegas Trip

[BigDogBK]

My wife and I will be traveling to Vegas the first week of September for two nights only. 9/5 - 9/7. Our main purpose of the trip is to see Incubus play at the Hardrock, but would prefer to stay on the strip.

I have never used Priceline or Hotwire. We are looking for the best bargain, and don't really care where we stay as long as it has a clean room, and a nice pool.

Any suggestions?

We would like to spend between $75 - $125 per night. would spend more if the deal was there.

Thanks!

Welcome to BetterBidding!

For your first trip to Vegas i would certainly recommend you stay on the strip.

Based upon your criteria it depends upon what you consider to be "value"... you could book a place like the Imperial Palace which is 'alright' for $50/nite and rave about the $50 hotel room you got in Vegas (although their pool is extremely lacking), but i would sooner recommend you "do it right" and book the Mirage for $119/nite. They have a great pool area and it has a good strip location with plenty to see and do in the immediate area.

I wouldn't use priceline as you could easily end up at a place with a 'not so great pool area' (which you state is a criteria of yours) and a quick search of HOTWIRE reveals nothing substantially cheaper than i would not just book the Mirage.
