Priceline Hotel: 5* Las Vegas (Strip North) Venetian

[djohannw]

Started finalizing my trip to the westcoast in May and decided to splurge a little on the start of our vacation, so based on the recent winning bids I decided to shoot very low. For some weeks now I always got a counter-offer of $273 which changed to $226 about a week ago.

Yesterday I started bidding again and was now countered with $155 which signalled me that there must have been a new round of price cuts. Decided to now "pull the trigger", so I bid $139 and was accepted at the Venetian:

The Venetian

3355 Las Vegas Boulevard

Las Vegas, Nevada 89109

702-414-1000

Check-In Date: Sun, May 11, 2008 / After 03:00 PM

Check-Out Date: Wed, May 14, 2008 / 11:00 AM

Your Offer Price Per Room, Per Night: $139.00

Subtotal: $834.00

Taxes & Service Fees: $102.54

Total Charges*: $936.54

Bid for two rooms and was offered to extend my stay, yet the request for the preceeding night came back with a $266 counteroffer, so I assume the Saturday night would be ~$100 more than the weeknights I booked now.

I am heading there the same time 5/12-5/17 and have been bidding 5* N strip with no luck. My highest bid was $170 I am willing to go to about $180 but thats about it. I keep getting a counter offer of $240 but that is not that big of a discount on the room.
