Priceline Hotel: 4* Hamburg Renaissance Hotel

[Chris26WI]

Extremely happy with this hotel...exactly the hotel I wanted; was afraid to get the Le Meridien Stillhorn... (was bidding in Priceline HK as the Le Meridien Stillhorn hasn't been reported there up to now...).

Great saving, as Marriott.com says 155 EUR / night for the Renaissance for this date.

Thanks for the new property for the list!

Can you let us know what this is in US dollars? (i see your rejected US$ bid, but not sure where that is relative to your acceptance).

Thanks again!

78 USD ~ 610 HK$, that's my accepted bid ;-)

I think you were really lucky. The Priceline HK zone map looks exactly the same as the Priceline.com zone map, so it seems pretty likely they use the same hotels. Maybe LM Stillhorn had no availability.

It had availability!!! I checked before in systems like HRS.de and Lemeridien.com.... - so indeed verrry risky!!! So I was even someway relieved when I saw the 551 HK$ bid was refused.... (because the Renaissance usually goes for 610 HK$, according to the other - Asian - board...
