I always thought around $400 or $500 for a SUITE at bellagio was about average.
IMHO, getting Bellagio to COMP a SUITE or even a casino rate on a SUITE of $129 would require some serious black action play.
Though... a REGULAR ROOM is a totally different story....
The casino rate for a room is $129 Sunday - Thursday and $199 Friday & Saturday. Those are not the casino rates for even the lowest suite, which is called a Salone suite (basically a junior suite, 750 square feet without a separate living room area). The good news is that with 500 suites (out of a total of 4000 rooms/suites), booking a regular room and getting a free upgrade is a very real possibility, especially on short stays of one or two nights. The hotel usually over-sells the rooms block and then uses the suites to compensate when the no-shows are lower than expected.
