I am travelling to Las Vegas for the first time, and looking to identify this hotel from hotwire. 4.5 star west of strip. Aug. 10-11 (one night - two adults) $84.00 + tax = $98.21.

Amenities include:

resort

fitness centre

restaurant

high speed internet

tennis nearby

casino

pool

business centre

golf nearby

spa services

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Most likely it is the Red Rock Casino & Resort, a newer upscale casino hotel in NW Vegas. Be aware that this property may charge an additional $20/night resort fee. That said it is very well regarded, from a customer-service standpoint and ammenities standpoint.

You will need a car as it is not near the Strip and has limited transportation options (i.e. $40-50 cab ride to Strip) and not next to a cluster of restaurants/shopping (some are nearby but via car). One other possibility for the location is the J.W. Marriott which doesn't usually come up on Hotwire -- Red Rocks does especially for Sun-->Thurs nights.

If you haven't been to Vegas before, FYI that Strip West and Near Strip West are two totally different areas. NSW is the area just west of the Strip with 4-star properties including the Rio and Palms. I would also suggest looking at Harrah's hot Deals rates (there is a link through this website, I believe) as you may get close to or beat HOTWIRE rates. They can fluctuate quite a bit so check back every day -- right now pretty much in the $150/night range for most properties including Caesars.

Good luck.
