Only trouble is looking at it is you're paying the whole lot up front so there is no scope to get any comps, I just checked your dates and it's actually more expensive to book through the site than it is to go direct with GN.
If a better deal comes up when you've booked direct you can cancel at no cost and book under the better rate or other hotel, whichever it may be.
Just something to bear in mind

Excellent info.
I stayed 26 nights in Imperial Pallace last year. Filght and hotel was £1500 which I considered good value.
After booking I read the reviews and nearly cancelled. However the rooms, though basic, are spotless and are cleaned and replenished every day. Yes the public areas are tatty but rooms are not. At least mine wasn't.
I Would stay there again as it is idealy located on the strip.

You're 100% right about there being so many ways to go that it can send you round the bend, that's primarily why I made this thread for KK and here.
That's why I did the donkey work for you before you booked and posted all the prices in the thread so you didn't see yourself off
You saved $30 when you booked it and if you're never gonna switch if something else pops up better then it's all gravy. For the few minutes it takes to compare though it's always worth doing as now it costs more through the 3rd party and you pay upfront.
Only 2 months to go thank fk as I need a holiday

Looking at booking for mid June - mid July...basically a month give or take a few days. Rang up the Venetian just now and got told can only book 21 days wtf? Anyway are there any deals atm? Seens Palms and Ballys for like just under 2k for over a month but are those decent places?
Stayed at the Rio last year and not again...

If you're staying for a month then you want to be moving about a bit imo, one hotel room for a month is insane and would send me round the bend. I normally do 2 hotels for 2 weeks and when I was there for 2 months did 5.
If you give me a budget I'll put together a couple packages for your tomorrow if you want, 2 hotels 2 weeks a piece or 3 hotels for 10days or something like that and see what you think.

Yuh, agree with that, two weeks in one hotel is plenty. If you're thinking Venetian, I'd go with Palazzo instead, as that's where all the tournaments are being held, same as in February. Also the rooms are slightly better than at the Venetian for the same price.
