Priceline Hotel: 3* Vancouver (Airport YVR) Holiday Inn

[travisl]

I've got several weeks to keep trying, so I'm going slowly trying to get The Inn at Westminster Quay.

I started at $34, selecting the Coquitlam - Burnaby region, 3*. Declined.

I added the North Vancouver free rebid area, increased to $38. Declined.

I added the Langley free rebid area, increased to $42. Declined.

I dropped down to the free 2.5* level, increased to $43. Declined.

It looks like someone else got it for $45 a few weeks ago, so I'll try again in 24 hours, bumping the price a buck each time.

Good luck with your bid, but please keep in mind that you may get some other hotel than Inn at Westminster Quay. Just because there is only one 3* reported does not mean you will get that hotel for your bid. Would you be okay with any 3* or higher hotel in the Coquitlam-Burnaby zone?

[travisl]

Good point, and yeah, I'm really trying for anywhere outside of downtown (and its $15-$20 parking fees). I figure I'll either get The Inn at Westminster Quay, or I'll have a new hotel to add to this site's list. Either way, I'm happy. :)

No luck yet. Started today with Coquitlam-Burnaby, 3*, $43. Declined.

Added North Vancouver at $44. Declined.

Added Langley at $45. Declined.

Dropped down to 2.5* at $46. Declined.

going to keep trying later this week.

I'm avoiding the airport area for now, as my event's taking place in Burnaby. But I think if I get to $50 and still get declined, I'll consider looking over there. It looks like some folks have recently gotten the airport Holiday Inn in the low $40 range.

Still trying, still failing, because I'm such a cheapskate :)

Started today with Coquitlam-Burnaby 3* at $45. Declined.

Added North Vancouver at $47. Declined.

Added Langley at $48. Declined.

Dropped down to 2.5* at $49. Declined.

Added airport and dropped my price to the ridiculously low $33. Declined, of course.

Next time (note to self), I start at $35 and include the airport.

Got one, great price, although not the Quay. (Moderator: can you change the title of this thread to 3* Vancouver Holiday Inn Airport $43)

Started at Airport 4* $43. Failed.

Added Coquitlam-Burnaby, North Vancouver, and Langley 3.5* at $43. Failed.

Dropped down to 3* at $43. Got Holiday Inn Airport. I'll take the savings versus the $50+ Burnaby range in exchange for a bit longer drive. Thanks, thereuare, for the helpful site!
