Looking for a decent hotel, but its over Memorial Day (at least the Sunday before). Tried bidding most of lower manhattan areas down to 3 star with no luck. Up to $135/nt. Is that unrealistic? I was able to bid 4* central park south in March for 3 nights at $120 (got Park Central, nice hotel!!).

 

Hotwire seems to not have much below $150.

 

Priceline Express Deals has a PRICELINE EXPRESS Deal of a 3* hotel for the week at $145/nt. Looks to be Holiday Inn Lower East Side?

 

Rating is 8.0, guest favorite, free internet, restaurant, business center, and fitness. Has it ever shown as having bed choice?

 

Should I just go for that? Wait a little bit more? I really don't want to do separate bids and break up the trip, moving hotels mid stay in order to get a better bid price.

It would be appreciated if you shared your previous win with the board as a NEW TOPIC so that others will know about, and can benefit from the information, when searching the topic titles on the board, in the Priceline and Hotwire Calendar of Wins, and Priceline Maps.

Also, please follow-up your previous Hotwire Orlando and Hotwire Las Vegas threads with whatever you ended up doing for each of those trips, then reply here and we'll have a look at your NYC stay above.

I didn't realize the Orlando trip was from so long ago, but in the future, please 'close' your threads with whatever you decide to do for the stay (even if you don't use PRICELINE or HOTWIRE, book direct, cancel the trip, etc) as it helps keep the board better organized and more useful for everyone.

For your upcoming trip, nobody can say if rates will come down, or move even higher, between now and your stay... but seasonally this is a peak time frame for NYC (vs. a March which is low season) so it stands to reason that this trip will likely cost you more; and $145 is actually a pretty good rate (imo) for a one week stay this time of year. This wouldn't be my first choice of zone or hotel, but it's certainly do-able at this price if your budget is not flexible and you're trying to keep this affordable.

If you want to be more centrally located PRICELINE EXPRESS has what i'm guessing to be the Jolly Hotel Madison Towers in the ESB zone for $145/nite (only showing Pets Allowed amenity), again not may first choice but it is well located and within the same budget.

If you're willing to increase your budget what looks like the Hotel Boutique at Grand Central is on PRICELINE EXPRESS for $165 OR the W New York for $170/nite, should either of these be of interest.

Let us know your thoughts and how you would like to proceed and we'll advise accordingly.

I am not sure what to do. Could you say why lower east side and the hotel would not be your first choice?

Budget is a factor. Location not so much as my daughter will be going back and forth to work on subway and not doing the tourist thing. Would it be possible to bid in that price range for better zone/higher star rating?

Oh and I am willing to bid Central Park South, Midtown West, Midtown East, Chelsea, Empire State, Times Square, Soho Tribeca 3* or more. Knowing I could take the 3* LES for $145

My comment regarding LES was because i would prefer to be more centrally located, but whether this is central or not for your daughter would depend upon what subway line she has to take to work.

If you want to try bidding for the zones above (which i'll point out don't include LES although you're using this zone to determine your maximum bid) you can bid as follows:
