I want something on the strip that isn't Imperial Palace

Here are the best prices I have found so far:

MGM w/ Grand Tower Promo - $360 ($150, $150, $60)
Excalibur with View (View Room) - $373 ($151, $161, $61)
Luxor Pyramid Deluxe - $424 ($175, $185, $65)

Thanks

Have you found anything else that's cheaper? Buddies and I are actually going the same time you are. Everything seems to be really expensive on the strip (>$300).

I found a couple that are cheaper, Tropicana for $297 and Sahara for $314.

I work for Starwood so I made a reservation at Westin...$69 a night. I'd like to be more on the strip but I don't think I can pass up $69 a night. I might try to get the same deal at Aladdin (also Starwood owned).

I'm going to keep looking for deals, let me know if you find anything good, thanks.Is the Westin going to give you the Vegas experience? I do not know much about that property, but I never hear anyone talk about it as their property of choice in LV. That is a good rate for a weekend stay, however.

I would book the Tropicana for the price you state you found. Please let us know where and how you got that rate for your dates of travel.

The experience is out on the strip not in your hotel room.I should have been more clear: No, you are not and should not spend a lot of time in your room. What I was trying to say is that if the Westin in LV is just a cookie cutter property, what kind of experience is that? IMHO, there is something to be said about being able to take the elevator from your room down the the casino level at 6am, grab a coffee and play some games rather than have to venture off to another property first.

Yeup, I was thinking about the Westin too, since it was the cheapest I could find. But I think I will probably just book at the Tropicana, although I would prefer something in the middle of the strip.

I'v never stayed at Paris, I wish they had something under $400 for the three nights.

Westin is a better location than Tropicana (if you are interested in the heart of the strip), it is less than a 10 minute walk to Caesars/Bellagio (Center Strip) and I know the rooms are much nicer. True enough it isn't the "typical" Vegas mega hotel, but really you are only sleeping in the rooms, and even that is on a limited basis. I would choose Westin everytime over Trop or any of the North Strip/Downtown places. Can't go wrong @$69 a night over the weekend.

I'm looking at this weekend (16th and 17th) and I can't get anything other than Circus Circus for those 2 nights under $400. Am I doing something wrong?

Am I doing something wrong?You are trying to book THIS weekend, now? Weekends are always high. You are not going to get a low rate direct from the hotel. Try Priceline.

thanks for the helpWhat exactly have you found and where? See the first post in this thread, then update your request.

Yes, there is a convention in town: its called the weekend. I am sure there is a promo code in the LV Hotel Promo thread that can improve upon your $600 quote.

Harrahs hot deals link

Harrahs is about $400 here and not too far - for April 26-29 (for some reason I can't get the reponse box on here.)

Hoping to stay in the Flamingo for 2 days, but can't find any good deals. Balley's has great rooms, but not such a great casino. Planet Hollywood is cool too, but again would love to stay at the Flamingo. Any ideas? Have searched all the usual places.

I took advantage of the Best Rate Guarantee. I found some no-name websites I have never heard of who ended up being pennies cheaper than harrahs.com for my Caesars reservation, and faxed the required paperwork to them. The following day they replied saying that their "Hot Deal" rate of $140 was better than what I sent them - but I paid the regular room rate of $180. As a courtesy they reduced my Sunday reservation from $180 to $140! So now I'm paying just $380 for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at Caesars (also comes with a $50 spa credit) for a reservation only two weeks away! See you in Vegas!

I'm trying to impress someone and my budget for a dinner is about $120 or so for two people. I've only been to Vegas once so I'm not too familiar with the casinos etc. Any recommendations would be appreciated.


A couple of suggestions:

Take a taxi to the Rio and dine at the Voodoo Cafe on the 51st floor. After dinner you will be allowed to go upstairs to the Voodoo Lounge for free - have a drink, dance and/or enjoy fantastic views of Las Vegas at night.

RM Seafood @ Mandalay Bay. The place is pricey, but you can purchase a $25 restaurant.com certificate for $4-5 if you wait for a sale.

Moni Ami Gabi at Paris is casual French bistro well within your price limits. I would suggest dining on the patio with views the Bellagio fountains.

Take a taxi to Little Buddha @ the Rio for Pacific rim fare.

Border Grill @ Mandalay Bay which also participates in the restaurant.com program. Depending on the weather you may want to dine outside on the patio.Or you can go here: Casa Di Amore

FREE Limo (not a Town Car) pick up at your hotel AND they participate in restaurant.com You will easily be under your budget of $120 even with a few drinks each and tip (18% added automatically if you use restaurant.com).
