cool place to find suite ideas. but when i tried too book it said we would get back to you withing 48hours. then the next day they said it was sold out. would be cool if it was instant booking. but i ended up just calling the hotels directly after i browsed thier selctions.

@nicholas_shane Hi Nicholas, a little more than 70% of our rooms (average, by destination) are available for instant booking. Some portion of the top end suites (or just suites at hotels with more restrictive policies) do require us to provide pricing and availability asynchronously, as you've seen :) If you prefer to only see instantly bookable suites, you can check the "Instant Book Only" checkbox in the filters panel (you can open this by clicking "Show Filters" in the header, after you've made a search).

I spend an inordinate amount of time in Vegas (for work, honestly!), so this is something I was really excited to see. However, I feel the prices aren't really any better than from the hotel directly, as long as you're a member of the various loyalty programs. That's a problem because you get a load of added benefits for booking with the hotel groups directly. I feel it needs to be better value.

@rafiqmaniar Thanks for the feedback. Our typical customer isn't a member of those programs because they aren't going to Vegas often enough to have a preferred hotel and rack up points. So getting the same price as insiders is actually a great deal.

@killion Sure, makes sense. There's other cities I'll be able to use it hopefully.

Decent UX, needs more inventory, cover photo should be a slider... I remember a similar concept from A Small World - but this does seem like a useful niche.

This is awesome! What inspired you guys to take this on?

@justinboogaard Thanks Justin! We actually started out trying to help groups book travel with a collaborative website. When customers came to us asking why they can't book two, three, or four bedroom suites online we started partnering directly with hotels to make them available. Things took off from there.

@killion Reminds me of college and how when we went to Vegas we'd fit 40 friends into a master suite. We'd sleep in the bathtub, but it only cost $40 a night!

@itsshashank Hi! To quote my co-founder, from above: "One thing to note is that our site does require setting up a free account before you see pricing. In order to get discounts from our hotel partners, that is a part of most contracts we sign." Hope this helps!

@voxdolo @itsshashank if that's the case, my advice would be to erect a better login wall than just the modal-window you have now. If I delete "div class="modal sign-up-modal" pricing is fully visible, both on overview and detail pages.

@danielkegel @itsshashank it's absolutely not a full deterrent, nor do we want it to be. That sign-up modal just puts us in contractual compliance 😉.
