That site tells you about the hotel and shows a pic also. Hope that helps Mocha.

Whoami - I got a suite, so my rates wouldn't be very helpful. The problem when I called is they do have higher rates for Friday and Saturday night. And they aren't sold out for Saturday night, they just wont do a Saturday check-in (as Sisalou said). So, I had to book my suite for a late arrival Friday. I figure I'll just hang out or something till y'all get there Saturday. Those of you checking in on Sunday shouldn't have any trouble. So, I have a one bedroom suite, and I believe I can request a double bed (instead of a king), so there will be an extra bed Saturday night, and the rest of you can sleep on the floor or couch or whatever. Of course, it won't be the same without Weinermr.

Did you like the looks of The Orleans? Or could you tell enough from the pic? 206 is ouch for me.

Aww sorry Landi. Rosie, still looking but I'm not making a definate for the 17th yet. But this site also has Ballys for $113.00 for the 18th - 22nd but on the other site it costs $59 so I'm still going to check around.

I won't know if I'm going for a while. (You're looking at a "last minuter" who decides to go to a Superbowl 30 hours before kickoff, lol.) It'll be May before I'm able to commit.

Pamy, the $113.00 is for the 18th which is Sunday.

Pamy, different sites list different prices for Bally's. The Bally's site seems to have the best pricing at $59 for Sun - Thurs.

Thx Kar. I also get many Bally's flyers with specials, the last one was just thru March, I will probably get one for summer in March, I am waiting for that to book. I might call Ballys and see if I book at one rate and find better rate could I change

Pamy - when I made my reservation, they told me I could cancel thru three days before, with a full refund. They did charge me already for the first night's stay in the suite. Hope that helps!

Has anyone tried to get group rates? I'm with Fanny and probably be more definate at the last minute, but I cant see me NOT going, esp since Bobbie says she'll room with me!! *g!!

I talked to the guy about group rates and he says they are pretty much the same as the internet site. $60 bucks a night. So my next move was to try to get them to comp the meeting room. Still waiting on Jeff to get the info back to me. But I did get my Vegas planner in the mail today but I haven't had time to go through it all. That's all I know right now.

Are you still looking at Sun the 18th being the "big meeting" day? I'm just curious. If the 59$ rooms are Sun-Th, with people checking in on Sun, could it be a bit of a hassle getting everyone together for a big meeting? Or will it be an evening affair?

Thanks granny, I appreciate the info, I'm sure if I had paid attention, I would've known that! Thanks

Who, I'll know more about time when we find out what time everyone is showing up. But I'm thinking a late afternoon, early evening. That's saying that people get there some time mid afternoon. But there is no set time yet.

That's also if we get the meeting room at Bally's for free and then just pay for the meal. I believe we need 25 to get the room for free and if not then Granny will find out about how much it will cost.
