Hotel bargins on Travelocity
 
Although I booked a number of flights and car rentals on Travelocity when the Internet was young, in recent years I haven't found real deals there and just checked occasionally to see what they were offering.

But in the past two weeks I found a couple of motel deals that I couldn't find elsewhere. One in Las Vegas that was less than half what I could find otherwise for the same hotel, and one in a small town in Kansas that knocked 12% off the chain's "best price on their website gurantee."

We should always check all websites! Thank you, Keith.

I usually use Priceline for Hotels and Cars, but recently used Travelocity for a hotel in Waikiki as it was cheaper than I could get on Priceline. I generally check Travelocity, Orbitz, Expedia and biddingfortravel before bidding on Priceline, so that I can get a good idea of what I should bid. However, in the last few weeks, I have not been able to get anything on Priceline.

What was the hotel in Vegas and what was the price? Planning my yearly Vegas trip and would be interested in your findings.

The Las Vegas Hilton, which wouldn't normally be my choice, but I am attending a convention next door.

$52/night. The same date, the lowest price on the Hotel's website was $139. I did have to pay for the room upfront to get that rate.
