Followed all the bidding strategies for 4* and went up to $180 dollars. No acceptances of bids. :(

My goal is the best level of hotel I can get for $170 within either USE or Soma. 4* would be great, but don't know if that's available for $175. Thanks

About $150 - 175. Otherwise it seems to make sense to take a PRICELINE EXPRESS for a 3.5 stars in Embaracadero for 138$ night, or Union Square West - Nob Hill for $161. As there is a coupon for 10 percent discount. suggestions welcome. Basically want to stay nearish market street and not in a sketchy area.

Started with Union Square E 4* $120 Civic 125 Japan 130 Marina 135 Richmond 140 South San Fran 145 Soma 150 Added 3.5* 155 No dice Suggestions? Goal is 3.5 or 4* in either Union square East or Soma

I was hoping to get something for $175 or less.

Not having much luck on getting a 4*. started with USW at 110 added USE at 120 Added Richmond 130 Added SFO N 140 Added Japan 150 Added Fishermans at 165 Added South SF at 175 No luck Suggestions? Help appreciated.

This reservation was made from your PRICELINE link

Started with 80$ and 4* Faneuil Hall. Added South Boston, N Cambridge, Feinway, Medford -- incrementally adding 5$ each time

you must be right about the two night minimum. have bid up to 105$ and not gotten a bite. The hotwire has a mix of hotels at the 2* level, some good and some that are not exciting. think i might just do the buy on the norma lhotel websites. thanks

Tried 2.5* at 80 Added 2 * at 83 2* Hotels range there from 119$ per night on up. Suggestions welcome. Thanks - Lisa

Bid 1 USE $90 Bid 2 USE+1 92$ Accepted Marriott San Francisco Downtown for July 17th

Took your advice Bidding 85$ for 4* USE for 7/18-720, got Westin SanFran Market Street. And will do something else for thursday night. thanks for all of your help :) lisa

Tried the same strategy today and added boutique hotels - got up to 105$, but still no luck. I think i will try this for a few more days. And then find a different strategy or less stars. :)

I would like to try bidding with the max of 140 for either USE or USW. I think i come out with a better hotel for the $$. Thanks for the help. :)

My tops is $140/night. If i am totally off track for the 4* at this price, I will start aiming at the 3*s and see what i can do. My first choice is USE and then USW. I would rather not stay at the wharf. All suggestions appreciated. I believe that the current set of non 4* are cathedral, civic, lombard and south. :)

Have added cathedral hill, lombard street, south san fran and up to 125$. No deal Rack rates for the Westin Market Street 259 or the Westin St Francis 289$

I am confused by the rebid faq. one tries to determine where there are no hotels of a certain star variety and then adds that section. is that correct? For example, i don't see any 4* hotels in Area 1. so that could be added and then get a rebid?

Tried through your PRICELINE link USE 65 USE + USW 70 USE + USW + Fishermans 80 re connecect through your PRICELINE link use 90 use + usw 100 no luck Suggestions? Am i doing this correctly? Read your suggestions, but i am new to this. Thanks Lisa
