stefan1812 Posted August 6, 2010 Report Share Posted August 6, 2010 I need help with my bidding for a Philadelphia Downtown Hotel 11/30-12/2. I'm searching for 3* and up!Originally planned to spend about 60 $ max! I saw at Hotwire that the cheapest Center City hotels are going for 76 $ to 90 $.My first bid was 60 $ ---> rejectedSecond bid 69 $ ---> rejected, but received the message that I'd receive another bid if'd go up to 84 $Didn't go up because I can get a 3* hotel at Hotwire for 76 $.My question now, is there a chance that I can get a hotel for my favored 60 $ and am I booking to far in advance, should I try some weeks for 60 $?Thanks!

thereuare Posted August 6, 2010 Report Share Posted August 6, 2010 Nobody can say if prices will come down.... or continue higher, between now and your stay. See the "bid early or close to arrival" link in our PRICELINE FAQ.I would take note of the hotel direct of some of the 3* hotels in the zone that you're bidding and keep tabs on them, if you see rates begin to creep higher then it's a sign you may want to lock something in sooner rather then later, but at the moment you have plenty of time so you it's ok to continue to bid on the low end of the generally accepted range.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Keep us updated and let us know if we can be of further help along the way.
