Sorry I forgot to post the hotel :) :)

Omni Mont-Royal, Montreal

7/23-7/26

2 rooms

Got it for 80$

Began bidding at $70. Used free rebids to bid 75, 78, then got it for 80.

Hi, we're planning to stay downtown Montreal, from 7/23~7/26 (3 nights/2 rooms).

We tried yesterday up to 73$ for a 4* and today up to 80$ for 4* and 3* with no luck

Hotwire gives 99$ for 4*, 82 for 3.5* and 63 for 3*.

Any good bidding advice??

Thanks a lot

Any idea about these hotels??

Downtown Montreal 23-26 July

4* 99$

restaurant, pool, fitness center, business center, spa services

3.5* 82$

Airport Shuttle, Restaurants, fitness center

3* 63$

Restaurant, pool, fitness center, business center, launry facilities

Suprisingly enough we tried up to 73$ for 4* yesterday and up to 80$ today for 4* and 3* and we didn't have any luck. Any bidding strategies for priceline are welcome!

Thanks a lot

It was not a huge difference, so I'm happy with the offer. Thanks for your help. I think that I'll need you again for a trip to San Francisci :)

I tried these bidding strategies for a 4* hotel preferably at at MTW and they didn't work...

Select 4* MTW and....

Bid $100, if rejected add re-bid zone #1 and

Bid $110, if rejected close browser and start over with a new screen and...

Select 4* MTW and re-bid zone #2 and...

Bid $120, if rejected add re-bid zone #1 (so now you're bidding MTW, rebid1, and rebid2) and...

Bid $130

IF THE ABOVE IS REJECTED start over at new screen and....

Select 4* and MTE and...

Bid $95, if rejected add MTW and...

Bid $105, if rejected add UM/CPS and...

Bid $115, if rejected add re-bid zone #1 and...

Bid $120, if rejected add re-bid zone #2 and...

Bid $130.

I increased my bidding and with the second strategy I got

Sofitel New York

Check In: July 16

Check Out : July 18

Offer Price:150$

Thanks for your help

Thanks for you prompt reply

Well, I prefer a MTW hotel at $130 than a MTE hotel at $100.

UM/CPS could be an option as well, but as I told you my first option is MTW.

I read another post here about re-bidding and I think that I get the idea.

Thanks

Hi,

I am heading up to New York in July. The dates are Friday 16th july for 2 nights. I am hoping not to pay more that $130 a night.

The area i would like to stay in is MTW, MTE is also an option

Do you think that I could get a 4* hotel?? I have stayed in Hilton New York before and I liked it, any good bidding advice to get this??

Well, any advice is appreciated since I've never used priceline before.

Thanks
