    What are your dates and what hotel are you looking at for £305 (Bally's or Harrah's?).

    As stated previously book it and use the hotels Best Rate Guarantee for a further 10% off.
  • looking to book Bally,s 15 Feb till 22 -- 7 nights. have read they don't
    always offer price guarantees with UK websites. Will have a go though

    Use a .com website for booking (I unsure how they would verify whether a website is US or not) unless they look at whois on the domain address?.

    Anyway ........

    On olotels.com for your dates it comes in at $476 ($420 + $56 taxes). Doing a quick convert that is £295.

    As I said above I am unsure how they would verify olotels.com is not an American website.

    I think your dates including the weekend after Valentine's day which is also a bank holiday weekend (President's Day) may be bumping rates up...it is worth trying the best rate guarantee...I thought that issues came where the 3rd party site was in a different currency to price match, not necessarily UK sites as such but not sure.
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    not yet stayed in Aria, but usually stay at the Vdara right next door and go into the Aria a lot, and would like to stay there one day. so as for the property itself, it has some really nice places to eat, the casino is nice and it has a free monorail so you can nip to Bellagio or Monte Carlo without any trouble. it's fairly centrally-placed too, so a good location.

    not stayed at the other 2, but Trump's location isn't the best and doesn't have a casino or shopping - though is a stone's throw from Fashion Mall

    have stayed at palazzo, rooms are great.

    City center doesnt appeal to me and the Trumps location and no casino let it down IMO

    Morning all :)
    I booked last night for our target budget of £700... Fly out May 22nd for 10 nights, booked us in the Excalibur, so i sure hope the $20 sandwich gets us into a nice room (and a king bed even, as booking with expedia got us 2 queens!), and hope to get the nicer rooms that i've seen on tripadvisor reports!!! :):)

    Our battle plan is a KLM flight from Bristol to Amsterdam....
    2 hours to check-in ready for the US Airways flight (10:50am)
    Noticed we gotta change terminals/plane in Philly, and then onto Vegas! :):):)
    When we get back, we land in Amsterdam at 08:40 , but our flight back to Bristol is at 16:30....
    So plan is to store suitcases in the luggage hold thing at the airport (read it was 9 euros per case), and then bus or train into the city to take a look around! :D:D
    Looking forward to it all !!! :D:D

    what was the name of the website you can buy discount food vouchers for in vegas ? i remember getting 1 for stripburger last time, but cant recall name!

    Hi congratulations on your booking :T Make sure to ask on here for discount codes before buying restaurant.com vouchers. You can save a bit when they have codes floating about-it all helps,lol.
