kershawrulz Posted June 17, 2011 Report Share Posted June 17, 2011 I'm in NYC 6/18-6/23. I was doing a lot of bidding late last night for the whole stay while looking at this forum, targeting this hotel, the Helmsely, and also the Hudson a bit. I wasn't successful in getting 4* for up to $190, nor 3.5* for up to $150, nor 3* for up to $130 so I wound up deciding to break up my stay.I got these first two nights of 6/18 and 6/19 for $130 + $31 fees per night which I'm happy with, but now I'm trying to figure out some deal for the last three nights and I think I need some help. For 6/20-6/23 I tried targeting this Sheraton for as high as $225 and it didn't get accepted (I also tried to get it for just Monday 6/20 night for maybe up to $190 and no luck there either). I wasn't able to get anything targeting the Helmsley (3.5*) nor the Hudson (3.5*) on 6/20-6/23 for up to $190 either.I'm looking at some of the wins on the Priceline - NYC calendar for these dates and seeing a great win on Le Parker Meridien (4*) for $130 many months ago, but it's clearly not accepting bids for anywhere near that anymore since I've been including CPS in many of my bids.Any tips on things I should try? I don't per se have a budget but I don't like getting ripped off, I guess nobody does. =)I guess I should specify I'm not too concerned with what zone I end up in the last three nights, but it has to be in Manhattan and the closer it is to midtown, the better.
