Priceline Hotel: Dublin, Ireland Hotel Question

[faithful96]

Has anyone used Priceline for Dublin, Ireland? I've searched through Better Bidding and cannot come up with anything. However, I see Dublin comes up on Priceline.

I hate to bid w/o some research first.

We can try helping with a bidding strategy if you provde your dates, star rating, etc.

Somebody had to be the pioneer for this area.

I have tired to win a bid in Dublin for the past 6 weeks to no avail.

We start each bid cycle and move like this

Our dates are 6/19 - 6/23

Dublin North 5* - $80

Dublin North add 4* - $85

Dublin South add - $90

Dublin South of City added - $100

I started this pattern in December and have run it 6 times and lost.

Last week on Feb 12th I started at $100 and moved up to $125 and still no room. A buddy of mine got the Westin last October for $90 on a bid but that was the off season.

I finally gave up Friday and booked the Radisson on a special internet rate. The room was 119E which is around $153. The Radisson SAS is a 5* Hotel and since PL was failing at $125, I considered a 5* for $153 including all taxes not too bad. The PL room with taxes woud have been $140 or so.

Good luck
