You want to head to Las Vegas and we all know that you can land some killer deals, but did you know that there are specials happening all the time?  If you’re not loyal to a hotel, I wanted to give you 5 tips that you can use, in order to find some killer Vegas hotel specials.

#1 Name your own price at Priceline: I love Priceline.  They have the coolest feature where you can name your own price.  What you’re going to do is tell them where you want to stay, what kind of star hotel room you want, and what you want to pay.  By doing this, I’ve been able to get rooms for $25!  You can start your name your own price here.

#2 Book with the hotel direct: If you don’t like the idea of booking your own room and naming your own price, that’s fine.  What you can do is use hotel searches like Priceline, but the key here is to make sure that you don’t book them there.  Find the hotel that you’re interested in and go to the hotel website direct.

#3 Why don’t you gamble? Hey, it’s Vegas, right?  What you can do is call up the hotel direct, or if you wish, you can show up the day of your vacation.  Ask them for their best deal possible and try to haggle.  Trust me, this works a lot more often than you think!

#4 Try deal sites like TravelZoo: TravelZoo is the best travel site in the world.  I can always go on there, find the best deals, and what’s going to work for me.  They do the dirty work, so I don’t have to.  Check out the Vegas section and see if something can work for you!

#5 Sign up for a card: All hotels on the strip have some sort of player’s card.  If you’re going to be loyal to a hotel, sign up for a card.  This is a great way for them to keep track of you.  What you’re going to want to do is make sure that you use it every time you gamble.  By doing so, you’re going to get exclusive offers in the mail.

Test out all of these tips and see how much you can save on your hotel.  Just do a little searching on the web and you should be able to find a hotel special that should work for you!
