HI, i tried the bidding helper but the easy view does not show the 4 start hotel at La Cantera.  Fixed dates are 3/10-3/12  I am seeing $145/night for both days.

 

The bidding strategy did not work for us and was time consuming. The couple decided to book through a traditional booking site.

I got the The Wyndham Dallas Suites - Park Central through HOTWIRE at $90/night oct 25-27, 2013

September 22-Sept 23 2012

hello, trying to book a hotel for tomorrow to celebrate my bd. wohoo!
 which hotel would you guess is this 4* in la cantera san antonio? here are the amenities:

Complimentary

Free InternetFree parking

Amenities

Business centerFitness centerPool(s)ResortRestaurant(s)Smoke-free rooms

$29 resort fee

Thanks, then I will eliminate the downtown locations. I'll stick to the Galleria area. Are there any recommended areas on the east side?

Hello everyone, I need to go to Dallas this Friday through Sunday. I would like to pay no more than $60 a night for a hotel in downtown Dallas (or close but not too much to the west). I have no idea what areas are nice but I do know that I want to keep central. I don't want to pay for parking.I am trying to come up with a bidding strategy. What do you suggest? I would consider the Galleria area if hotels are cheaper.

It's for 1 person and I have bid for other cities in the past.

Just a short note to say that I booked the Hotel Indigo at Galleria for $57/night in the Galleria, Houston.

Note that when bidding 3.5* and lower, MTE has some 'known' hotels can be up to a 15 minute walk to the subway... is this acceptable?

no. I will leave mte off, for now. however, if the strategy fails, i will add mte as the couple comes from a big city and are familiar with having to walk long distances. i once won the barclay intercontinental and that was a nice option.

Also, did you want to try for a 3.5* first up to your limit OR is the goal the least expensive 3* or better for this trip?

since they are on a honeymoon i will first try for a 3.5* up to the limit (the limit is $250 including taxes). Then if that does not work, then the least expensive 3* or above. A 3* in a great area would be good.

HI, considering that the hotels seem to be expensive at this time of year, we are also including MTE.

HI,i need help on a bidding strategy for a couple (on honeymoon) in New York. Looking for 3* or better in great location. Willing to spend up to $220.00 a night

Looking for the best hotel for less than $220 a night and in a central location for honeymooners' first time in new york.

HI guys, tomorrow is my daughter's birthday and i will like to surprise her with a staycation in a 4* hotel in Austin. i would really love to get the W, and prefer NOT to have the ATT hotel and conference center. I don't know why it is considered downtown because it is not where we traditionally consider downtown.

Can you suggest a bidding strategy for one night starting tonight? If there isn't a way to eliminate the ATT hotel, i am fine with that too.

Thanks

Thanks. You were right. It was the Ramada Marina del Ray

Sure. July 20-22nd.

2 adults and 2 children

Hi, any guesses as to which hotel this is 2* $176/night for 2 adutls/2kids. Santa Monica-Venice-Marina del Rey area hotel. amenities: high-speed internet access, free parking, free breakfast.

$175 seems quite high for a 2*

Wow! Thanks those are excellent ideas! I will discuss with my friends and be back to purchase through your HOTWIRE link.

Thanks for your reply. To avoid problems we will search for 3 adults and 1 child (just to see if we are lucky in getting 3 separate beds or a larger room.) NOw I have another question:

We are driving to New Orleans, thus need parking for the car. I have been doing the math for the possible 4* hotels, and eventhough the hotels are quite inexpensive, the parking rate is outrageous. About 20/day to self park and 32/day for valet parking. Some hotels don't even have self parking. So, when you add everything, the price might end up being the same as in a regular hotel. So, my question is:

- Any suggestions on where to park the car inexpensibly? We are targeting hotels downtown or the French Quarter.

- Are there any hotwire hotels (perhaps *3) that offer free parking? I noticed that some 3* hotels in hotwire were at the same price as the 4* hotels. Perhaps the 3* have free parking?

Thanks

Thanks. The wierdest thing is that if i search by 2 adults and 2 children, i get the same price as 2 adults and 1 child ($83.00). but if it is 3 adults, then it is $110.00/night.

i wonder what is the discrepancy.

Thanks for your tips. I recommended the same exact things you suggested, after I read the mixed reviews online.

Hellow guys, i have two questions:

1) can you ID this 4* hotel in French quarter. it came up at $110.00 a night for 3 adults and $85 for 2 adults and 1 child. Amenities are:

Free Internet

Smoke Free Rooms

Fitness Center

Pool(s)

Restaurant(s)

Business Center

High-Speed Internet Access

2) I am looking for a room for 3 people, preferably 3 separate beds. Which gives me a better chance of getting 3 separate beds? Searching by 3 adults or 2 adults and 1 child. I did notice that if I search for 2 adults and 1 child i get a cheaper price.

Thanks

very excited about the win

SUCCESS!!!!

$135 At Affinia Manhattan
