Thanks for the tip. I re-bid on Priceline a few times; up to $85 and never got an accepted bid so we went with the Radisson for $87 off of lastminutetravel.com. Just what we needed-- a nice place to stay after a fun night downtown. Convenient, nice bar in the Firelake restaurant off the lobby to wind down in after the show. Thanks for all the information on this site. I will definitely be back in the future to use your links for PRICELINE and HOTWIRE just like I did this time. - Anne

Thanks for your response. I really would not like to have to bid more than $75. All of my research shows that a 4* hotel downtown can be had on a weekday for under that bid price. I am local and it is not necessary to stay downtown that night, but would be nice to stay there after a late event that evening. I may just be starting this process too late...! Lowest prices found online: The Hotel Minneapolis $207 on kayak.com $229.99 on marriott.com Radisson Plaza $238 on kayak.com $238 on radisson.com Westin $269 on kayak.com $299 on westin.com Thanks again!

I am trying to bid for a one-night stay in Downtown Minneapolis next Wednesday, November 2nd. Failed bids between $51 and $73 over the past couple days. Acceptable zone: Downtown Minneapolis Rating: 4 star Check-in: Wednesday, November 2 Check-out: Thursday, November 3 Many free re-bid zones Budget = Less than $100 total (including fees) I am wondering if there is something going on downtown next week as I have bid a wide range of $$ with no success... Any advice is appreciated! - Anne
