Thanks for the guidence. W New York looks great and gets good reviews. I will consider this using the HOTWIRE link.
I'm also thinking about a 3.5* in Midtown Central for $113 a night. It has the following facilities listed:-
Boutique
Smoke Free
Fitness
Restaurant
Internet
Spa
Does this look like being the Dream Hotel ? If so, $113 seems a good price, only draw back could be the reviews saying the rooms are typical of a boutique hotel....i.e. very, very small...
MTE 4* from 26 Feb to 4 Mar 2 adults
Fitness
Restaurants
Business Centre
High Speed Internet
Spa
what property could this be ?
Also, do I need to add approx. 14% onto the $189.00 a night for taxes ?
Thanks.
Thanks very much. I've just gone round the loop twice, hitting my $130 max without any luck...not to worry, I'll likely give it another go tomorrow. Do you think i'm being unrealistic looking for a 4* in MTE in late Feb, early March ?
Thanks for your help thus far, much appreciated.
I've seen people getting the Grand Hyatt for $105 and $106 so I suppose I'm being tight and not willing to pay over the odds....however, these low prices are mid January so I should really expect to pay a bit more for late Feb, early March.
Let's say my max is $130 before tax - which i guess is approx. another 14%...
What do you recommend ?
After I've used up my 5 re-bids for the first time, do I then have to wait 24hrs before I go through it all again ?
Hi again, just about to launch a bid effort and wanted to double check something, hope you don't mind...
My ideal is to get a 4* in MTE so my strategy is:-
Bid $90 after selecting MTE and 4* hotels - if rejected...
Bid $95 after adding B into my requirements - if rejected...
Big $100 after adding UES into my requirements - if rejected...
Bid $105 after adding MSG into my requirements - if rejected...
Bid $110 after adding LIA into my requirements - if rejected...
Bid $115 after adding CA into my requirements making MTE, B, UES, MSG, LIA & CA all 'checked'
Does that sound about right ?
Hello. Yeah, think i've sussed the 5 "free bid" zones I could use; Chelsea, Brooklyn, Long Island, Madison Sq Garden and now Upper East Side.
My limit for this 6 night stay is $120.00 per night.
Thanks.
Thanks for the quick response !
No main reason I fancy MTE, it's really just that I've stayed in various places over the years; from Washingston Sq Hotel to Hudson up beside CP and found MTE the area I prefer - but yeah, I suppose any of the Midtown areas would be just as handy...got married in the Waldorf in 2005 so probably got a soft spot for that area...seems to be some great deals to be had at the Grand Hyatt ?
Hi all, new to the site but have read a lot of posts re strategy, re-bidding etc. Just looking for a bit advice/confirmation before I commit to a bid using your PRICELINE link please...
Looking for a 4* property in MTE, likely start my bids at 90$ then add re-bid areas that DON'T have 4* or above properties - that's correct guys eh ?
Can someone confirm what my re-bid areas are please ?
Thanks very much, much appreciated.
