I'd suggest shopping about to get the best deal. Ebookers, hotels.com, lastminute, late rooms, Expedia all got some good deals!

You'll have a great time and any of the 5star hotels in Vegas are good.

I suggest skyscanner.net which will search a majority of the other hotel sites

You will love the Bellagio, in my opinion, the best place to stay in Vegas. As mentioned above, try shopping around, but also check the Hotel's direct site and smartervegas.com.

Hotwire is your friend - you can usually work out which hotels they are without too much difficulty :-)

Used them 5 times this far, all 5 times, we were spot on with the hotel choice and saved well over 50% !

Don't forget to add the resort fees to your hotel costs. Most Las Vegas hotels charge this.

Ballys, Bills, Caesers, Cosmopoliton, Flamingo, Harrahs, Imperial Palace, Paris, Planet Hollywood and Planet Hollywood are strip hotels which don't.

priceline is another alternative.

And don't forget to look at the hotel's site too as sometimes they do have offers that beat the other sites.

If you use a site like hotwire you also tend to get allocated to the worst rooms as well and especially if the hotel is busy.

Hi

I use lowcostUSA.co.uk really good pricing includes resort fees. Just paid £414 for mirage for 5 nights inc ALL fees.

If you not been before place is fantastic, stayed at NYNY, MGM and Luxor. All really good, best (most fun)casino is NYNY.

Hope this helps

Got an Amex card?

Register here: https://enroll.amexnetwork.com/US/en/MGMTier1

Then book here: https://reservations.mgmmirage.com/book ... de=zampart

You don't need to register to use the booking link, which will give you an immediate 15% off all rates. But if you DO register your amex card first, Bellagio will give you $100 back on your bill if you spend $800 or more (including room charges, taxes, everything) during your stay :-)

It may well include taxes and any booking/credit card fees, but I *very* much doubt it includes resort fees ($25/day at Mirage) as the hotel is only able to take these directly, at the check-in desk. There's no mechanism for them charging them up-front as they're not due if you don't turn up, even on non-refundable, prepaid, bookings. So, you may have a shock when you get there of $125 :(

The only (typical) exception is if you've booked a suite - quite often those hotels which do demand resort fees at check-in will waive them for suite guests.

Even suite guests get charged the resort fee, there are some exceptions though.

Harrah's properties do not charge a resort fee.
If your room is comped there will be no resort fee.
