Where to stay in Vegas on$100 a night?

Making my first trip to Vegas and would like to stay at a reasonable location with good rooms and casino.





Where to stay in Vegas on$100 a night?


Need more info to help you. When are you going? If you want to stay on the strip it%26#39;ll cost you more than downtown. Do a mid week trip and avoid holidays %26amp; major conventions to keep costs down.



Where to stay in Vegas on$100 a night?


soo many options.





sometimes you will find the below under $100 a night, at least midweek IMHO they are all, clean, safe, reasonably situated hotels on strip.





Aladdin



Flamingo



Barbary Coast



Bally%26#39;s



Try



Mirage



TI



as well, to see if they have any specials on.





Luxor-further down the strip, but, not too far off.




You need to do the research yourself on this one as room rates constantly change. Try lasvegas.com or vegas.com




You should be able to stay at 90% of the strip hotels under $100 if you pick midweek, with no special events or conventions scheduled. It takes planning and simply hard work to find the right rates. I doubt you can get the Wynn, Bellagio or Venetian unless its being comped, but even the Mandalay is sending out some $89 rates. It would help to have a MGM and Total rewards players cards. You will not get weekend rates under $100.





Vegas is different than any other destination. You may find guests paying 10 different rates from $39 to $399 on the same night in the same hotel. The hotels do whatever it takes to fill the rooms by changing rates. Publicity says vegas hotels average 95% occupancy for a year. Most other places, 60% occupancy for a year is good for a hotel. The difference is the gambling, the shows, the restaurant income.




Sign up for email promotions for properties on the strip. In these emails you will get a calender and it will show you which dates the promo rates are available and also rates for the non-promo dates. If you don%26#39;t have a specific date in mind you can plan around the dates that the promo is available. If I find a property that I like, I keep the email and always check the link to the calender because the rates fluctuate and a regular basis, just like airlines. So check back once in a while. The problem is getting a hotel at a good rate while also getting good airfare at the same time, but they should correspond because the rates are usually based on occupancy.




Once you find a hotel that you like at the price you like- make the reservations directly with the hotel. Then check every day since the rates may change and you could see a lower rate. If that happens you can contact the hotel and they will give you the lower rate. If you find another hotel at a cheaper rate you can book the new hotel and cancel the old reservations as long as it is within the cancellation period (check). You can only do this if you deal directly with the hotel.




I agree many places to choose with your budget however i would not chose Circus Circus not that great and its far north on the strip,in no mans land.




Hook up with someone vulnerable and pocket the $100 :o)




Scan comparitive rates for the dates on Expedia, book direct with hotel. Do not even consider going on Fri or Sat, for many reasons.





Best value per dollar is MonteCarlo, Luxor,TI, Ballys, Harrahs, Flamingo. MGM also may throw out a good rate sometimes





Down a notch in quality, but still acceptable to many;



Imperial Palace, Excalibur, Hooters,Riviera, in that order (Good-casino parameter tosses out Barbary Coast)





also check rates at the superior hotels that may sometimes offer a good rate; Paris, Mirage, Aladdin, Mandalay Bay...sometimes go for $110-120, worth it




Depends on when you go. I would suggest mid week-





Bellagio, Wynn, Venetian, Caesars will all be more expensive than the $100.





Mandalay will be unlikely, but it is the best out of what is left. Mirage, Paris, MGM, and TI should be the first four you look for. Then I woul look at Palnet Hollywood/Aladdin, NYNY, Palms (If you want to stay off the strip), Hard Rock (Same as Palms), Then I would look into Flamingo based on it great location, or possibly Harrahs (Again for it location), and then I would look into Monte Carlo.
