We are going for our 5th anniversary. When we were there before we reserved a basic room and got an upgrade upon arrival for really cheap. So I am wondering if it is best to have a reservation in advance or if it is better just to arrive and see what kind of last minute deal you can get. We are staying Tuesday thru Friday check out on Saturday (May 1 for 4 nights). I want to stay at New York New York or one of the hotels in that area. I was just wondering if anyone had any experience being a walk-in in Vegas. Thanks for any insite.

Always – always – alwasy book your hotel room in LV as far in advance as possible, and book the room through the hotel. This way you can keep looking for a better rate and cancel the first reservation when/if you if find a better deal. If you’re gamblers the hotel can comp your room if you book through them, if you buy a package deal through someone else they can’t.
I do have a couple of promo codes that are good until May 31st.

These are the sites I check for LV room rateshttp://www.travelworm.comhttp://www.i4vegas.comhttp://www.tripres.comhttp://www.vegas.com
The first two usually always have better rates than anyone else.
now just incase you cant get one when you arrive
By all means, wait until you get there. On a Tuesday, there will be almost no one staying at the hotels and they will be anxious to get guests. Chances are that you will be able to get a suite at any of the major hotels on the Strip for less than $60 per night. I did that same thing with my wife and we got a 2 bedroom suite at the MGM Grand (corner room with view of the Strip) for $45.
Have fun.
reserve. last minute rates are rare. going during the week like that should get you some decent rates.
It would be wise to reserve one now. You never know what may be going on that week. My boyfriend and I considered traveling out there this week for spring break but had to rethink when we started looking a few months ago and all the decent hotels were booked (then I got a new job making it a nonissue anyway).
I’d make all my reservations well in advance. Then, every now and then I’d call the folks up and check to be sure that the reservations are still in effect.
Have fun!
If you are going to vegas you might want to scope out the hotels now, since just this weekend hotels on the strip went for 400+ a night because of what was going on there…Go to Hotel.com and they can assist you with the cheapest rate. My husband and I got the Aladin for 49.00 a night last month but couldn’t repeat that deal right now for anything…especially around holidays…ie memorial day….or spring break, graduations….its all about timing in Vegas! You may also try State line too, the hotels are OK but they are less expensive and its only a 30 min drive to the heart of vegas! you can get a room by calling 1-800-fun-stop and they can arrange for you to get a room in Primm, its kindof fun there and we stop there and shop at the indoor outlets…love the shops! and the gambling is preey good too! Have fun and Happy Anniversary!
If you want to stay at one of the more popular hotels, like NYNY, you’re better off reserving a room before you go. Otherwise, you’re going to get stuck with whatever bottom of the barrel room in the city.
i would get one now….save u heartache when u have to stay in a dump bc u didnt reserve
I would reserve it now, you don’t want to have to stay in a nasty hotel just because you waited to long. We tried to do the same thing before and it took us all day to find a hotel to stay in and it was really expensive!
Reserve now! In May, Vegas is generally teeming with bachelor/bachelorette parties from all over the country. Knowing that you won’t be exiled to the outskirts of town is probably preferrable to an upgrade.
We go there 2-3 times a year. And we find we get better deals if we book ahead of time. It’s always best just because you never know if there will be rooms available when you arrive.
That is normally if you want to stay in a specific hotel.
Now, if you are the adventurous type, then you can just show up and you may have to go to different hotels til you find one that has a room. Especially the calibur of New York New York. So if you want to be in a specific hotel, again book early.
Good luck and have fun.
We are moving there this summer, we love it so much.
I would NOT suggest a walk in anywhere. Go back to the same place and they will probably give you an upgrade again. Those places love repeat customers.
Heres the best advice COMING FROM A LOCAL…..reserve now and stay on top of it…..people have had there rooms double booked and have to stay at some crap shoot like CRICUS CIRCUS haha anway…..do it online as well they can take advantage of tourists
