Priceline Hotel: 3* Flagstaff-Sedona (Flagstaff) Little America Flagstaff

[verga]

I am trying to secure a hotel in Flagstaff for May 12-14, 2010 (visiting Grand Canyon). Using your PRICELINE link, I bid $42 for Flagstaff and increased to $44 for Sedona - no luck.

I will try again tomorrow. What is a reasonable amount to bid for that period?

Thanks,

Verga

Please provide which star rating you have bid for and desired max budget per night.

My bid was for 3* at both Flagstaff and Sedona. The last winning bid in the same area was $51 + taxes (Radisson). I was hoping to get something lower than that price.

How high are you willing to bid for a 3* hotel in either of these zones?

With hotel direct rates at a 3* property in these zones selling for $100+ your current maximum bid is still less than half the prevailing rate.

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

I tried 3* again and my bid for Flagstaff was $44 and added Sedona at $46 - both rejected. I used your PRICELINE link to bid.

I prefer 3* if possible and up to $51 + taxes. I would love to stay at the new Marriott Courtyard but of course there is no guarantee that I'll get it.

Right now, Ramada has a 40% sale that ends tomorrow (includes Ramada West Grand Canyon Area (2.5*) . I am thinking of reserving 2 nights at $47.40 per night ($52.36 all in) as my back-up.

I tried your strategy and PRICELINE links and won it at $51. We got the Little America Flagstaff. It has some great reviews at tripadvisor so we are looking forward to our stay there.

Please edit heading to reflect the successful bid price.

Thanks for all your assistance, thereuare.
