Booking Rooms

Hi everyone,

When booking rooms, is it better to do it online per the casino%26#39;s website or calling in?

Also, what is the usual likely hood of getting an upgrade? For instances, if I were to book a South Tower room for $348 instead of a Deluxe for $418 and upon arrival asked for a room in the North tower, do you think I could get it for free or less than $70?

I will be in Vegas the first week of October and want to book a room now and then keep an eye on deals. Or would you suggest just wait a couple of more weeks?

Booking Rooms

It is always best to book directly with a hotel whether via its website or over the telephone. If there is a price right now that you find to be a decent one, then go ahead and book it. You are on the right track with your line of thinking. Once booked, keep checking prices and if you see a lower one, the contact the hotel and ask for a price adjustment. Either that or cancel the first booking and then do a new one at the lower rate. Besides checking the hotel website to see if prices are changed also check out sites like www.fatwallet.com and www.smartervegas.com. If there%26#39;s a good promo there, then contact the hotel and get the rate that goes with that promo code.

Booking Rooms

It is always best to book directly with the hotel then keep checking their website to see if the rates have gone down for your vacation time. If they have then you can call and have your rate reduced to the new lower rate.

As far as getting a North tower room by asking upon arrival is not guranteed because it would depend if there is one available or not. If you want the better room book it in the first place.

We always go direct-Some hotels do give you a price break for web bookings. If you find the rates go lower, by booking with hotel they will honor that laoer price if asked. A discounter booking, you get what you paid and can not change.

As to upgrades- All depends on how full the hotel is at the time. If it is a convention time, do not expect an upgrade. As to getting it free, again it is hit or miss.

I found its always cheaper to book online. And as the above poster stated keep checking back. I booked my room directly with the hotels website roughly 2 months prior to my trip. The same room is now going for $100.00 more. Also sign the guest books on the sites to recieve the hotels emails. they will usually send you deals that the general public isn%26#39;t privy too. And if you have already booked you can just call the hotel to get the new cheaper rate. Lastly another poster listed a website on here

www.smartvegas.com This website is fantastic !!!! They have all the latest rates/discounts with direct links to the hotel websites. They also have great deals on the shows too. Good luck and enjoy your trip.
