Priceline Hotel: Lake George - Glen Falls Hotel

[HoosierYankee]

I just placed a bid of $79 on a 2.5* hotel in the Lake George - Glen Falls area on PL for 1 night 7/24 and it was rejected. Will try again in 24 hours.

Rates are quite high for this nite... i think you'll likely need to bid significantly higher.

What is your maximum bid for this stay?

I think I could go as much as twice my original bid. I based my 1st bid on a May bid that I saw on the board.

Unfortunately you don't have any re-bid zones and not much time before your stay... what is the best rate you're able to find thru conventional booking channels?

Note that HOTWIRE has a 3* hotel offered in this area for $182/nite... the Tripadvisor reviews seem 'ok' with a 3.5/5.0 user review rating, but the 'hotwire recommendation' number is somewhat low at 65%... not sure if this is something you would conisder for just one nite or if you'd look elsewhere.

Hotels.com has a travel lodge 2* room for $129/$149. Expedia the same.

I placed another bid for a 2.5* hotel for $129 but it was also rejected. I was planning on going to the Lake Placid Iron Man this weekend but everything looks to be booked up within 85 miles. I just might take a chance and drive up anyway looking for a hotel that had a cancellation. Thanks.
