Plans fell through and did not need the hotel stay after all. Thanks.

Financial District - Embarcadero Fisherman's Wharf SOMA - Moscone Center USE USW

Any 4* area (USE, USW, SOMA, etc) would be fine.

My plans for St. Louis fell through. Do you still need an update? Yes - specific zones that *don't* have any 4* hotel options. Looking at the Priceline San Francisco area there seems to be many that don't: Civic Center South - Hayes Valley Japan Town - Civic Center North Marina - Lombard Street Richmond SFO North - San Bruno South San Francisco Max budget would be $120/nt.

Ideally, I would like a 4* in the FD-E area and I have plenty of time to bid. Would be Sunday 3rd of April, 2016 for 2 nts. Wondered what to start my opening bid at? I get free rebids by adding another area, correct? Thanks! *Could moderator please change the date(s)? (Should be 4/3 - 4/5/16)

8/20 for 2 nights.

Amenities are : - Fitness - Restaurant - Business Center - Internet - Golf Should be Hilton @ The Ballpark or Hyatt Riverfront (Regency), correct? Cheers.

I have a general question and plan to call the hotel in question later, but have any winning bidders had success using their debit card for incidentals at check-in instead of a credit card? Hotwire confirmation states "The registered guest must present a valid credit card to secure any incidental charges such as phone calls. Debit cards may not be accepted." Any anecdotal experiences? Cheers.

Amenities listed: Fitness Center Restaurant(s) Business Center High-speed Internet Access

Dates of 4/30 - 5/2 I was looking at NMA for $100 but had seen that the Mag Mile/Streeterville 4.5* had dropped in price from $159 to $136 per night. Assuming it was either the James or Conrad, I bid and got the Conrad :) Best price on their site was a prepaid rate of $204 per night, so thanks guys for saving me a bundle! I will get an additional $20 off via the Hotwire/Entertainment Book deal. Apologies for the ever-changing posts!

I thought the OP was referring to the 4.5/5 which is directly next to the TripAdvisor binoculars logo....

I wish I'd pulled the trigger on Feb 7th, since the 4* now showing is 4/5 TripAdvisor rating, putting the Omni, SP and Affinia out of the picture. Perhaps it will change soon. Hey Aaron - Do you know of any current Orbitz codes? They are showing the Blackstone Hotel for $139/night for my dates with a special offer of $50 in Visa gift cards (if you purchase with a Visa). This would make the effective rate $114/night for that property. Not bad at all.

For that money, I think I'd rather bid the $99 that is currently showing for a Gold Coast 4* with a 4.5 TripAdvisor rating. (Sutton Place, Omni or Affinia). I can use my Entertainment Book coupon to save $20 off my stay to make it even cheaper.

Aaron / thereyouare - same dates (4/30-5/2) for Mag Mile/Streeterville but a 4.5* for $149 (and it has 4.5 TripAdvisor showing). That could only be Conrad or James, correct?

Nope, no # of reviews under the TA rating, but in the box above that it shows: "Recommended in 90% of customer reviews 500+ total reviews"

Saw another one on Hotwire for my dates of 4/30-5/2. NMA-WT-GC - Recommended in 90% of reviews (are these Hotwire reviews of Trip Advisor ones?) - TripAdvisor Customer rating of 4.5/5 (can't be Knickerbocker, Drake, W, to name 3) - Fitness Center - Restaurant(s) - Business Center - High-speed Internet Access It was listed as a 4* but is there any way that could be the Sofitel?

Thanks Aaron! I'll let you know what I decide.

Amenities shown are: - Fitness Center - Business Center - Restaurant(s) - High Speed Internet Access Cheers

You guys helped me on my Priceline question but I saw this earlier today. 4* in the NMA-Water Tower-Gold Coast area for $102/nt (4/30-5/2) - 500+ reviews on TripAdvisor The only ones I see would be Sofitel (585 reviews) and InterContinental (510 reviews). Either way that would seem to be a steal! Any thoughts? Cheers

Max bid would be $100

Thanks for the advice Aaron. I never knew that you could deduce the hotel from the info given on Hotwire - useful stuff! If that is for the Hard Rock, then that is pretty good. Best I see for a non-refundable stay is $211/night. I might give Priceline another try in a few days. Question - should I start where I left off or come down to $75/$80 in the hopes that the rates may have dropped? Cheers.

Unsuccessful up to $101. Started at $61 and added free rebids in $10 increments. Only want/need NMA but didn't plan on going over $100. I can't see anything going on that weekend in the city. Any advice/help?
