2 Rooms, over holiday weekend plus a few days during the week. $40 tip got us upgraded from 10th and 15th floors to the 25th floor. However, because we checked in, in the middle of the holiday we were not moved until after our first night in the hotel. Much better view on the 25th floor obviously plus better upgrades in the room.
I will definitely try the Front Desk Tip every time I go.

Checked in at 11:00AM Saturday morning. Had the 20$ between the 2 cards, gave it to the front desk worker and before i could even say anything the money was in his pocket, typing away at his computer. He asked what upgrade i was looking for. We ended up on the 25th flood in a tower room deluxe with a jetted tub and a strip view (booked the lowest room we could). Would do again in a heart beat! Side note - Also received bottle of champagne

No Dice For SJDJ at Mirage...
|
|

Had success last year at TI so I had the $20 between ID and CC as usual. Clerk saw it and said there was nothing available before I could even hand it over (very late Saturday night check in, Sunday AM really, thanks Dollar Rent A Car for not having cars). Didn't cost us a thing, so a push really. Still got 21st floor facing the Venetian/Palazzo complex.

I just happened to run into this site a couple of days before our Vegas trip....I couldn't wait to try it. We checked in on Saturday and we were only staying one night and changing casinos on Sunday. The 20 bucks was in between out credit card and ID. The instant she saw the cash, she put it to the side and immediately began to type on her keyboard and make some calls. After several minutes, she told us we could be upgraded to a tower deluxe room on the private 24th and 25th floors. The room also had a killer view. She also threw in some passes to the Revolution club and was super sweet. We loved the service and the room....we will be doing this trick every time we go to Vegas!!!

I had reserved two deluxe (standard) strip view rooms, and decided to try the sandwich. I gave $40, figuring $20 per room. The front desk clerk, a blond late 20's woman, asked for my ID and credit card, and I slipped the $40 between the two. She took the sandwich and put the $40 on her keyboard. I asked if there were any complimentary upgrades available, and she said she was looking but then came back that the best that she could offer us was to put us on the 23rd floor (top floor for the standard rooms) in a renovated room (the Mirage is currently in the process of renovating all their rooms). She put the $40 in her pocket and gave us line passes for the Mirage restaurants and buffet.
I'm marking this as a success because she took the money and tried to do something for us, but frankly for $40 I would have hoped for more, such as an upgrade to Tower Deluxe rooms. Maybe because it was two rooms this was harder, but the rooms we got were the same as what we had reserved, just on a high floor. We never did use the line passes. Additionally, when we got to our rooms (three hours later), one of them had one king bed when we had reserved two queens, the front desk gave us a lot of trouble about switching rooms, and the new room didn't have a strip view.

I slipped the $20 in with CC and DL. The clerk immediately said "thank you" knowing what it was for, but I asked for a compimentary upgrade anyways. She smiled and said "of course" We got the tower deluxe room with the private elevator and newly renovated with a plasma TV and upgraded bathroom. $50 more per night than what I booked, plus they sent champagne too! Well worth the $20

Checked in with typical $20 between CC and DL, intially was in line with a younger clerk but she was having issues with a man trying to check in and there was a manager hovering over her so I guessed she was new and decided to find a more "seasoned" clerk which worked like a charm. Once she saw the money she slipped it quickly in her pocket before I could say a word and said "let me see what I can do". She upgraded us to a Deluxe Tower on the 25th flor which had a private elevator for the 24th & 25th floors only and was NICE. Not yet renovated as many other floors but it was none the less very nice. Great view of pool and stip, worked like a charm!

Booked a room for my brother in laws 40th B-day party over the phone. We had a good deal on a two bedroom tower suite($600/night) but when we arrived there were no T.S. available. We were told to come back later. When we did we were upgraded to a two bedroom Penthouse suite with a great strip view at no additional cost. This is the second time we have stayed at the Mirage and each time they have given us great rooms at no extra cost. In my book these guys are a class act. By the way, we are not high rollers but we don't mind paying for a nice room for a special trip. Just don't tell them.

checked in early, clerk took $20, set on top of keyboard and said "oh, thanks so much". I think the price difference was about $40-50 per night, and we were there four nights, so definitely worth the $20. The private elevator was the best part, only two floors used it.

Checked in around 2pm and handed ID and CC along with $20 folded and asked the clerk if she had any free upgrades. She set the $20 to the side of her computer and took a minute to review info. Then she said she could get me a 24th floor upgraded room with a pool view. Worked out really well. Stayed for 5 days so was well worth it.

Checked in to the Mirage at 6:07 P.M., was asked for my ID an a Drivers license with a $20.00 bill between the above mentioned items. Ashley the clerk accepted the $20, said thanks and I asked her if there were any complimentary upgrades. I told her that it was our aniversary and that we were just staying for one night. She said that she would check and then gave us the room #24-008. Ashley then explained the amenities that were in this room which had a jacuzzi tub with a marble tiled Floor. She then directed us to the Guest elavators, which were only used for the 24 & 25 Floors. There were other elavators for the A-Z Pent house rooms. Ashley is about 5' 2-4 inches tall and has black shoulder length hair. In the station tothe left of Ashleys station there were 3 ladies, one of which looked like a supervisor, but none of them were paying any attention to what was happening at Ashleys station. Could not obtain there names as they were talking with their backs to us. The room had a fully stocked mini bar, a cabinet with a 2 cloths closets, and a hiden TV for our use. While we were in the Casino someone turned down the bed and left 2 chocolates on the night stand. Checked out of the Mirage hotel at approximately 7:48 A.M., obtained our receipt and left for the Valet to obtain our vehicle. Had a Great time and were treated with friendliness and respect through out our stay at the Mirage.

We arrived at the Mirage around 9:00pm no line up at all.Handed my id with the 20.00 hidden and I asked about any upgrades and she said right away I
could have a room on the 25th floor larger bathroom ect. The real nice touch along with the turn down service and chocolates was a stem of orchids laying on our pillows. Will be staying at the Mirage again forsure. All of the staff are very friendly, compared to my last two stays at the Luxor.
