*CeeCee* Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Hi complete Priceline virgin here and looking for some help :) . Hoping to book a 4* hotel for October early November 2010 in Boston, Copley Place seams to be the most central location for shopping etc or is there any other location i should be looking at ? What figure should i start bidding at for this time of year roughly? Im not from the US so is there any specific holiday dates in October or early November that would bump up the price?Thanks for your help :) Link to comment

*CeeCee* Posted March 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 Basically a 1 week stay in the month of October would any particular dates be better than others? like midweek to midweek? Budget maybe i have high expectations for a 4* but max of $100 per night?? Link to comment
*CeeCee* Posted March 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 After doing a bit more research i think i will have to up my room price to a max of $130 per night.Is there a strategy behind bidding? Link to comment

crito Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 If your plan is to do some shopping and sight-seeing, Copley/Back Bay is probably the best but keep in mind that Boston is quite small and very easy to get around in. Quincy Market, Common/Theater District, Financial, any of those would be pretty good and central enough to make shopping and sight-seeing easy. You could even stay in Cambridge and be just a few minutes by T (the subway) to Park Street.I think you'll find better prices in November than October. Link to comment

October is an expensive month which usually requires a bid of well over $100, or even over $200 in some cases. Link to comment
