Priceline Hotel: Help - Las Vegas - Labor Day Weekend 5* (8/30/08 - 9/5/08)

[baaman]

Looking to book a 5* over Labor Day weekend in LV (Saturday check-in, Wednesday, check-out).

Would it be smarter to bid from Sunday to Wednesday and then try to back-fill the Saturday night portion of the stay (since Sunday through early week is generally a cheaper)? or just try the whole stay in one shot?

Any advice from knowledge or experience would be most appreciated.

Also, any realistic thoughts regarding pricing?

Thanks.

baaman,

you have nothing to loose, try the whole stay in one shot to start with. You have plenty of time, but labor day weekend will be busy in LV. also book a back-up for your stay that you're comfortable with. This will take the preassure out of bidding if getting rejected. You will find plenty of links at boards support page

If it don't work with bidding for the complete stay so just post back for further advice.

Regarding pricing: If you would like a realistic advice about bid amount so please post the rates for boards reported 5* hotels, each night separate. Average price for your stay will not cut it in LV. HOTWIRE will also give you a clue about prices if they currently got any 5* listed.

You have plenty of zones to bid in when going for 5*. Please make sure you're comfortable with re-bidding zones. If not, read this Priceline Re-Bidding Explained

Any questions before you start so just post.

Please start all bidding with this PRICELINE link

Good luck!
