Tried earlier today and was rejected at $90 for 4.5* for Magnificent Mile - River North Area and -Millennium Park - Loop - Grant Park Area. I retried after the time was up. Selecting a 4* and the same area of for the same price.

After taxes came to $109. Meanwhile the cheapest rate is on the hotel site going for $193 before taxes $224.66 after taxes $674!! Great deal!!

Priceline:

Room Price: $90.00 /room night Rooms: 1 Nights: 3 Room Subtotal: $270.00 Taxes & Fees: $57.57 Total Charged Today: $327.57

I was going to do Hot.wire if this was rejected with $95 ($360.50($120)and they had what I believe was the same hotel according to the boards.

1st started at $50 rejected with zones of West and East, then added 2* and used the same areas and rebid at $55 and we won.

With taxes and fees we will pay per night $65.32, total cost is $326.60

The cheapest rate online is $513.20(per night $102.64)

Used the PRICELINE links on this site and happy with the great savings!!!!!

I have never used hotwire, does it work the same way as priceline? Does that mean I put in $78 on hotwire and I won a hotel?

Ok we ended up adding in the zone of West Prague, started 1st bid at $50, rejected, then we added 2* and up it to $55 and we won the Moevenpick Hotel Prague. We are happy bc we rather spend the less $ on a hotel room and use the trains. Thanks for all your help!!! Love this site and I always use the links!

A guess would be somewhere between $60-$80... did you see that HOTWIRE has a 4* hotel in Central Prague for $78/nite? (this property has not yet been identified, and keep in mind that each service rates properties based upon their own criteria, so this may not be a 4* rated hotel on PRICELINE, or PRICELINE may not even use this property in their inventory)

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

I have never used hotwire, does it work the same way as priceline? Does that mean I put in $78 on hotwire and I won a hotel?

Since it seems the wins have mainly been for 5* and 4*, what do you think would be a successful bidding strategy for 4* for the entire stay?

Thank you

Is SPLITTING YOUR PRICELINE BID an option?

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Yes we wouldnt mind it. How should I go about the bidding? Also what do you think would be a accepted bid if I bid all five nights for a 3* hoteL?

THANKS

Never thought to look at other hotel options, so I just did and Anna Hotel would be the best option if the hotel bids are unsucessful. It would be $94.91 per night but they do offer free internet and breakfast, but for that price being a 3* I would rather a priceline hotel. Then I noted that my prices are $40 higher per night Friday-Sunday.

Friday, April 6, 2012- Sunday 8, 2012 $97.58 and Then Monday April 9-April 11 $61.78.

The priceline hotels listed on this site are priced as follows per night:

5*Hilton $211.94

5*Marriott $202.40

4*Hotel Ametyst $125.40

4*Clarion Congress $106.74

3*Courtyard Flora $100.62

Any tips on how I can win any of these hotels?

I bid $62 for 5*, then I bid $40 for 3*, and then the last bid was 2* for $40

Hello,

My husband and I plan on going to Prague during Easter break it would be from Friday (Good Friday) April 6, 2012- Wednesday April 11,2012. We def want to stay in East Prague and we would like a 3* hotel at around $30-$55, 4* hotel at around $60-$65, and or a 5* $70-$75, we care more about the savings than the stars so the better deal for us would prob be a 3*. I tried today many unsucessful bids only in East Prague using your link =0) started at 5* at $55,and then selected 4* & 3* at $45 but nothing worked!

Any tips??

also what is this priceline bonus money, I am an avid priceline booker and I never got one!!

Wanted to stay in the center of Munich, but my bids were all rejected between $75-$80, so I added the airport area at $55, it was accepted. I saw someone won this hotel at $53 but I am still happy with my $55. We have a car and plan on visiting the castles in Baveria and driving into Munich.
