Most of us know that using Priceline book a room for three in NY is risky. What I would like to know is how risky is this if bidding a 4* hotel. Are there many 4* hotels were this might present a problem?
Thanks

Are the so called benefits worth the little extra hassle...any answers welcome as I would like to know personally? I'm not quite sure if anyone knows for sure if there are significant benefits of PL US over PL UK. (apart from the add a night feature...maybe others will add to this). From a financial point of view are there really any benefits? I guess it would be hard to establish b/c of varying inventory/ prices and exchange rates.
Other people have other reasons for registering on multiple PL's but If its solely for getting a good price : give PL UK a bash. My experience is that it doesn't vary much from the winning prices from PL.com. As thereuare put in one previous post he would not take the extra risk (albeit very small) just to save $4 ...or something similar :) .
Was your maximum budget before or after tax and fees? If before tax you should be fine for a 4* I think if after tax and fees you would probably be ok too but obviously that depends on how busy the hotels are then. The experts would probably advice you better on this.
Good Luck with your bid

Thank you
I have gathered that it is risky. I'm about to bid on behalf of a friend and companion, but I have been told there might be a 3rd person. I guess I'll Leave it up to them to decide or they might wait till they are surer about the numbers.
