Sleep "on the cheap" in the stimulating destination of Las Vegas. A place which can leave you penniless, bring you riches, or just provide a great escape.
personalbudgeting.suite101.com/article.cfm/bed_bath_and_beyondOver 37 million visitors arrive yearly, in Las Vegas, to a city that has over 150,000 hotel rooms. Even with the vast number of available rooms, they can become scarce and expensive during various times.
How to Obtain Great Vegas Hotel Deals
- Before planning a budget trip to Vegas, use the convention calendar to see what is booked at the Las Vegas Convention Center, and how many attendees are expected. Plan your travel dates when the Convention center is the least busy.
- Don't travel during the holidays, when rooms are more expensive.
- Avoid booking a room on weekends, when occupancy rates are 92%. Rates hover near 86% during the midweek days.
- Plan to visit Vegas when the weather is not very good. Room rates are frequently lower during off-season dates, such as July and August, which are very hot months, and January and February, which are colder months.
- Find a room that is not on the main strip. For less costly rooms and gambling, check into staying on Fremont Street in downtown Las Vegas.
Additional Tips for an Inexpensive Trip to Sin City
- The average room rate per nightly stay is around $90, but there are numerous values which are lower than that. Package deals often include airfare, show tickets and the occasional car rental, and are great sources of savings.
- Many hotels will reward patrons for their loyalty through their points programs. After signing up for the plan, the patron accrues a certain number of points for each nightly stay, and are able to turn them in for a discounted or free room. Sign up on the hotel Website for their e-mail newsletters, which contain many specials, as well.
- Casinos frequently allow patrons to earn free rooms when they accrue enough points on their rewards program or Players Club cards. Members of the club are also sent upcoming hotel specials in the mail. Make sure to use the card each time you gamble, as the more you play, the more points you will receive.
