So I'm off to Wynn this weekend with their 3rd night free promotion they recently offered. I just checked my confirmation and it says that it's a "USD 100 resort credit once per stay, per room"
Doesnt seem to mention anything about spa/salon. Have they changed it because that would be a fantastic deal if i could use it for Lunch/Dinners

Bellagio
Has something changed with the room offering at the Bellagio through FHR?
I noticed now when pricing up a stay that the next category up from a basic "Resort room" is now "strip view" (Spa tower?), while I'm pretty sure it's aways been a "fountain view".
I've always only booked a resort, and been upgraded without fail to a nice fountain view, but if this is now the case it seems the room to book now in order to get an upgrade to a fountain view, is a strip view.
Can someone confirm?

Somehow I never saw this at all - which is strange.
Everything I can see about The Wynn shows the existing $100 Spa credit and a 4th night free offer that ended in June.
Are you sure you have a Fine Hotels and Resorts rate, or is this some other promotion?

I tried a booking at a different hotel a few days ago, and the only room available was a large suite for over 5,000 euros, and that was the only room listed.

What I was pointing out is that I've never seen the Strip view rooms offered on the FHR booking site before, just Standard and then next up was always fountain view so just wondered how this effects upgrades.

It is definitely a FHR deal as that's what's on my email but it was in fact a promotion for a limited time.

The sale ended in June so this is water under the bridge.
