  3. The only good thing about this "win" is that I get to add a new hotel to the PRICELINE EXPRESS listings on the Big Board!  Not sure this hotel is really a 3* but I've been booking on the BB site for many years and understand the good and bad with trying to ID the hotel prior to purchasing.  Arriving after midnight so I only need a clean bed.  Initial amenities reported were:

     

    Business Center

    Restaurant

    Airport Shuttle

    No Smoking Rooms/Facilities

     

    Let me know if you need full amenities reported after win.

  4. Had booked this hotel via Hilton web site (at nearly US$185/night) but was checking Board and PL and PRICELINE EXPRESS and this deal popped up with a 5% discount for PRICELINE EXPRESS.  This is the precise hotel/location we wanted to book and the BB web site helped narrow down the choices.  Always fun to get exactly what you want.  Deal broke down as follows: 

    Number of nights:5 nights

    Room subtotal:  $500.00

    Taxes & fees:  $143.00

    Taxes:  $143.00

  5. Had been looking at Hong Kong hotels and prices for my Hiltons had gone up despite a China Sale through August 18th.  Bid 5*, then 4* and it looks like a nice property.  Prior trips I've stayed on Hong Kong Island and thought Kowloon might be a good choice for this trip.    Here's the information:

     

    Offer price:$141.00/night

    Adjusted room price (bid) with Hotel Fee Credit: $141.00/night

    Hotel fee:$0.00

    Number of rooms:1 room

    Number of nights:4 nights

    Room subtotal:$564.00

    Taxes & fees:$88.72

    Total charged today:$652.72

     

    Amenities listed on bid page included:  Free Internet (in Room), Shuttle, Gym and Restaurant.  Looks like around a 20-25% savings over other prepaid rates online. 

     

  6. Looks like a nice win, the PRICELINE EXPRESS price was $127/night for a 3 1/2 star hotel.  Online nonrefundable booking price with the hotel would have been US$170/night, so pleased with the result.  My first trip to the homeland, although late October won't be the best weather, still should be fun and it's clearly more cost effective! 

     

    Total as follows:

    Offer price:$111.00/night

    Adjusted room price (bid) with Hotel Fee Credit: $111.00/night

  7. Was looking for one room and prices had been high.  PRICELINE EXPRESS had only been listing 1* hotels for the past months and a 3* just popped up at $119/night.  Decided to NYOP at $115, and voila, accepted on first try.  As always, all searches bids and wins are from the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the BB Board!

  8. Nice win for the second night of my trip to Juneau in June.  Online rate via direct hotel booking was $179/night, so good bargain.  Used the HW $15 off rate through the banner on the Board (so actual HW rate was $108.00).  Hot Rate noted the Prospector hotel as the last one that was won, but I've had surprises before when another hotel showed up.  HW often overrates the hotels vs. PL, but still a good deal.  I'll be glad to list amenities, but since this appears to be the first report of a HW win in Juneau, I'll await your direction.  As always, all searches, bids and wins are made through the BB Board!  Total charges as follows:

     

    Rate per night:$123.00

    Rooms ( 2 adults ):1
    Subtotal:  $123.00

    Tax recovery charges + fees: $26.81

    Discount:  -$15.00
    Hotwire total:  $134.81
  9. Hoped to get the 3 1/2 star Marriott as I had won that for the following Monday stay (using HHonors points for the Embassy Suites in between).  Price as follows:

     

    Offer price:$111.00/night

    Adjusted room price (bid) with Hotel Fee Credit:$111.00/night

    Hotel fee: 

    Number of rooms:1 room

  10. Was looking for a last night for our stay for my daughter's graduation, and prices were sky high for this date on Hilton and other web sites.  Marriott web site for this date has room for $289.00, so great win.  Amenities originally listed included the following:
