Using the PRICELINE link, I tried bidding again this afternoon. Monterey 4* $133 My Bid was accepted. Hyatt Regency Monterey Hotel And Spa.

Using the PRICELINE link, I tried bidding again this afternoon. Monterey 4* $120 + Seaside 4* $125 + Pacific Grove 4* $130 Still no luck. HOTWIRE has The Clement Monterey for $168 a night on their hot Rates. Was considering just booking that. Was surprised that my bid of $130 was not accepted after seeing the hot Rate of $168. Any suggestions on the next set of bids to try? Was thinking 135, 140, 145, then if I didn't get any, just booking the hot Rate. I have been checking the hot Rates every day and this is the first time the Clement has shown up. In the past, it has always been the Hyatt Regency at $198.

Using the PRICELINE link, I tried bidding again this afternoon. Monterey 3* $80 + Seaside 3* $90 + Pacific Grove 3* $100 Still no luck. I will continue to try every 4 or 5 days and update this thread until I get a room.

Using the PRICELINE link, I tried bidding again this afternoon. Monterey 3.5* $90 + Seaside 3.5* $100 + Pacific Grove 3.5* $110 Still no luck. I will continue to try every 4 or 5 days and update this thread until I get a room.

Using the PRICELINE link, I tried bidding again this morning. Monterey 4* $115 + Seaside 4* $120 + Pacific Grove 4* $125 Still no luck. I will continue to try every 4 or 5 days and update this thread until I get a room.

Using the PRICELINE link, I tried bidding again this afternoon. Monterey 4* $115 + Seaside 4* $120 + Pacific Grove 4* $125 Still no luck. Do you think it would be helpful to wait another couple of weeks and then try these bids again?

I assume the Saturday Check-In must be whats causing the higher prices. In looking at the historical bids on this board, Almost every 4* in Monterey has been booked for under $120. My backup is the Embassy Suites Seaside at $250 a night. I will go ahead and use the PRICELINE link here and try increasing my bid to 120-130 this afternoon and report back with the results.

I read my messages and followed the link provided to access PRICELINE through better bidding. I am needing to book a hotel in Monterey 8/27 - 8/29. Here are the bids I did today. None were accepted.

I have a back-up hotel already booked that I can cancel 24 hours in advance. Just wasn't sure if I should wait 6 weeks and then start trying again, or if my prices were just so low that they wouldn't likely be accepted at any time.
