I forgot to say that the balconies at the IP are big enough to stand out in, but not wide enough to get a chair on. Nice for a bit of fresh air.

Right, going to Vegas 2-7 sept, anyone seen any good hotel deals for these dates, booked in to the excalibur at a good rate but was wondering if anyones seen anything better? Bear in mind my budget is around £300, so im not looking for the bellagio etc :cool:

Hey,
Looking to take the plunge and book Las Vegas for early Feb 2010 4th to 12th with 4night stays in 2 hotels. As part of the expedia package I'm getting the Signature for equiv of $150 a night. Considering it's Superbowl weekend should I jump at it?
I'm leaving the 2nd 4 nights until much closer the time as I expect to get a great deal on midweek thanks to this superb thread

You're going over Labor Day weekend - so that probably explains why rates for the Saturday and Sunday are higher than many other weekends on the various deals that are out there because the Monday is a bank holiday in the US...check the usual places to see if you can find something else that suits and it may be that you can get a last minute deal if occupancy rates are lower than expected.

Grand Canyon Tours

We did the Grand Celebration Tour with Papillon in April 2008 & really enjoyed it.

I have just checked & it cost us £298 all in - so that's £149pp - that's when you were getting $2 to the £.

Carrot Top

I just noticed that there's 20% off these tickets just now if you book 30 days in advance. Unfortunately I notcied this a day late for our trip - hopefully get something cheap over there!! The deal is available through Smartvegas & Luxor sites.

He's normally on at Tix4Tonight for 1/2 price...but go early as we were told he sells out fairly early in the day.
Oh, and don't forget the coupon for $2 off the service charge.

Davey I got the Stratosphere from the 30th to the 6th for £234 on hotels.com.

It's currently £255 for the days you wanted which is a bit more but there is a 10% off code you can get easily enough for hotels.com or go through Quidco (or both but it says you don't get the cashback if you use a voucher)

See you there if you take the plunge!

Well I was going to book the Peep Show at 50% off. Unfortunately it's through Ticketmaster and with all the fees added they ended up $65 each, 33% just in fees so I haven't bothered on principle.
