katrina Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Sorry I think I posted this on the wrong section, so I copied it here..I would like to find a hotel stay that is 4 stars in the strip south, I'd love the NYNY but i know i can't guarantee it, I'd like to pay 100.00 or less, but it is memorial day weekend, any tips? Should I start at a low # like 75? Any of the 4 Stars that don't have pools/jacuzzi's and good amenities? Link to comment
katrina Posted March 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Through NYNY website they have a special going around 109/night...pretty good price, but I do want less if I can.. Link to comment
thereuare Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Please use this NYNY link (also found in our support page) if you go this route.If you still want to try bidding on PRICELINE, i assume you're comfortable with the Westin, which is slighthly off-strip but still located within PRICELINE's south strip zone? Are you not interested in the North Strip zone? Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
katrina Posted March 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 We really will stay anywhere on the strip, like to be south but if its a good deal and a NICE hotel w/ a good experience then we can stay north, what do you recommend? How should I start out my bidding? Link to comment
thereuare Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 ....its a good deal and a NICE hotel w/ a good experience...Personally i'd be fine with any of the 4* hotels in the North zone, but as you won't know the hotel you will be receiving until after your purchase, i can comment if you will consider it to be 'good' and 'NICE' or what your experience will be... but i personally find the 4* hotels in the North Strip more desirable than their counterparts in the South zone.Do you want to include the North zone in your bidding?

katrina Posted March 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Is it the treasure island the only 4*, i would not mind including it on my bid.I put the wrong dates in at the nyny website, i put 3/23 Link to comment
thereuare Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 I put the wrong dates in at the nyny website, i put 3/23I thougth $109 sounded very low for a long weekend in Vegas in May.Do you want to re-consider your maximum bid?Is it the treasure island the only 4*, i would not mind including it on my bid.See the comments at the top of the Priceline Hotel List Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
katrina Posted March 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 What do you think would be a good max bid for a 4*? I also need a hotel the night of the 25th but it doesn't have to be in the strip, i'll be attending a wedding west of the strip, but still in "vegas", so i would like something closer to there and cheaper for sure. Doesn't matter if its a 4, could be 3*+ Link to comment
thereuare Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 What is the best rate you're able to get thru conventional methods? Are you still looking at a $100 per nite budget? Are you willing to pay more for a higher rated hotel or are you looking for the least expensive 3* or better hotel for this stay?You originally were only focused on the South Strip zone, but now you state yo don't need to be there, but "closer to there and cheaper"... exactly which zones are you willing to accept?You mention that you "also need the nite of the 25th", so does this mean you're willing to SPLITTING YOUR PRICELINE BID?Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

katrina Posted March 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 I think we can go up to $150, but i know its memorial day weekend so I am affraid it will not let us in at that price even for a 4 *. I just want to stay at a nice place on the strip, not the circus circus, we can get hooters on there website i think it was around 120 or so, and so I just wanted to see about something better..Do you think its reasonable that we could get a good price for that friday/saturday in a 4-5* for under 150? I also saw a thread of you alls that was split bidding, I wonder if it would be worth it for a friday and saturday, both being high rate days, i dont know... I'm just not wanting to wait too long since i know they'll fill up for mem. day. Link to comment
thereuare Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Your stay is still 3 nites (5/23-5/26), correct?Is the Westin an acceptable property... it's in PRICELINE's Strip South zone but is slightly off the strip.

katrina Posted March 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 If we have to get westin, its acceptable, but wed like to be more center(*But of course I know we can't choose) Link to comment
