PC Visa
Has anyone used a PC Visa at either of these hotels? Does it generate 5X1$ for spend, or just 1X$1?

This is a thread dedicated to the IC "The Palazzo" in Las Vegas. It was created by moving post out of the pre-opening thread. We have decided to create one thread for The Palazzo and one for the The Venetian.
There might be some post in this thread regarding both or the other property. I have not deleted this posts ouf of this thread for a better comparison.
And sorry for not doing this earlier, I just have completely forgotten the opening date
Thank you

RA minibar limited to $100 credit per stay ???
Just saw this promo for the palazzo/venetian. Its been around a while but the small print regarding benefits for RA, I have not seen mentioned before........

Royal Ambassador Benefits:
Please be aware that all Royal Ambassador member benefits apply at these InterContinental Alliance Resorts with the exception of:
...Mini Bar: As a Royal Ambassador member, you will receive a $100 credit toward mini-bar beverages per stay.
Has anyone seen this actually applied, my understanding from loads of reports on here is that they were honoring the free mini-bar in full. $100 per stay is a major limit if you are stay 4-5 nights (or 6 nights like I am later in the year).

Venetian/Palazzo, RA $100 mini-bar per stay credit
I just saw this term in a Venetian/Palazzo promo flyer that has been around for a while.

"Royal Ambassador Benefits:

It does not seem to be tied to a promotion.
There's been a few posts on here regarding these properties, but none reporting the limited mini-bar. Has anyone stayed long enough/emptied the mini-bar enough to know if they were implementing the $100 credit rule. I'm staying for 6 nights later in the year, which would work out at $18 a day credit.

Maybe its a new thing as I was told that all Mini bar including the snacks are free.
It is a wicked mini bar though, worth a good $400 so I am not suprised they are limiting it.

I stayed a month back and didn't really empty it out but did have the Moet, Belvedere and a few beers which is definately over the $100 and wasn't charged anything.

I was told when I checked in a few days ago that the minibar was unlimited, but that they were changing that shortly to a limit of $100 per stay.
Agree that's not very much for a stay of several days--the champers, I believe, runs $49 + tax.

Hmmm..thats dissapointing, we now have IC's formally adjusting the RA benefits. I understand that its an ALLIANCE hotel, but is it the thin end of the wedge, if they can do it, why can't any other IC also set a similar policy. Remember at this property, RAs pay for the "free newspaper" and internet, via the daily resort fee. Whats next, late check-out only extended to 2pm at some properties ?
When is a "free mini-bar at IC hotels for RA" not a free mini-bar, when its a palazzo/venetian. Its a poor advertisment for their invitational elite program at some of the top properties in the ICH group.

I'm trying to use a BOGO certificate for the Palazzo (or Venetian) for the weekend of Oct 14-16 and the site keeps showing that the rate for the BOGO certificate is unavailable for that weekend. I tried weekends before and after, and I get the same message.
There are plenty of rooms available at the hotel. Are there any options to being able to stay at Palazzo/Venetian on Oct 14-16 while using the BOGO certificate? I've already tried calling and they're unable to do it in their system.
