Booked one room for 12/30 - 01/06 7 nights and got the price $72/night. The hotel is exactly where we want to be, and the reviews are good.

After checking out the Express Deal which had a 4* hotel in the Opera - Saint-Lazare Station zone for $87, I decided to try to bid for the hotel for a even lower price. First started with 4* in Opera - Saint Lazare for $70 rejected. Added Louver-Vandome-Concorde for $77, and was offered an instant deal for $87. So I bumped up the bid to $70 and added Gare du Nord - Canal St-Martin, which I won the bid for the Best Western Premier Opera Faubourg. Offer price: $70.00/night Number of rooms: 1 room Number of nights: 2 nights Room subtotal: $140.00 Taxes & fees: $24.86 Total charged today: $164.86 The hotel looks nice, and I have never stayed in Paris this cheaply before (considering the terrorist attack just two weeks ago, that's obviously understandable.)

I have stayed many times over the year at this hotel at various prices. So I am very please with the price, especially for this time of the year.

Room Price: $69.00 /room night Rooms: 1 Nights: 2 Room Subtotal: $138.00 Taxes & Fees: $29.04 Total Charged Today: $167.04 The hotel seems to have really good reviews online. I started out around $60 with four stars and went down to three stars. I knew I should be able to get something for around $70/night, because they were offering a PRICELINE EXPRESS Deal in Downtown for $81. I only chose the three zones of Downtown, Downtown-White House, and Capital Hill-Convention Center, since I have an appointment downtown on the 14th.

First time posting on the forum. Initially tried for Bloomsbury/Marble Arch, Chelsea/Knightbridge, Finsbury/Islington, Kensington/Earl's Court, Mayfair/Soho, Notting Hill/Bayswater for $60/night, and was rejected. Added The City/London Bridge for $66/night and was rejected. Finally added Regents Park/North London for $65/night and got it! It's a great hotel, stayed there 3 years ago for almost twice the price on Priceline. So very happy with the win.
