I work at a hotel front desk and you don’t need to hide it, just place it on the counter and if it’s possible we will most definitely upgrade you. If you trying to get a suite and are staying more than a couple days you most likely won’t get it because the suites are most likely taken. I got upgraded to the 2 king penthouse suite at the mirage hotel with a 50.00 tip for a comp room 🎉

[@gianniburgess2879]

I was thinking to give them like a 300 tip to get a Penthouse

[@jskippa2482]

I've did this at the Cosmopolitan in 2019 and it works, I looked for the guest services host a the front desk who liked friendliest when he asked for my I.D. to pull up my reservation i gave him $50 and told him i appreciate his hospitality and he said give me one second he upgraded me from a terrace studio to a wrap around terrace suite fountain view, a extreme upgrade if you stay at the cosmo then you know exactly what them rooms cost and how much I saved just by doing that also this was in July i was in the Chelsea Towerr on the 13th floor overlooking the pool parties.

[@breezydinero901]

My first trip to Vegas was in January & I stayed at the Signature & when I booked the reservation online, I put in the notes “First Time in Vegas” I booked the deluxe balcony suite with a strip view but got upgraded to the one bedroom suite with strip view for free! Moving to Vegas next month I’m so excited 🎉

[@TheVictorCruz]

My experience has been it works half the time. I also try and be friendly as well...I think that's the key! Excellent video as always.

[@danterose210]

Definitely have a to try this out bro! Keep up the great work no doubt and great info for sure!

[@kherbers02]

We stayed at PH last month. We had a basic room comped already. We checked in on a Monday checked out on Thursday. We tipped $40 and they upgraded us to a Jr. Suite for no additional cost plus we checked in at 9:30am and our room was ready by 10:00am and we had no early check in fee. Also, just to note, if you’re looking for an upgrade at no additional fee, I typically ask do you have any complimentary upgrades available and then tip.

[@chrisworden2774]

I've done the trick twice and was two for two. The first time was at the Luxor and got upgraded from a standard room to a Queen Corner, which was nice. The second time I did it was at the Vdara and I got upgraded from a Studio Parlor to a City Corner Suite on a high floor. That was wonderful.

[@jamespudd]

Hello TVP. Gotta try it on my next trip..THANKS.

[@BagsByCABYarnTravels]

On Point. As usual. Thank you, Tim! CAB😊

[@AC-ff1cn]

Did the “$50” tip twice at Bellagio for a fountain view room and always worked.

[@boom2datboy]

Got a Fountain View room a little while back by simply telling the young lady at the front desk that I was trying to make the special “for my grandma’s first time in Vegas”. Boom!!! Lol

[@BlackStallion85]

Man I've always wanted to try it but been scared that they'll escort me out of there with the quickness or the employee gets in trouble but after seeing this I am going to try it my next trip. Already have my trip booked so all is left for me to do is follow that last hidden gem you gave.

[@MikeU23]

Great breakdown. I’ve never tried this trick, I book whatever room I want to stay in.

[@colossalmindb.t.s.8755]

Definitely has worked the last 4 times I went to Vegas (Cosmopolitan, Palazzo, Venetian x2)

[@charleybarley914]

try this at shows with usher's etcet if it's not sold out. You might find yourself in the front row or VIP seating, the venue wants those filled before showtime anyway. And if it doesnt work you've just done something nice for somebody working in the service industry who could use it. You never know, u might run into them later and they have some comp tickets in their pocket and remember you.

[@dlmoore3883]

It definitely works!!

[@bigbadbyrnes]

Nice man!

[@als125poundweightlossjourney]

Educational and will try this. I like helping working people when I can. So a upgrade is not a guarantee but a bonus.

[@shawnmalone3980]

Did this in Reno recently at the GSR on a comped room, dude gave me a connector suite with its own private hallway, Money talks in Nevada.

[@tinacromatie2894]

Wow that's good to know I hear a lot of people talk about the $20 method that's good to know coming from someone that does Vegas as well as you do thanks for this video very interesting

[@tinacromatie2894]

Well knowing me I'm going to automatically book what I want but it's good to know about the $20 trick

[@rooseveltrobinson2686]

Definitely worked for me at the Cosmopolitan

[@lilgohan]

the reverb got me weak 😂😂

[@williamwalls3253]

Excellent 👍 Excellent 👍 Excellent 👌 👍

[@tonyda2656]

I will try in a few weeks. Thanks man for the "tip" on "tipping". 🤣

[@stevenlowe9807]

I feel like tipping culture now days is messed up. I always tip where I go, but over the years it seems that people don't appreciate tips anymore and just expect them. No respect when you tip, but they treat you like an asshole if you don't. What a shame...

[@williamwalls3253]

Thanks for telling me happy birthday 🎁🎁🎁🎁🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@caseellis4061]

I’ve tried it twice. Both times were UFC fight weekends. The MGM Grand guy was rude and wouldn’t do an upgrade. I tried at Cosmo, and booked a studio terrace. The hotel was nearly sold out so the lady could only upgrade me from the Chelsea tower on a lower floor to the Boulevard tower on the 70th floor. View was worth the $20

[@williamwalls3253]

One time me and my mother went to a Resort and She paid Regular Room Rate and We got upgraded to A Suite I love the rugular room

[@rah2x260]

Going for Halloween ween this going to try this at the vdara fo sho

[@offthebeatenpathphilippines]

I’ve worked 5star front desk clerk and…the $20 tip does happen, BUT usually I could do an upgrade easily and it’s usually already done prior to the party arrival so I tell ppl I gave them an upgrade but truth is, company already booked the upgrade hahaha. Easiest $20 made!

[@whomadethelist7222]

is getting upgrade comes with additional charge or if they upgrade u , it comes free with the tip

[@MrBmick79]

a hotel clerk told me this exact same hack on the low low a few weeks back

[@FinesseKid93]

I keep saying I’m going to try it every trip to Vegas but never do. I think I’m going to do it my next go to Vegas.

[@tinygirl7531]

I'm going for my bday in July. Should I try this? 🤔

[@jdotcom8055]

Worked 4 me

[@da4th821]

Only 20...I do 50-100. Resort fee waived, upgrade room early check in late checkout. Even got a bottle of champaign. But I may have to go down to 25 to see what that gets me.

[@DomSchiavoni]

TVP didn't mention but the length of your stay is def a factor. Many people are only staying for a couple nights, but If you are staying a whole week then sure drop that 50-100. Also depends what you are asking for. If the Strip View is only $15 more per night over standard view and you are in town for 2 nights then there is certainly no reason to drop 50 when you can just book it for +30 or go for the 20tip.

[@simonnecrooks7611]

Has anyone tried this at the flamingo recently? I hear it’s all/mostly kiosks now, but do they still have front desk people?

[@kathrynday-stewart9439]

Definitely will try this but what if your check in would be Wednesday night and check out is Sunday, would this still work?

[@TheVegasParadise]

Kathryn Day-Stewart yes

[@joeypooschke7914]

Does the flamingo still have people at the front desk check in??? To do this. I did it 7 years ago the last time I was in Vegas the $20 and it definitely worked. Thinking about going back in January 2024, after the F1 is long gone. I wanna do a 50$ this time when we go,

[@jeaneandorsey-ud9es]

We’re headed to Vegas in may, around EDC time. Is it worth a shot to book the vista room suite and tip 50 or so to land the step above?

[@TheVegasParadise]

Jeanean Dorsey never hurts to try

[@CaliDisneyDiva]

I was ready to try this tip at Flamingo back in December, but there were only kiosks to check in. No representative at the front desk

[@J_RodJr0712]

Should’ve bribed the kiosk 😂

[@DominicanKarina]

Well since I’m not a Diamond member I guess I’ll try the $20.00 tip then, I used to get it free but now I guess I’ll have to pay it 😭😭😭

[@23jewelsx]

My question would be, are yall booking directly with the hotel or can this work if you use a 3rd party booking site?

[@TheVegasParadise]

@23jewelsx doesn't matter how you book the room, all based on availability when you check in. I've been upgraded booking both ways

[@connieburton7213]

My casino host always gets me an upgrade before I get there… get to know your host and let him/her know when you are planning on coming to Vegas… I can’t believe all he is able to get me at no extra charge.

Hey! How do you get a casino host? Heading to vegas within the next few weeks here!

[@connieburton7213]

@@ashleychung4894 when you get to the casino go to the players club and get a players card. Use it every time you gamble at that casino and once you have enough points a casino host will contact you… the points add up fast. Best of luck.. have a great time!

I've done it a couple times and it never works for me.

Have you tried this at Virgin Hotel Vegas? Wonder which tower would be best to ask for?

[@TheVegasParadise]

Tanya Banks Anthony haven't tried it at Virgin, but I know that people have done it there and had success with an upgrade

[@tanyabanks2544]

Virgin Hotel vs Park MGM…which would you choose? I’m so conflicted!

[@leonphelps1901]

Does it work at Excalibur? My rooms are free (minus resort fees). If I tip 50 think I’d have a better chance?

[@TheVegasParadise]

Leon Phelps works at every hotel

[@kalanigrager3709]

You might get a fish sandwhich.

[@den_525]

I'm assuming you're more likely to get an upgrade if you're staying for 1-2 nights during the week vs 1-2 nights over a weekend vs 7-8 days stay?

We are going to the Strat mid September for a couple days. But she works at a sister hotel and will ask for a discount for that and so I doubt we can get a second discount or upgrade. We both work really hard and sure could use an affordable vacation though. Seattle just wasn’t affordable is why we going to her location not mine.

[@VicRogers]

"Wow, I've tried the $20 trick three times now! The first time was at Bally's, and guess what? They upgraded me from a standard 2-bed room to a Jr Suite! Score! 🎉 Then, I gave it a shot at Resorts World, and while they couldn't upgrade my room, they comped my resort fees and handed me a meal voucher worth around $50. Not too shabby, right? But let me tell you about my funny experience at Plaza. The front desk lady looked at me like I had lost my mind when I tried the trick there. She goes, "Oh, did you misplace this?" and tossed the $20 bill back at me! 🤣 She said she couldn't accept it because the cameras would see it, and she'd get in trouble. Hilarious! So, my score stands at 2-1, not bad at all. I'm planning to try it again when I visit the Golden Nugget. Though, I gotta be realistic since it's during Life is Beautiful festival. Fingers crossed, but I'm keeping my expectations low. 🤞" Keep dropping dope content bro! Love the channel!!! 😄🌟

Tip doesn't really work anymore in my experience.

from what i've seen you dont even need the $20
