More bad Vegas news.
The number of houses on the market jumped 31% in July (vs July 2024). It's the highest jump for any US metro area.

Hope you're right, but I have a feelin they won't. Something is happening that weekend that is causing the Sunday rate increase. Last time they did this was Wrestlemania weekend back in April!Originally Posted by Dan Druff
The system gives you only 5 nights comp.Was looking to finalize my trip for the end of this month and was pretty gob smacked by this rate gouging!
Previously, it was $50 for Saturday night stay (ok no issue there) and now it's $331 for Sunday night???
Keep in mind, Horseshoe is a VERY low end casino and I've stayed there for an entire week Comped last year and played/Lost more than I've ever played in all my Years going to Vegas (over $10,000 in one trip!)
I realize there are shows happening and John Mayer is playing Sunday night. But let's be real, he currently isn't a Huge draw that would cause such a price jump for a Sunday night.
I'm probably going to break up my trip and stay elsewhere Sunday and possibly Saturday if MGM or Palms will comp it.
But yea, this is just Gouging at it's finest folks!
That’s why this happened.
Book the most expensive nights with the comp (only 5), then call up and have them book the other as a separate reservation. They’ll be able to do it. If not ask for a supervisor.
John Mayer and the RISE Festival is all I see in terms of One Off shows that weekend.
Seems like they're dead set on that rate for Sunday, unless I arrive THAT Sunday and stay for 5 nights After, which defeats the purpose of using my time off!
That's not bad news for those of us looking to buy there.
Wait, I'm confused.Hope you're right, but I have a feelin they won't. Something is happening that weekend that is causing the Sunday rate increase. Last time they did this was Wrestlemania weekend back in April!

The rate is $331 on Sunday if it's the last night you stay, but it's cheaper if you are staying STARTING Sunday and remain 4 additional nights?
Now that I don't believe. Or if it's true, I've never seen it before, and there's probably a workaround.
Have you tried mock booking just Sunday and see what happens? Don't put it through, but tell me what happens if you try to stay Sunday only (to check out Monday).
Also, I would be wary of "Room Assigned Upon Arrival". That's giving them the authorization to assign you the worst room in the house. You are given literal last priority regarding room choice.
Among other problems, the rooms facing Flamingo Rd are VERY noisy. They can drop you in a low-floor room facing Flamingo, and good luck getting any sleep.
Oh, one more thing. Do you happen to know anyone who is Diamond that lives locally (or is not local but will be in Vegas when you arrive)? You can put him down as a second guest, check in with him, and they will waive your resort fees. The only time they won't is if he has a Caesars property room at the same time.
I also took a look for myself. The cost those nights is indeed high for everyone, but I have semi-good news:
It appears to just be Horseshoe which is jammed on that Sunday night.
Try booking at Harrah's and you will probably see it MUCH cheaper. In my opinion, Harrah's is only a small step down from Horseshoe, and is better than both LINQ and Flamingo.
Im sorry, but the video came up short and not going to help. Its too complicated and just doesnt show enough to entice me to now go there. The song is 1960-70s Frank Sinatra style and that's just not Las Vegas right now. Add in a boxer in a ring, fail.
Like I have said over and over- People are cheap, they want deals, freebies and a reason to drive across the 15 from So Cal to Clark County. Its the In N Out Burger service mode- Cheap, good service and consistent- that's what the visitors want. Not a brunette singing from the Rat Pack era.
Las Vegas Still Doesn't Get It: LVCVA Ad Generates Harsh Reaction: https://archive.ph/MpWx1
Did Las Vegas hire the Biden Administration to run their operations, because they seem to be using the exact same service model...
- Causes their own large scale operational problems through major gross incompetence, greed and blindly trying to manage things and cant see obvious operational failures.
- Everyone else knows what the REAL problems, infrastructure failures, repeated failure points, why they started and how to fix them. BUT executive management refuses to listen to the smart people and customer base who have the obvious real solutions.
- When they finally do roll out a "solution" to the issue (new Fabulous commercial), its totally off, wrong, a fail, totally misses the the issues and in no way fixed all the broken issues caused by retarded management in the first place.
On a serious note- The failures will go on for months up to years because they'll refuse to listen to the intelligent people and eventually concede that they failed and have no more options. Maybe even soon Nevada state and local governments will have to step in and correct the issues by threatening to yank their casino operating licenses.
Why why WHY did Las Vegas borrow the failed Biden Admin service model??
Its funny because its true.
