TBQ Posted February 20, 2005 Report Posted February 20, 2005 Accepted on the first try:Le Meridien ParkhotelWiesenhuettenplatz 28 38Frankfurt, Germany49-69-26970Check-In Date: Sat, Feb 26, 2005Check-Out Date: Sun, Feb 27, 2005Your Offer Price: $55.00Number of Rooms/Nights: 1 / 1Subtotal: $55.00Taxes & Service Fees: $16.36Total Charges: $71.3655 USD seems to be the "base" price for 4* winning bids in the Frankfurt East zone. This was for a weekend night, which I think worked in my favor. I've noticed that the amount needed to win in this area can go up, depending on whatever else is going on in the city (it's worthwhile to note that the Marriott, the other PL 4* hotel in this area, is across the street from the Messe (covention center) and can fill up when there's a fair or trade show going on),.The best web rate at Le Meridien was EUR 125,-- (about USD 163.32, which includes the VAT), so this is a substantial savings :)BTW, as a comparison, I checked the Marriot website, and their best rate was EUR 129,-- (I wonder if the fact that the ME was lower determined the selection of the ME).
thereuare Posted February 20, 2005 Report Posted February 20, 2005 Thank you for sharing your winning bid... a great deal!Hotels load 'special priceline rates' into a computer reservation system... generally speaking you will be awarded the highest priced one that is equal to or lower than your bid amount.Have a great stay.
