chrisplu Posted August 21, 2003 Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 I've been trying for days to get a hotel room in Midtown. I went through several rounds of bids earlier in the week in the $95-$105 range but got nothing. Having been to some crummy hotels in the city, I limited myself to 4 star hotels. (Although after reading the posts on this site, it seems that there are some 3 stars that are actually better.) After the 72 hour period had elapsed, I started at $110, then $115, and ended up with this hotel at $120. It's a good location but some of the reviews on Trip Advisor.com haven't been great. But given what I saw on Hotwire, I figured this was about as good as I was going to get. Link to comment
fitzhokies Posted August 21, 2003 Report Share Posted August 21, 2003 What dates were your reservations?Please post what you think of this hotel-I am going nuts trying to find one for our visit in September! Link to comment
TravelGuy Posted August 22, 2003 Report Share Posted August 22, 2003 If you're not already a Hyatt Gold Passport member, I would join now. Then call and have them add your HGP number to your reservation - you can do this even though you've booked through Priceline. According to tripadvisor.com, the higher floors are much better at the NYC Grand Hyatt, so you might want to make sure and indicate high floor in your HGP preferences. Being an HGP member and having your preferences noted in advance on your folio should help insulate you from the bad experiences others have described. Link to comment
