We would PREFER $200 a night including all fees but are not willing to go below 3* and would prefer 3.5*. However, With prices the way they are, does not look like we have any other options than to raise our budget. After pricing other hotels in NJ with train fare for five people both ways for four days, we would prefer to tack that money spent onto our hotel room budget and use the money there. So yes, right now we are considering express deals/hotwire secret deals hotels around $200 and I know that does not include taxes and fees. No guesses on the other hotels inquired about? The priceline midtown east and priceline Central Park south?

These are the properties I'm seeing now.... PRICELINE EXPRESS: Midtown east 3* $197 (215 for double bed suite) Guaranteed Amenities: Pets Allowed Free Internet Business Center Times Square 3* $193 (Says room assigned at check in ) under 'choose bed' - but I did search with five people and two rooms No amenities listed Central Park south 3* $183 ($214 for double private bath, hair dryer, ironing board) Guaranteed Amenities: Restaurant Business Center HOTWIRE- searched two rooms 4 adults 1 child Midtown central 3* $209 Smoke-free roomsBusiness centerInternet accessKitchenetteAccessible for hearing impairedAccessible path of travelIn-room accessibilityAccessible bathroomRoll-in shower Thank you for all your help

Thanks for the info. We are going to keep looking in the city until it gets closer, maybe may. And if we don't find anything suitable we will book something in jersey.

We are looking more at priceline express deals with bed choice available or Hotwire secret deals as we are 4 adults and 1 teenager. We will be booking two rooms. We are also exploring more areas to try to get the most for our budget-Times Square, Midtown west, east-...we would like to keep it close to $200. I would like your guesses for the following hotels: Hotwire Midtown east 4* $196 85% recommended Boutique hotel fitness center Restaurant(s) Business center Internet access Accessible for visually impaired Accessible for hearing impaired Accessible path of travel In-room accessibility Accessible bathroom Roll-in shower Last person booked OneUN Hotwire Times Square 3* $185 70% recommended Free Internet Smoke-free rooms Fitness center Restaurant(s) Self-service laundry Internet access Last person booked Edison Hotwire Midtown central 3* $185 Restaurant(s), Business center, Internet access Also- in Hotwire, if I am putting that I need 2 rooms for 4 adults and 1 teenager, and they show me bookings..... They will accommodate one of the rooms for the teen correct? I get a little weary when they don't have bed choice available. I know priceline only does double occupancy unless you have the bed choice. I would also like your suggestions on the following- *is it better to book ahead like we are trying to do now? Or try to wait until closer to our travel time? It seems the better deals are gotten by people booking a month or less before travel. * we are driving and will need to pay to park our car for the time we are in the city. It doesn't appear to save much by staying in NJ as some sites suggest, and taking the train everyday back and forth, but am I missing something? Would it save money to stay in jersey or elsewhere and take the train for 5 people twice a day for four days? Thanks in advance!

Hesitated on the 4* for $146 and missed out. Regretting it, seems like prices are climbing. I've been checking hotwire a lot more. Any ideas on what this may be- June 16-20 2015 stay used biddinghelper.com 3.5* $142 midtown central Pet friendly, boutique hotel, fitness center, restaurant, business center, self service laundry, internet access, spa services

Our bids have been rejected, but we're taking our time, and still trying. Also keeping an eye on the express deals through priceline. Can you help ID hotel : Used biddinghelper.com 4* $146/night Central Park South Rated 7.0 out of 10 (or higher) Pets Allowed Restaurant Business Center When I clicked on it, it also had a bed choice $146 per night Guest Room $168 per night 1 Bed + Sofabed - Suite $189 per night 1 Bedroom Suite - 1 Bed + Sofabed I am thinking the renaissance?? I think it's the only one I saw on your list that allowed pets. Thanks in advance, and I'll close the thread when we finally book something.

Goal is least expensive 3.5* or better. actually let's do 3* or better, and yes we can start at $175 in those areas. Thanks

Well I really love the CPS area (had friends who stayed CPS at salisbury hotel through priceline and said location was perfect) so I guess I'll just have to take my chances with the Hudson or 6, we don't plan on hanging out in the hotel so I guess it's not a big deal. CPS would be my first choice, but I would be willing to take your suggestions and try for MTW and TS.

Thanks. I didn't know about that sister site either. That's very helpful. Ok we could do $150-$175 for the budget. Any suggestions for avoiding the Hudson or 6 hotel?? :-) thanks!

Hi, first time priceline bidder, Visiting NY tue. June 16-sat. June 20. I'll be bidding on two rooms. Very keen on CPS area as we will be doing the Times Square/Broadway scene and visiting museum mile on the east side. We felt like CPS would be farely central. Also we want to walk as much as possible and avoid subways, so we felt upper east side would be out because it has the possibility of being farther away from Central Park. Been doing some research on possible hotels in CPS but don't know if it's legitimate. We really like the Wellington hotel, and park central. We do NOT want the Hudson. and sort of worried about the 6 hotel with the pod rooms, do no want a pod room. I noticed Wellington on Hot.wire only though....I don't even know which site would be better, PRICELINE or HOTWIRE, all of my family uses Priceline. I saw someone has booked park central for a stay in march for $107. Not sure what peak seasons are in NY. BUDGET- ideally as low as possible since we need two rooms, $107-$125/room. Any suggestions for bidding or guesses about hotels are sincerely appreciated. Thanks!
