Welcome to Betterbidding. :)

This would likely be TheHotel at Mandalay Bay.

Thank you.

I have looked on the Mandalay site ( Tripadvisor is showing no availability for my dates) and to book direct it comes to $111 per night.

Have I missed something?

Should it be cheaper to book direct $111, than through Hotwire $148 ?

Maybe a stupid question. But have you looked at TheHotel so you haven't looked at the Mandalay Bay Resort?

Yellowdog.

Thanks Yellowdog -not a stupid question at all THEhotel Mandalay comes to $155 per night! My mistake :)

After all that, it looks like we'll be booking the Bellagio . There's an internet offer on at the moment at around

Thanks for closing this thread with your results.

HOTWIRE is usually very good about honoring their Double the Difference Price Guarantee, but as i mentioned in your previous thread, i wasn't sure how they would handle not having a breakdown separating the room rate.

Hope you have better PRICELINE and HOTWIRE experiences in the future.
