Priceline Hotel: Strategy Requested: 5* North/South LV Strip - Dec 30 & 31

[IslaChica]

Would I be wasting my time trying to make a Priceline bid for 5* accommodation on the Las Vegas strip for NYE? I would consider any 5* hotel other than the Trump. The hotels that appeal to me are currently offering an average nightly rate of $350 - $375 for two nights starting from Dec 30. Any recommended rate strategies would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks.

That's my problem! I do not want to establish an unrealistic maximum bid for a 5* such as the Venetian that currently offers an average daily rate of $466. So I am seeking guidance.

If you're not willing to accept the 5* Trump then i wouldn't use PRICELINE for this stay as there is no way to avoid it. I would suggest using HOTWIRE and purchasing a hotel with a casino icon... since the Trump does not have a casino, you can be assured that this won't be that property.

If you search HOTWIRE for your dates do any 5* hotels with a Casino icon appear? How much? Is this within your budget?
