Step 1
Search Las Vegas travel and tourism sites. Tourism is an important part of the Las Vegas economy, and is encouraged by the local government, as well private-business interest groups. Hotel-rate information can be found on many sites that provide details about both fixed and seasonal attractions. Learn about popular destinations while saving money on hotel accommodations. (See Resources.)

Step 2
Schedule your hotel stay around special events and holidays. Las Vegas hotels often host special performances and conventions. Visiting during these times can lead to increased room rates. Counter this by choosing weekday travel dates, which usually are booked at lower rates. Visiting Las Vegas during the summer months can also save you money on hotel rooms.

Step 3
Purchase your hotel room as part of a travel package. Bundle your hotel room with a rental car and airline ticket to take advantage of travel discounts. Companies such as Orbitz and Hotwire often offer generous savings on Las Vegas hotel rooms. Adjust your travel dates and times to find the best combination for your price range.

Step 4
Sacrifice prestige for hotel price. Try hotels that are farther away from the nightclub and casino action. You can often find lower rates and even less traffic congestion. Steer away from hotels that cater to celebrities and "big spenders." Big-name hotels such as the Bellagio will usually cost more than lesser-known hotels like the Sahara Hotel and Casino. Hotels located in southern Las Vegas are often cheaper than those in the northern region.

Step 5
Join a hotel or casino rewards program. Collect points to use for future hotel stays. Many casinos offer hotel privileges in exchange for your gambling dollars. Plan ahead when using this method, as the program rules may require you to book months in advance. National hotel chains also offer rewards programs.
