amylou1989 Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 Hi All, I would really appreciate some bidding tips for New York City.In: 9 NovemberOut: 13 NovemberI've already tried a combination of areas and prices (up to $139) but yet no luck. I'm not particularly fussy on where we stay, price is most important.Thanks for your assistance. Link to comment
AaronJB Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 Good afternoon. :)Unfortunately, this is a difficult period in NYC (as is most of October through mid-December) and rates are high-very high throughout this time. What would be your desired max budget per night? Desired zones/star ratings? Which zones/star ratings/prices have you bid at so far?Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches. Link to comment

amylou1989 Posted August 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 We are hoping to get something under $150 per night. I have tried Times Square, South Central Park, Mid West, Upper East, Upper West and Soho/Financial District. Thanks for your help. Link to comment

amylou1989 Posted August 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 I've tried from 3 star up to 5 star so far. Link to comment
thereuare Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 This is an expensive time of year in NYC and $139 is not likely going to be enough for a 3* hotel... based upon current rates you're probably looking at $150-$175 to be successful for this nite.Let us know your maximum bid for this stay and we'll suggest a strategy for you to follow.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

amylou1989 Posted August 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 I would be happy to go up to $150 Link to comment
thereuare Posted August 14, 2011 Report Share Posted August 14, 2011 I would be happy to go up to $150Well, that would be on the very low end of the range, but if you'd like we can give it a try...However, before bidding, i have a question regarding the zone(s) you're willing to accept:TS, CPS, MTW, UES, UWS, DTAs the 3.5* and under the CPS has the Hudson Hotel which is nice enough except for the extremely small rooms, would this be an acceptable outcome?Also, note that both UES and UWS go fairly far North, which is not typically the most convenient for the average visitor, are both of these accepable?Is there a reason you're not including ESB and/or MSG in your bidding? Are you not including MTE due to the possible 15 minute walk to the subway?Let us know the above and we'll advise accordingly.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.
