did use the links as usual

Started first with 4* up to 140, then started again with 3.5*. At 130 I got a counteroffer +28. Got it then for 135. No idea why that date is so expensive. Summary of Charges Offer Price: avg. per room, per night $135.00 Rooms: 1 Nights: 1 + Add nights for the same rate! Room Subtotal: $135.00 Taxes & Fees: $26.93 Total Charged to Card: $161.93 *Prices are in US dollars.

can anyone confirm this?

This seems to work for US departures only. I have been trying to bid from HAM to CLJ and I got those results: - When entering Hamburg on the first page, then I get HAM and BRE airports on the second page. - When trying BRE on the first page, then I get only BRE on the second page. - When trying other cities in the Hamburg Metro region like Elmshorn, Norderstedt, Stade etc then it doesn't offer any matching results that are in Germany. If I ignore that and click on next, then I get this: "We are unable to recognize the departure location you entered. Please re-enter a location:". I can't continue if I don't enter a city with an airport that is listed here: Priceline Airfare European Cities Do you have any workaround for that? :-)

Sorry if this question has been asked already but I couldn't find anything in this forum. Does Lufthansa participate in NYOP?

quick note: if you win this hotel don't be shocked by the F&B prices. They are ridiculously overpriced: Breakfast: 38 EUR/person (50 USD) Burger: 29 EUR (39 USD) Coke from the minibar: 6,70 EUR (9 USD) Coke in the restaurant: 9 EUR (12 USD) Madrid is a relatively cheap city so I have no idea why this hotel charges more than hotels e.g. in London (which is a really expensive city).

Started with 70 USD. At 80 USD I got a counteroffer for 98 USD. Room Cost (avg. per room, per night): $85.00 (USD) Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Guests Per Room: 2 Number of Nights: 2 Room Subtotal: $170.00 (USD) Taxes and Fees: $27.60 (USD) Total Charged to Card: $197.60 (USD) (All prices are in US dollars) Used the PRICELINE link. They have split the zones; it is now smaller and called "Castellana - Chamberi - Salamanca"

never heard of that and i live and have travelled a lot in europe. most hotel websites don't give you the opportunity to book infants and/or state on their website that they are free of charge.

Something went wrong here. The hotel is now listed in the Priceline list of known hotels but not in Hotwire. But this thread was started in the Priceline section. Can someone clarify this?

You don't have to check these sites individually. Just use www.trivago.com which crawls all major booking sites.

This is just FYI I was bidding for a friend and the maximum he wanted to spend was ca. 59 USD+tax. Dates July 2-July 6 Wiesbaden 3*/4*: 59 USD failed Mainz 3*/4*: 59 USD failed Bingen 3*/4*: 59 USD failed Date July 6-7 Cologne 4*: 59 USD failed

Summary of Charges Room Cost (avg. per room, per night): $55.00 (USD) Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Guests Per Room: 2 Number of Nights: 1 Room Subtotal: $55.00 (USD) Taxes and Fees: $11.96 (USD) Priceline Hotel Coupon: -$2.75 (USD) (SUMMER) Total Charged to Card: $64.21 (USD) Got it right away for 55. I think the same hotel was offered for 64 through express deals. Sorry this time I forgot to use the PRICELINE link.

All gold features were granted. Still the hotel seems to be left behind and the staff didn't really care. We had to ask 3 times for the baby crib and then got one completely without blankets/sheets at 10pm. Thats a absolute no go if you have a baby with you.

All Gold features incl. breakfast were granted. Upgrade to partial gulf view room on highest floor.

just opened my itinerary again and it says now that i have been upgraded to a 3.5* hotel. so the hilton is now a 3.5* hotel.

no, I won this one on PRICELINE

Many reviews state that some rooms don't have a window at all...

Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Guests Per Room: 2 Number of Nights: 3 Room Subtotal: $489.00 (USD) Taxes and Fees: $80.13 (USD) Total Charged to Card: $569.13 (USD) Used 10$ bonus cash so I believe PL was bidding 173 USD per night.

Hi, quick question: Let's assume I bid for a zone with 4* and I'm using a rebidding zone which has 3* & Resorts. Are resorts considered to be above 4* and therefore PL might upgrade me? To make it clear: I don't want to stay in that 3*/Resort zone but I need to know if I might win a resort in that zone. If yes, then I can't use zones with resorts for rebidding, correct? EDIT: Ignore that question. Found my answer here: Priceline Resorts and Re-Bidding

Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Guests Per Room: 2 Number of Nights: 1 Room Subtotal: $170.00 (USD) Taxes and Fees: $32.09 (USD) Total Charged to Card: $202.09 (USD) Started from 150$ with 5$ increments. At 160$ I got a counteroffer for +36$ (196$). Beacon Hotel 720 Ocean Drive Miami Beach, FL 33139 --> free breakfast. curious if that applies to PL winners as well. Used the PRICELINE link.

Summary of Charges Room Cost (avg. per room, per night): $90.00 (USD) Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Guests Per Room: 2 Number of Nights: 2 Room Subtotal: $180.00 (USD) Taxes and Fees: $32.98 (USD) Total Charged to Card: $212.98 (USD) Started from 60 USD. I had 10 USD bonus cash; so I don't know if the actual winning bid is 90 or 100.

Update: I have received a full refund.

Thanks for the hint. I have asked for a cancellation just now. They cancelled a booking once for my wife. Let's hope they do it again as I have booked many hotels through NYOP.

I'm pretty upset about this win because I accidentially clicked the wrong rebid zone. I was bidding for South Beach only. Room Cost (avg. per room, per night): $150.00 (USD) Number of Rooms: 1 Number of Guests Per Room: 2 Number of Nights: 1 Room Subtotal: $150.00 (USD) Taxes and Fees: $29.11 (USD) Total Charged to Card: $179.11 (USD)
