Boardwalk or Bourbon Street?
 

Any opinions as to which Las Vegas strip hotel I should choose? I'm on a $120 a night budget for Feb 14-18.

neither...esp the Boardwalk...you should be able to do better..check cheapovegas.com and click on the hotels...it also has a map..I'll ck some for you too..get some emailed to me for specials..

Thanks Help. Have looked at various sites incl cheapo but no joy. Also vegas.com and lasvegas.com come up with higher rates than 'advertised' when you try to book! Would appreciate any help.

You might consider another tactic. The problem is likely to be Saturday the 14th, in terms of high rates. If you don't mid changing hotels, you can definately stay at a nice place the rest of the time.

That time of year, many hotels should have great rates for Sunday through Thursday. (Bellagio had a $129 rate offer mid-week) Go with what you can get for Saturday. But, you might find a much better deal at say the Mirage, Monte Carlo, NYNY, and other mid-priced hotels starting Sunday night.

Sat night is a problem...San Remo is showing an average of $111 a night on Orbitz..and 112.50 a night on hotels.com----some are showing restrictions on Sat night or sold out...Valentine's Day a problem..sorry I didn't
think..Bourbon St is closer to more things..Rio -Alladin,etc. showed restrictions but reasonable other nights...maybe stay at less desirable place Sat and move..

That's it, the Valentines Day Massacre!
Think I'll go for 1 night at Motel6 on Trop then decamp to Harrahs. Thanks!
