After reading that the Wynn has a different check-in window for suites, I decided not to try the $20 check and instead simply asked if there were any upgrades available (without offering up money). The reservation agent told me she had a great room on the 58th floor with a wonderful view. It did and I didn't pay a dime... but as nice a view as it was, I wouldn't have wanted to pay for it. There was nothing special involved in the request and it was during a busy weekend so it never hurts to ask.

Very happy with the room we ended up with. A suite would have been nice but I'm not complaining. Panoramic rooms are about $50/night more than a basic resort room so we ended up about $80 ahead for our two night stay.
BTW, you get to choose your line at the Wynn so you might want to review the clerk profiles.

Waited in line which seemed like forever, walked up to a young male Clerk. Slipped the $20 under the license/CC and told him it was my girlfriend's bday and was hoping for an upgrade to the tower suites. He tucked in the 20 quickly into his pocket and said I'll find you something good.
Showed me an upgrade to the tower suites, free of charge! A nice tower suites key, with a private entrance, instant line passes to the buffet. Over $100 more per night! Well worth the $20.
Also on the 54th floor!

Upgraded to a Panoramic, which basically means same size room as standard but a better view of the strip. Any room at Wynn is amazing, even a standard room has ceiling to floor windows, a sitting area, a huge bathroon with a tv and bathtub. Overall Wynn will blow you away, it is not as large as the other casinos, but quality wise so much nicer, classier, non-tacky, taxi lines are short, tryst is gorgeous. Will not stay anywhere else in Vegas from now on.

Checked in on a busy Sunday around noon. After waiting in line for about 35 mins, I was greeted by a very professional young man. When he asked for my ID I handed him the sandwich and said: "We have a basic room, I was wondering if there were any complimentary upgrades available?" He saw the top of the $20 sticking out and immediately put it in his front jacket pocket while saying: "I'll see what I can do for you". Since it was early in the day, there we were limited on our options w/ people still checking out. Initially, he gave us a room on the 21st floor w/ a panaramic view of the golf course, but as he was finishing up w/ us he said that a better room became available and gave us a panaramic view room on the 39th floor in the corner. Very nice accomodations here, and for $129/night it's by far the best stay I've ever had in Vegas -- I've stayed at several hotels on the strip in the past. My future trips to Vegas will definitely include a stay at the Wynn... regardless of upgrade potential. As a side note, the panaramic rooms are very spacious and have a 32" plasma and a 20" LCD TV in the bathroom. If you're a poker player you can call downstairs and get your name on the list and monitor your status from your room on the television.

Clerk offered us a room on 30th floor with a view of the golf course. We could've waited for a strip view, but he said he wasn't sure if it would be available, as they had a large group booking in at present. If we waited 4 hrs until 5pm, he said he would see what could be done but couldn't make any guarantees - we settled for golf course view

checked in with the twenty between credit card and license and requested the "complimentary upgrade", to which the kind lady took the cards and looked to see what she could do. first we were assigned a 17th floor overlooking the golf course, but were upgraded to the 54th floor with panoramic view. she commented on "what a great rate" we received, and that the hotel was "sold out this weekend" because of the football and MTV VMAs. funny, also that she took the 20$ and placed it in clear view on the keyboard.

We were checking into a $139 casino rate resort room at 9:15 AM on a busy holiday morning. Handed the clerk the $20 with the cc and license and asked if there were any complementary upgrades. She thanked us and pocketed the $20. She asked if a top floor room that overlooked the strip was OK since that's what was available at that time. Of course we said yes. Being on the top floor was amusing. Every single time in the elevator, folks either asked how the view was or looked us over like we might be someone. Great hotel.

The hotel looked fairly busy, and according to their website all the standard resort rooms were already fully booked... we were standing in line, basically waiting for the first of 3 clerks. We had two reservations and decided to check in together. Once the clerk had our credit cards and ids, I asked him to see if he could upgrade us to anything "nicer" or "bigger". Told him that one of us had already been here before, while the other was to have his first Wynn experience. He typed and typed and initially said that there were no other rooms that were non-smoking and on the same floor. I asked him to double check, and he was nice enough to do so. After a couple of minutes he found us 2 rooms about 5 doors apart on the 56th floor of the hotel! They were panoramic view rooms that were going for $599/night!...

Just walked up to the desk, Told him I was wondering if they had any upgrades available. This was my first time at the Wynn. Handed him $20 in plain site. He took it and got a suite. Pretty easy, no hiding of anything, or round about way of going about it.

Had a casino rate ($139) reservation for 3 nights. Was afraid this guy was a manager, but handed him the $20 sandwich anyway. He actually seemed a bit surprised, and started to hand the money back, then seemed to realize what I was doing and set it on the desk while he looked for an upgrade. Chatted a bit, let him know the wife and I were here for anniversary trip; he offered me the upgrade ("normally an additional $50 a night") and said he was sure we'd be pleased. I agreed, and he pocketed the tip, shook my hand, and thanked me for "my generosity." Wife loved the room, worked out great!

Handed my ID and CC with $20 in the middle to clerk and asked for the "a great room on the highest floor available". Immediately she was on the phone asking the manager for various suites, but being a busy weekend, the manager was being very helpful. She could see on her screen a corner room on the 58th floor available, but the manager said that it had just been placed on hold for another guest extending their stay. She had no trouble puting me my choice of 3 available rooms on the 57th floor. These rooms are $50 more per night if booked directly for the better views. She kept the $20 behind my ID on her keyboard until she was able to confirm that I was being upgraded, and that I was satisfied with the upgrade. Once I said that "that's great, thanks for your help", she quickly put the $20 in her coat pocket.

sandwiched the 50 between cc and id proceeded to hand to clerk and she saw the 50 and gave it back. she assumed that I had put it there by accident..right.. anyhow. i asked if there were any suites available and she said sorry but it's a very busy weekend and they are all booked. she did offer a panaramic view at no charge. I still offered the 50 for her help.
on Monday I went to the tower suites front desk and got upgraded to a salone suite (upsell) for an additional 300/nt. beautiful room. well spent imo

I got in the line of an older-looking guy (50's), as I read here that guys are more likely to give upgrades. He saw my 20 between the credit card and drivers license and quickly put it in his pocket, and said "let's see what we can do for you today". It was the 7/7/07 weekend and he said he couldn't upgrade me to a suite, but he said he could get me a Panoramic View room on the 50th floor - however, it was a smoking-optional room, which I wasn't crazy about. He found another room which he called "upgraded" on the 23rd floor and that's what I ended up with. It turns out that "upgraded" and "panoramic" are the same thing and just mean that the room is closer to the elevators in the center of the curve, so you get a better view of the waterfall area right below (instead of from off to the side). That was the only difference between that and a regular Resort room. Bart said it was a $50 per night upgrade. While the view was nicer, had I known that it was all my $20 was going to get me, I probably would have passed.
