NH Hotels Offering a Free Holiday to the Person with the Best Dream

We like winning stuff, especially if the stuff is a free stay in a hotel someplace nice. And the peeps at NH Hotels - a chain we just listed in our favorite budget brands in Europe - want us, and you, to win exactly that.

The NH Hotels Dreams Contest is pretty easy to enter: just describe your dream holiday in 100 words or less. They even say it can be "fantastic or incredible" so fairytale trips to Mars are probably okay, too.

Viva Las Vegas Hotel Map Contest: It's the Perfect Christmas Gift

Go Straight to the Viva Las Vegas Hotel Map

Way back when we first introduced the Viva Las Vegas Hotel Map, we promised to unroll the second and third installments in a timely manner. See, we started off with the High Rollers like the Wynn, Caesars and The Venetian. Next we were going to bring forth the Breaking Even places like the Hard Rock and Paris. Then we would point you to the hotels that seem to be Crapping Out. Excalibur anyone?

We also wanted you to send us your wild Vegas stories and we would pick the lucky winner with the wildest story to win Rough Guides Las Vegas guide book pack.

Then life got in the way. Britney Spears showing off her lady friend, Thanksgiving, Honduras, Pam and Kid Rock divorcing, Amsterdam, Mexico hotel reviews, Art Basel, etc.

We extended the contest by a few weeks but in reality, that wasn't fair, especially since we still have like 20 hotels to add to our map.

So we're striking a deal. We promise to unveil our complete Viva Las Vegas Hotel Map featuring all three tiers--High Rollers, Breaking Even and Crapping Out--in the next couple of weeks and in exchange we give you until Jan. 12, 2007 to send us your Vegas hotel stories. Remember, these stories have to at least involve one of the Vegas hotels but doesn't have to be restricted to the ones that are on our map. Who knows? Maybe your story at Terrible's Casino is so damn good that we had to add that crappy hotel to our map...on the Crapping Out tier of course.

A couple examples of the good and bad Vegas hotel stories we have received thus far post jump.

What Happens In Vegas Can Be Set Free On The Internet

We will go ahead and extend this thing until December 15.  Why?  Well with the barrage of Britney upskirts hitting the web this week we figure we figure an extension is in order. Submit your most incredible tales of Vegas hotel debauchery and get free stuff--submitting with photos helps your chances.

Entries for our Viva Las Vegas Hotel Map Contest, where the person with the most amazingly true but shocking story (or the most amazingly cheesy or the most amazingly drunk but functioning story--we're open to all types) will receive a Rough Guides Las Vegas guide book pack. No not a travel back pack. A travel guide book pack about Las Vegas for both the seasoned and the infrequent visitor.

Even better, if you have the winning story, we will put it up in lights on the site for all of the travel world to see--and you may just become a pixel based Google maps map point. See dreams can come true, if you just tell us what happens in Vegas.

Email Us Your Entry

Entry Deadline is Friday December 15, 2006 at 6pm EST.  
Regular SFO*MEDIA contest rules apply.

HotelChatter Las Vegas Map Contest: Now With Free HBO Comedy Festival Tickets

[UPDATE: HBO Comedy Festival peeps have just kicked in tickets for two shows taking place in Vegas this week! Read details here.]

The promoters of The Comedy Festival have just kicked in:

· 2 Tickets to Bob Saget:  Friday, November 17 at The Palace, door time: 11:59pm, show time: 1:00am
· 2 Tickets to Maxim Real Men of Comedy: Saturday, November 18 at Augustus at time: 9:30pm

The only catch is we have to give them winners names by 2pm PST tomorrow. That means, anyone who enters our HotelChatter Las Vegas Map contest will be eligible to win these.  No, we aren't giving you airfare, nor hotel accommodations, so, essentially you have to be planning on being in Vegas this coming weekend, but hey, don't look a gift horse in the mouth.  Besides, seeing that the deadline is less than 24 hours away you know we will accept just about anything as a valid contest entry, so fire away.

Oh, and Las Vegas hotel employees and concierges, yes you are more than welcome to participate.  Think about what a hero you would be to your laugh seeking guests if you snagged a couple tix to one of these shows.

Thanks Katherine!
