Things are that bad that I've tried calling the playersclub hotline to sort out my online log in- and after about 20 attemps I can't get through to them- bloody voicemail BS.

Not sure if it's already been posted, but just in case:

Imperial Palace goes 'All Inclusive'

http://www.imperialpalace.com/MakeReservation.do?propCode=ILV&packageCode=IIAIS

Not the best hotel on the Strip, but it's in an ideal location and the offer may suit somebody.

Not the best hotel on the Strip, but it's in an ideal location and the offer may suit somebody.

The Imperial Palace All-Inclusive Package starts from $95/night for single occupancy.

• Accommodations for one
• Unlimited dining at the Emperor’s Buffet
• Unlimited dining at the Teahouse*
• Unlimited drinks at all casino and pool bars

Teahouse includes appetizer, entr!e & dessert.

I'm not sure about the food at the Teahouse as I'd never even heard of it before (assume it's a cafe/coffee shop sort of deal)? But from $95/night single occupancy (which implies for more than 1 it will cost more) seems a bit steep even including unlimited food as the buffet isn't well rated I don't think.

Special mention to Luci (:T )who posted the link for the Signature offer, can't wait to check into there on Sunday for three nights.

I'm back end of next week and hope I can offer more help to you all in return.

You are more than welcome. Glad you were able to use it.

We will be checking into the Signature on 5 May so I will be looking forward to your hotel review.

Have a great trip!

The food at the Teahouse is actually quite good and very reasonable. We have eaten there several times. Yes it is their 24 hour coffee shop.

Thanks Luci - will maybe check it out sometime.

I had a look at the inclusive deal and the one photome posted earlier...for a random 2 night stay for 2 people the inclusive deal was $270...the rate from travelzoo photome posted was $60...I just think the inclusive deal can't really be worth $210 more over 2 nights...I suppose maybe it is if you're a big eater or drinker and don't mind eating at the same two places all the time, but if it were me I'd pay $60 for the hotel and eat where we want (for less than $210 I'm sure).

I have to say when I saw this I thought what great value but then thinking about it most people say that the Emporohs buffet is inedible (my parents loved it) I think I agree its not for me. In any event the IP is not somwhere I would ever stay again
