I have been trying to book a room from 4/6- 4/10 in New Orleans for a week. Downtown, convention center and French quarter have all been chosen and the highest price I offered for a 4* hotel was 95, but still didn't get a deal. Also tried all star levels for 83, but no deal. Best PRICELINE EXPRESS deal shows about 120 for a 3.5 star hotel. I noticed there is a NCAA meeting going on that week. Should I go ahead buy the express deal or wait a little bit longer? I imagine the meeting people would probably book the 4* hotels, do you think the lower end hotels will have a price cut later on? PRICELINE has been sending me emails with express deals like 120 per night for a 4* hotel, but when I click the link, there won't be a good one as that. Have I missed the deal or they just don't actually have it? Thanks a lot for any suggestions.
