Las Vegas hotels say thanks with cheap rates over Thanksgiving
I was in Las Vegas a few weeks ago on a Sunday and Monday and there were still plenty of people walking the Strip, a line at the new restaurant I was trying (BLT Burger) and the casino tables didn’t seem unduly quiet either. If I hadn’t known that gaming revenue was down, and that Vegas was feeling the downturn, I might not have noticed. But that was just two days. The fact is that hotel rates are dropping every time you open your e-mail inbox. Have you ever heard of the Bellagio giving away a free night?
Thanksgiving week deals:
Mandalay Bay: We were amazed last month when we saw THEhotel rates down to $140 per night. But they’ll be as low as $120 per night, pre-tax, during Thanksgiving week, including Thanksgiving night. Across the casino, rooms at Mandalay Bay are starting at $90 per night. Ask for promo code “PTHGV08-P2.” When: Nov. 23-29, 2008. Contact: Mandalay Bay, (877) 632-7800.
Bellagio: Stay two nights and get the third night free when you use promotion code “3N169C.” Rates start at $169 per night. The cheapest night will be credited at checkout when three consecutive nights are booked. When: For travel Nov. 16 through Jan. 17, based on availability. The cheapest weekend nights of the promotion I found were Nov. 28 through Dec. 1 and Dec. 18-21, 2008. Contact: Bellagio, (866) 453-7117.
Las Vegas Hilton: Looking for value? The Las Vegas Hilton has a Thanksgiving package that will please those who are thinking of this holiday with their stomachs first. Use promo code “PTHXPK8″ for rates that start at $70 per night and include $100 in “Dining Deals” coupons, two Thanksgiving Day buffets, two welcome cocktails and more discounts. When: Nov. 22 through Dec. 1, 2008. Contact: Las Vegas Hilton.
Treasure Island: Try out TI’s new remodeled rooms (pictured) for only $79 on Wednesday and Thursday. Friday night is only $129 but you’re out of luck if you were hoping to stay Saturday night; nothing is available. Contact: Treasure Island.
Palazzo Las Vegas: A quick hotel search on Vegas.com (then sorted by rating) showed me that rates at the Palazzo were far lower than at the Wynn, Venetian and Trump for Wednesday and Thursday of Thanksgiving week. The Palazzo was only $119 per night on Nov. 26-27, but jumped to $219 on Friday night. Contact: Vegas.com.

Great bargains for the ‘elegant’ hotels. Even Caesars will go down to $105 from Sun-Fri of Thanksgiving week.
There are even better bargains elsewhere at the lower scale hotels - the Flamingo will go to $53/night, Tropicana is under $47 and Bally’s under$60. Best rate? The Imperial Palace around $40 per night. Not a bad way to spend Thanksgiving if you are alone.

Rio Suites is having a room rate promotion at its web site featuring “2cent Tuesdays”, when staying at least 3 nights including a Tuesday. I’ve booked 3 nights Nov. 30 through Dec. 3 for a total of $141 including taxes, or less than $50/night.
