Extra people at the Wynn

[somapopper]

I promised my friends I'd ask this, as they don't really trust my opinion.

We're trying to put four people in a room at the Wynn that I'll be gettting at the poker rate. Will we have a problem if we don't register the two extra guests, which I assume would cost 50 a head.

And, while I have your attention:

How strict is the Wynn about the rate, i.e. I only play 4 hours one day, would they let it slide, or can I expect to have to pay the full rate for anything under six. Thanks.

You can fit lots of people in the room, they'll have no idea. I'm not sure how well they keep track about the hours played. We had so many people playing for the room that we played at least double the hours.

The desk has printed me two room keys as soon as they seen "poker" on the reservation, they have done this a few times, a couple times one key card.

The 6 hours per day is an average. Play them and do not take the chance, as I know they checked mine last time I was there, every time in fact.

I'm surprised and pleased to see that the general idea is that I could put 4 people in the room without a problem. Last time I was in Vegas I stayed at TI and they had bouncers at the elevator checking for room keys. I assumed this was to cut down on overbooking a room, but if 4 of us were going up to the room, would it be acceptable to just show one key in a spot like this?

Is the worst thing that could happen that they just make us pay for the extra 2 people if they find out?

I'm relieved to hear that six hours is averaged over your trip. I was concerned about missing it one day, but I'm sure I'll average over 6 during the duration of my stay (provided I don't blow all my money playing 20/40 mixed the first day).

Had this happen in a few hotels and as noted it is for safety. Generally only occurs at night, though I imagine there was a higher level of security at Bellagio after a certain incident.

This is easy. Book for two people, and get two keys. Hit the elevators in two groups of two people, each group with one key. There is NO way this will be a problem.
As noted above, the main reason they check is to prevent randoms from raping and pillaging, not to prevent you from overbooking a room.

the guys checking for keys aren't doing it to see if you have 3 people in a room instead of 2. they are there so that only people who are guests at the hotel get into the room area.

i suspect if you just said, "these guys are with me" you'll be cool.

I appreciate the guys at TI who checked for room-keys to keep any scary people out.


I also stayed at Gold Coast casino next to Rio which isn't nearly as nice a hotel...and even they checked for your key to get onto the elevator there (at least at night...don't think they did in the day).


Just seems like a standard and common-sense precaution.

It is completely not needed to go in two groups. As others have pointed out, it's for security. People are allowed to bring guests to their rooms.
