Someone I know went to see Celine last time and they stayed at the Riviera and said it was nice, as well as inexpensive!
Walking distance to the Colosseum as well.
Might be one for consideration!

[Cheerfuljane]

Harrahs has put a lot of money into renovating the Imperial Palace recently so I don't think it will be bad.

I've stayed there twice and the rooms were great.  It is the best place to stay if you're on a very tight budget because it's directly across the strip from the Colosseum and you won't waist money on taxis because everything is withing walking distance.

For traveling around the strip at night from hotel to hotel or club or such, if you have a group of over 6 or so, limos are fairly cheap split by everyone, the last night we went from Paris to Aria to go to Haze and it was only like 6-9 bucks a person I think.  Much easier than multiple cabs and just as cheap.  And a MUCH cooler ride to roll up in than a yellow cab.  

I was thinking the same thing if we could get a group of us celine nuts together and do that, it would be great,,
On top of that we  would have our TWCT DVD and could ROCK THE place down the strip while singing celine songs. IF ANYONE IS interested, After seeing her.

As for the Pure after reading what she said,not to sure if we could do that, I would just like to go and have a drink with some of u afterwards.. or just do what I said above w/ the Limo.

Honestly, if you want a place where you can talk and actually be with the people you went with, Pure is not the place.  That being said, if you showed up when doors opened it might not be that bad but when I went it was insanity.  Truth be told I'm not even a big fan of it, though I would go if I just wanted to party it up, look hot and dance, but even dancing was really hard.   I should show you guys the pictures from my night there, it might give you an idea of how CLOSE you are to everyone no matter where you are.    For drinks with people there are far better lounges.  Pure is a true nightclub in every sense of the word, loud music, crowded, fun but not ideal for conversations.

As for the guest list, when it gets closer I'll do some more research.  I have a friend who is in the Nightclub industry, if people still want to go when the time comes, I'll check with my friend to see if she can point me in some directions for a better evening at Pure.

Just to keep you updated on the group booking:

Caesars has contacted me and said they need a few more days to get us quotes, because it is so far in the future.

Treasure Island has quoted us $83 + 12% tax per room.
That rate is onlt guaranteed if we pay in full 30 days before we arrive.

I have not asked IP for a quote yet, but I know it will be much lower than CP and TI.
Who is interested in staying with the group if it's at IP?
Bare in mind that it is directly across the street from the colosseum and it is currently being upgraded by Harrahs.

I think TI's rate is very reasonable! What is the standard of this place? And one room there is for how many people - 2? 3?

I'm actually interested in staying with the group in any of these 3 places, as long as many of us are there. I want to spend my time in Vegas with all of you  

[vroni]

I'd love to stay where the majority of you guys are going to stay and I think my friend as well can't wait, that's going to be sooo exciting! As for Pure, I definitely wanna go there!

[zoea2812]

I dont mind staying anywhere where other members of the group are. Friendly faces would always be welcome. The limo idea sounds brill, loving that and would love to go sight seeing. I am thinking of coming on the Monday to the Friday to make the most of the time in Vegas as its my first time there.

I really want to spend all of my time with my fellow Celine friends as that would just make the experience more memorable and magical, so I dont mind sharing a room.

Im not too bothered about going to Pure as nightclubs dont really appeal (as Im older than most of the group) and would much rather spend my money on Celine"stuff"

As long as there is a shower, bed and bar I dont mind where we stay, would prefer it if it is along the Strip as that would make travelling easier.

[Alex_Incognito]

I still say we should stay where the action is, Caesar's!

[SuperLove4Celine]

I'm a big fan of TI (Treasure Island).  I've always had amazing customer service, great rooms, great luck on the slots, and it's close to all the action.

I'm going to plan on staying at IP with my fiance...when going to Vegas for AND, I stayed there and you can't beat the price and location...just a short walk from Ceasars...it wasn't anything extra special, but it served it's purpose!

Hmm,

The Caesar's Palace Tower Deluxe & Premium bedrooms are looking quite comfy...

[nuts2you]

My friend booked a package and stayed at the flamingo, very clean and cheap,  the rooms had a jungle theme, they even got tix to a show free. So she said to stay there because it is cheap and clean.

[Alex_Incognito]

There's nothing wrong with having a group stay at Caesar's and one at the IP.  I know for sure that I want to stay at Caesar's.

That's what I've been working on.
I'm getting quotes for both anyway.
IP is definately a lot cheaper.
I know that some people would much prefer CP, which is totally understandable.

[Alex_Incognito]

You're doing a good job, Jane!  Let's talk on some messenger sometime.  You have Windows Live?

[ennostiel]

I agree Jane, you're doing a wonderful job!! Do you already know Caesars' quotes for us?

[Cheerfuljane]

Caesars has told me that they cannot give me a quote this far in advance, but that it will most likely be around $120 per room per night, provided we book at least 10 rooms.  That does not include the 12% tax.

Imperial Palace said that they also cannot give a quote now but that it should be about $40 per room per night for 10 rooms or more.

Treasure Island quoted $80 per room per night but we have to pay in full within 30 days of getting the quote.

So...  IP is definately going to be the cheapest.

All of the rooms are either 1 king size bed or 2 queen size bed depending on your request.

[Bralo20]

All for regular rooms?  Quite decent rates I think!

I will send a mail to the marketing department of the MGM group to see if they can give some decent rates to

[Cheerfuljane]

The CP quote was for a Classic Room
The IP quote was for a Deluxe Room.

I did get a quote from MGM as well.  It was $240 per room for 3 nights.  That's for a Grand Tower Room.
I got the same quote for Flamingo and Paris.
Once again, though, it's too far ahead of time.

They say that they can only give us exact prices in June.

[nuts2you]

You know I really don't care where as long as they have a refrig and a DVD PLAYER so that we can watch our love when this DVD come outs.(TCWT). and a Ipod dock. .

[Cheerfuljane]

Tracey:  You and I have the same priorities

[Alex_Incognito]

We should try to get a headcount of who DEFINATELY WILL stay where. Or at least an excellent guesstimate.
$120 for CP is not bad at all.  I wonder how much better we could do if we get more people to stay there.

[hazard211]

skip pure, Piranha Nightclub is the best place to go. just my opinion though

Yeah, we should - although it's hard to get an exact headcount, because I for example would love to stay where most of our group will be. And I have similar priorities to Jane and Tracey  

[Cheerfuljane]

Well, I have recieved a lot of emails from fans giving their dates and most of them do want to stay with the group.
I've been recieving a lot since I wrote the info in the French section.  And now the Dutch fans are joining too since Stijn wrote it in their section

We'll have a better estimate by June, which is when the hotels can give us the right quotes.

What occupancy are these rates for?

[Cheerfuljane]

4 maximum

[zoea2812]

I think because that it will be a long time before I can afford to go back to Vegas, then I would prefer to stay at Caesars but I dont really mind  if everyone else wants to stay at another place
