had to try it in a rush, so used your strategy above and just changed the amounts. I was able to get a room at the Intercontinental Monterey The Clement for $250 before taxes. Thanks again for your help :D

No such luck! Do you mind coming up with a strategy to try today that goes up to 275 before taxes and fees, but we would only book for one night, september 29th. Thanks for all your help!

That's what I figured. I'll give it a go and let you know what happens! :) We'll go up to 165 before taxes and fees. Thanks for your help!

I am looking for a 4* hotel in Monterey for September 28 - September 30. Our maximum budget is $150/night including taxes. Do you think it's possible to win a room with that pricing and so close to the date? Thanks for any insight you can provide!

Used your PRICELINE link and bid was accepted at $138 for the Hilton London Kensington... looks like its on the outer edge of the Notting Hill priceline map... not as close as I would like it to be, but looks like a nice hotel. Thanks for all your help!

Thanks for the info... I'll just keep trying 4 star for the heck of it until I reach $200 then will start with 3 stars since I have plenty of time... :) tried $120/$130 today, but was rejected.. will try again... can't stay more than 2 nights, so no go for the apartments, but thanks for all the advice!

Used your PRICELINE link and went up to $136 but was rejected. Will give it a go tomorrow. Thanks!

I'll go up to $150... can you please let me know how I should bid if that is my max? Thanks for all your help :)

I received the $30 counter offer when I bid $120...

Thanks, I tried at $100 and $110 with no luck - will continue and let you know how it goes.

Hi, I used your PRICELINE link and tried again today with no luck. I did get an offer to raise my price by $30 bucks, but that would bring it it to $150 so I just kept going with the above bids. I'll try again tomorrow. Thanks!

Thanks, I used your PRICELINE link but was rejected on all bids. Can you please revise to include Notting Hill? Thanks again!

Sorry about that, let's say $130/night. Thanks!

I am looking for a 4* or 5* hotel in London for September 9 - September 11, 2011. Our maximum budget is $150/night including taxes. Do you think it's possible to win a room in either of the first two zones with that pricing? If not, than our third choice would be the Notting Hill area. Thanks for any help you can provide! :) 1st zone choice: Westminster 2nd zone choice: Mayfair Soho 3rd zone choice: Notting Hill - Bayswater

Thanks for the info.. after researching a bit more that day, I realized the IBC conference was at the same time :) We did book a room at Hotel Central Park which is not as close as I would like it to be, but wanted to have something secured. I did bid PRICELINE the other day at $85 and $95, but was rejected - I'll try again with the strategy noted. If we went up in price to $200/night incl taxes (since that's how much Hotel Central Park is), should I just keep upping the bid each day until I reach the limit? Thanks again for your help!

Hello - This is my first post here :) I'm looking to book a 4* in Amsterdam for September 12-14 and would like to stay in the City Center and Museum Quarter zone. My budget is anywhere from $70-$100. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!
