Free Room Nights at Select Vegas Properties


With the economy sputtering and Las Vegas tourism in decline, casinos are getting both creative and affordable in an effort to fill up their rooms. The vast majority of hotels are offering lower prices than usual this December and January, and some have even offered a free night’s stay if you book at least two nights minimum.


MGM Grand, Bellagio, the Rio, and Imperial Palace are four of the hotels that are offering a free room if you book at least two nights, though the latter two require that the free day be a Tuesday, and they technically charge $0.02 to fulfill and publicize their “Two-cent Tuesdays” promotion.


Other casinos feature a wide range of promotions that include golf outings, spa treatments, show tickets, and dinner reservations.


Mandalay Bay has an “Exotic Escape” promotion that lasts until Jan. 6, where guests get a guaranteed mid-week suite upgrade, two-for-one admission to the musical Mamma Mia, two-for-one to the House of Blues for either breakfast or lunch, as well as hotel credit for $99 a night.


Treasure Island has a “Winter Solstice Offer,” which gets you free admission to its night club and spa and salon. Rooms can be booked for as little as $79 on weekdays and $109 on select weekends.


Planet Hollywood gives special discounts to members of the armed forces, and low rates for everyone else — starting at $69 on weekdays and $119 on weekends


Some casinos, like MGM Grand, even cut off 30 percent with the use of a MasterCard.
