Vegas In May

The hotel usually sends offers to people that have previously gambled there. Is this your first trip?

Also, when there are deals, people here usually post them.

Stay tuned.

Vegas In May

For travel in May, you will probably start to see deals popping up in March.

Without being rude if you%26#39;re trying to be economical then avoid Vegas at the weekend. A room that%26#39;s say $99 on Sunday-Thursday can easily be $249 on Friday and Saturday, more if it%26#39;s an especially busy weekend.

Also there%26#39;s a large convention beginning during your stay which pushes rates up. At the moment that looks like an expensive few days to visit. It also reduces the chances of there being good promotional rates nearer the time.

I%26#39;m presuming that you%26#39;re wanting to stay on the Strip rather than off-Strip or Downtown. The hotels that I%26#39;d recommend you look at are Flamingo, Barbary Coast, Monte Carlo, TI and Luxor. Without knowing your budget it%26#39;s hard to be more specific.

Hi Harry,

May seems to be a mixed month on the price front.

Is it your first trip to LV?

Suggest you deal with hotels directly(often TA advise) and keep checking to see if price comes down,if so call hotel and rebook at new figs.At least if you do it now you have a room!

In regards to which hotel...where do you fancy?Strip,downtown etc etc.If not decided do you homework on here and check out the reviews of hotels your considering.

Hubby and i have done downtown and strip(extremes too)...ie CC and Excal,then Mirage and TI.Friends have stayed IP and thought value for money and centre strip location good...but remember it%26#39;s horses for courses??

Have a fab one!We go again early May...yippee!!

Try getting on email lists for deals that might come up:

I first had checked Barbary Coast to get you into the middle of the strip at a good price and it was sold out. So I checked the convention calendar:

Probably a lot of the 45,000 are staying there.

Try the hotels Blagger suggested for now. Good idea to go to Vegas.com and get a list of all casinos, save them to your favorites list, then just start searching.

Are you renting a car, maybe planning on seeing the Grand Canyon, or Red Rock? If so we can suggest hotels off the strip.
