thereuare Posted September 26, 2014 Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 I don't think you're budget will be an issue. If you're looking for the least expensive 4* or better for this stay you can try bidding as follows: When bidding 4* in the San Antonio area you have THIRTEEN re-bid zones. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding. Select 4* Riverwalk... Bid $100, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $105, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $110, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $115, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $120, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $123, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $125, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $128, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $130, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $133, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $135, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $138, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $140, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $143 Any questions feel free to ask. Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

enickle Posted September 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 Thanks! Is there anyway to narrow down hotels using this method or if I wanted a specific hotel would the Bidding.Helper tool be better? Link to comment
thereuare Posted September 26, 2014 Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 You can take a look at the Priceline Hotel List to see what hotels have been previously reported to the board in this zone, but take note of the comments at the top of the hotel list as the listed hotel should never be considered complete since new hotels can be added to the system at any time and other hotels can be upgraded/downgraded. If you're trying to have a guess as to what you may receive before your purchase then HOTWIRE or PRICELINE EXPRESS would be a better option since they each show you amenities and a little more information about the hotel which would enable you to take a guess as to what you may receive. However, the trade-off is that HOTWIRE and PRICELINE EXPRESS each usually cost a little more than a PRICELINE win.

enickle Posted September 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2014 I was able to secure the Hilton Palacio Del Rio for $120. I used the bidding method to secure the room. Thank you for the assistance! Link to comment
