Hi,

Just want to share my winning bid on 4* Beverly Hills - West Hollywood property - Hyatt Regency Century Plaza for $140/night!

Start bidding from $90 and finally bid accepted at $140.

Thanks!

At $130 I think you're probably pretty close.

Priceline usually beats Hotwire on rate and HW has a 4* in USW for $160 or a 4* in USE for $174.

I think $135 or $140 on PRICELINE might do it, if you're willing.

Also Hotels.com has the Prescott, a Priceline 4* in USW, for $149.

Rates aren't extremely high for your dates and I think you might get a lower rate, like $100-120ish, if you keep trying for a couple more weeks. No guarantees though. If you want to secure something now, either bid higher than $130, add a zone like Embarcadero, or try for 3.5* in USE/USW. (The 3.5* Handlery Hotel is only $139 for your dates, so you might get a 3.5* bid accepted on Priceline in the $80-100 range, guessing.)

Thanks for your reply!!

I'll probably keep on trying everyday and bid up to $140 - will report back with my winning bid!

Cheers,

Hi,

Just want to share my winning bid for 3.5* Downtown Washington Property - $230

Beacon Hotel

Price are extremely high during this period and most hotels are FULLY BOOKED!

Glad to be able to grab (at least) something close to Down Town!

Cheers,

MC

Are you bidding both the USE and USW zones or just one of these?

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

I used both USE and USW zone....

Hi,

I am looking to book a 4* property around Union Square and wondering what is the price like around June?

I tried bidding up to $130 - but still no luck!

I thought I could easily get the hotel for around $120 - clearly not. Would like to spend up to $140 max per night.

If anyone could shed some light, that would be much appreciated...

Hi,

Just want to share my winning bid on priceline. com for 06/08/2011 - 06/13/2011 (5 nights)

Start my bidding from $175 - $220 for TS, MTE, MTW, ESB - ALL REJECTED and decided to try again today:

Bid $230 Times Square 4* - rejected

Then counter offered $275 but decided to add more region

Bid $230 TS, MTE, MTW 4 * - Accepted (Omni Berkshire Place)

Very happy with the result! Thank you Better Bidding! I have been reading through your forums and tips for this!

The hotel price is very high during that week since Tony Awards is happening on Saturday 06/12/2011....
