First bid $78 for Convention Center area for 4 star

Then added White House and raised bid to $80 and won!

I used www.savingsbarn.com and clicked on the PRICELINE.com link.

The Westin Waterfront is in the World Trade Center area

(sorry as they don't make it abundantly clear which area you won your hotel in)

After some great help from this board, I got the Westin Waterfront from 10/01-10/04

Bid $110 for a 4 star hotel, using Cambridge, Copley, Downtown Boston - Charlestown , Medford - Somerville, Revere - Logan Airport and World Trade Center

and success finally after trying yesterday using $70-$100!

1) go up to my max of $95/$100 for a 4 star before going to a 3 star

2) go for the airport zone 4 star before trying something else

3) stick with 4 star anywhere else before 3 star

4) include WTC and South Boston

I am looking at these areas for 10/01-10/04:

- Copley

- Downtown Boston - Charlestown

- Revere - Logan Airport

and potentially...

- South Boston

- World Trade Center

For a 3 star max like $75 and for a 4 star max like $95 or $100 if y'all think my chance would be better.

Ideally i'd like to stay by the airport because I have an early morning flight on 10/04 that i'd like to just hop on an airport shuttle provided by the hotel.

Looking to stay in Boston (Either by airport or downtown) in 4 star hotel from 10/01 - 10/04.

I tried bidding via Priceline, 4 star hotels and went from $70 all the way to $88, adding various area as I went along but no luck.

Any advice on how much I should expect to bid. Really would be happy with the Hyatt or Hilton by the airport for $90 and under as I've seen some good bids for that much.

Should I just try each day as maybe get lucky with the prices coming down as the date gets closer?

thanks!

At worst, I could go for a 3 star - if y'all have suggestions on which ones would be good and how much I should bid for the same dates.

Succeeded on the first bid. Can't wait for my Heavenly bed!!!!!

I guess it depends on what a 3 star hotel room really means or is defined as

Don't get me wrong, I have not stayed in many nice hotels in my life (the best being the Essex House in NYC) so 3 star means average for me if we are talking out of 5 stars. Size of the room was small but so are the ones in Europe and they are just as nice as the Hawaii room.

I posted a trip review of this hotel just a few das ago and also posted some pictures of the hotel at RealHotelPhotos.com so you can see where you'll be staying. I was very pleased for my $60.

Awesome Stay! April 25 - April 28 2005

Booked on Priceline for $60 a night. I got to the hotel about 1230pm on Sunday and was greeted with a smile at the registration desk that my room was ready to move into. I was in one of the standard rooms. Yes, it dide face the Aston next door but who cares...who's in a room that mich anyway. Look to the right and you see some other hotels and the mountains. To the left and its the ocean. You're not in a oceanfront room so dont expect it.

The room itself was small, but if you rwad a review you know that beforehand and you dont get your hopes up that its going to be huge. By the way, unless you pay an outrageous amount for a hotel (ie like $200+ a night, all the rooms are pretty much the same size. The room itself was clean and the bed was comfortable. The TV was adequate, no movie channels though for the evening before you go to bed. The bathroom was nice (small yes) but still adqeuate. Remember you're only paying like $60 a night. Expect it.

The pool deck was very nice, offering views of diamond head and the ocean. Plenty of room to relax and lay out. There is an ABC store right off the loby which is nice...although they are on every corner. The staff were very friendly and ofent held the elevator for you or let you take it and they took another one. Expedia has a tours desk in the loby to set stuff up for you.

Well, once I figure out how to post pics I will.

Locations is awesome, short walk to everything in Waikiki without having to pay for it. Definetly recommend it and worth the 3* it got.

That was my first bid in the zone. I was hoping that bidding above the $53 I saw some other posters got for this hotel may help my chances of gettnig the Radisson, but alas i got this one.

For a young kid, all I need is a bed to sleep on. And for $63/night right across from the beach and close to everything in Waikiki, you just can't beat that price.

Who knows, maybe I'll be able to squeek out a room upgrade.

I'll take some pics too for everyone to see.

Not a bad deal. I'm staying by myself so I am not too worried about some of the negative comments for this hotel. I am expecting a "Motel 6" experience expect staying right across the street from the beach.

$63/night

April 25 - April 28

Will leave a comment after I stay.
