How to do this???
I have a reservation for 3 rooms on a bounceback rate w/ 2 buffet breakfast for 75$ per nts in LVH from 12/26-28.
LVH is running a special of 2for1 buffet, 25$ per person spa cert & 59$. But I know that the 2for1 buffet is only for 1 per stay and the max spa cert. is 2 per room.
Can I stay 1 day with the special LVH rate and the next day change to the bounceback?
How can I do this? Any body done this before?
Thanks!
Cindy

In the even that LVH forbids you from doing this, the worst case is for you to make seperate bookings and then check-out and check-in again. I am sure even this won't take too much time, assuming you want to stay in the same room
.Do let us know how it works out for you.

Agreed -- just do separate reservations back-to-back. I would bring it up upon arrival so that they can flag the 2nd reservation to be assigned to the same room. A worst case scenario is that they might ask you to change rooms for the different "rates" - if so (and I think that's only a remote possibility), I would expect them to cooperate with you on logistics.
A reminder that back-to-back reservations at the same property means one stay credit and one set of "airline miles" for double-dipping not two, so you might want to set your HHonors preference to Points + Points for that stay as you'd be entitled to the 50% extra points on the entire bill [for the two most expensive rooms] as staying back-to-back doesn't matter with that option.

This can be done, but it must be tricky. The two times I have done it, it was screwed up and I ended up locked out of my room temporarily. Be patient and friendly and all will be well eventually.
