I've not stayed in the standard City rooms, booked 10 nights in the Cosmo for August.

We'll be there for 2 nights 21st August.

When these guys\gals will be there

Poolside could be an eye opener

Stuie- I am also voting Cosmo but would then struggle to go to Luxor after, they are in a completely different league. I have stayed in a one bed terrace and a wraparound suite. I'm sure you'll be trying to blag one on check-in and it would be worth it, best room i've stayed in.

I am looking for 3 nights in May Mon-Wed but still can't afford Cosmo prices, I haven't had an offer from them recently and if i do get one it's never for comp nights. Is it worth emailing?

Misty Blue- Wow 10 nights at Cosmo... very nice!! Did you book a package or direct with hotel?

Blindman, you are there the week after us.

Neither. I booked flights through Virgin Atlantic as I got a good deal on Upper Class seats using my airmiles. Then I used Low Cost USA to book the accommodation. We're in a One Bedroom Terrace with fountain view but will see what they can do for us at check in regarding further upgrade.

Best one in a while that includes Vegas, 30% off and availability looked waaay better than in the September sale. We've just cancelled and rebooked - cost £30 but only £10 net because we got £20 back as the taxes are cheaper and we saved 5,000 miles

hubby found a great deal for UC for dates that don't quite suit us - for 2 tickets it was 200k miles + £600...that seemed quite good to me, but it was just slightly out of the dates we could go in October...currently looking at other options.

ditto...it was amazing. It was a ridiculous amount of space for 2 people, but it was so great...then when we went last trip with my in-laws, we had 2 rooms booked and they offered us an upgrade on one for (I think) $20 a night so of course we took it. I said 'what type of room is that?' and he said 'it's one of our wraparound terrace rooms' and I said '$20...for a WRAPAROUND?!' and my husband managed to contain his horror to just a roll of the eyes at me and my complete inability to keep what is in my head from coming straight out of my mouth.

Of course we let his parents have it, it was a low floor, which actually suited his mum as she's not keen on heights...and the Bellagio sign blocked a bit of the view from one angle, but full view of the fountains from another...they were so chuffed with it.
