If you don't want to stay downtown or want something a little nicer it's
still not hard to find a nice room under $30, if you are flexible. The best
rates are offered Sunday through Thursday nights, except for holiday weekends.
Additionally Las Vegas is very quiet in the weeks before Christmas and just
after the New Year, except for Super Bowl weekend and the big conventions like
Comdex. If you plan your trip with these dates in mind, and are flexible with
your travel plans, you can get an excellent rate on a strip or downtown hotel.
This hotel reservation service has dozens of rooms at excellent hotels under
$30. I have found many rooms here at good casinos listed as low as $19 a night,
midweek. You can find many midweek bargains here at places like:
Fitzgerald's,
the Four Queens,
Las Vegas
Club, the http://www.go-gamble.com/casinolvimperialpalace.html, and many
more. I have found rooms there online at this site for as low as $19.00 a night.
By the way, all these quotes are per room, NOT per person.
Some of the best casino room deals appear in the Los Angeles newspapers. If
you can't get a copy of one,
click here. Phil
Feldman performs a valuable service by posting the weekend ads from LA
newspapers and he updates this page EVERY WEEK. Isn't technology great? Recent
ads featured the following:
Sahara $24, and
Lady Luck $24.50.
Phil also lists deals in Laughlin. If you use this resource, be sure to tell the
reservation clerk you are quoting an ad from the Los Angeles newspaper. Also,
send Phil an email to let him know how much you appreciate his hard, and unpaid,
work.
If you are still striking out, and I find that hard to believe, try calling
the casinos directly.
Another ploy is to phone the casino and ask for the "internet special". You
might be suprised at the result.
Some final words of advice: plan ahead. Don't just arrive in Vegas on a
Saturday and expect to get a good rate, you might not even get a room as many
hotels and casinos will not even book a Saturday arrival. Make sure you can get
a room to coincide with your other travel arrangements. I will never forget the
elderly woman who emailed me that she and her disabled husband were arriving
very early Sunday morning (she was getting a really good airfare from those
online people that Captain Kirk promotes) but she couldn't get a room before
Sunday afternoon. She wanted to know if I could help. I checked the calendar and
it turned out that her cheap airfare landed her in Vegas at 1 AM Thanksgiving
Sunday, a very busy weekend and almost impossible to book.
Coupons are another great way to cut the cost of Las Vegas accommodation.
Casinos issue these coupons through various publications such as, their own
funbooks, and,
The American Casino Guide.
The Las Vegas Advisor is
one of the best sources for coupons. A one year subscription gets you coupons
worth hundreds of dollars. Subscribers to Casino Player are also rewarded with
some very valuable coupons. These coupons all have restrictions, remember, they
are trying to fill their rooms in the off times. They also have expiry dates so
check them carefully.
