Priceline Hotel: 4* NYC (MTW) Royalton

[lsnhc]

We will be in NYC on 8/11 and 8/12 and will be traveling with our 16 yr old. First, even though it asked for childrens' ages up through 17, would I be better off putting in 3 adults to ensure that we have ample room?

Secondly, 2 - 3* properties come up:

Times Sq-Theatre District $169. Amenities are:

Smoke Free Rooms

Restaurant(s)

Business Center

High-speed Internet Access

4* Trip Advisor

3* MSG-Chelsea $199 Amenities are:

Complimentary Breakfast

Smoke Free Rooms

Fitness Center

High-speed Internet Access

4* Trip Advisor

Any thoughts on either (or both) of these properties?

Please post a follow-up for your prior Fort Lauderdale Hotwire thread (post in that thread what you decided for that stay), then reply to this thread and we would be happy to look into the above listings.

Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

Can you please add the amount of your winning bid to the Priceline Ft Lauderdale thread so we can add this information to the topic title.

The 3* Time Square property matches previous reports for the Belvedere so that would be my best guess for this one.

I'm not currently seeing the 3* MSG property when searching HOTWIRE for your dates (i tried both 2adult/1child and 3adults/0children).

I don't think the room assignment will be based upon whether you book as 2a/1c or 3adults... likely viewed as triple occupancy by the front desk clerk either way.

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

The 3* MSG was there today (7/22) at 4:00 p.m. I searched using 2 adults and 1 child.

This property is a match for previous reports of the Holiday Inn Express Madison Square Garden so that would be my best guess.

Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.

I played around with pretty much every conceivable combination of stars/zones, etc., and came up with a genuine home run: Wed. 8/11 - Thurs 8/12 4* Royalton $175.00 This has to be one of the best deals I have ever gotten on either Priceline or Hotwire. Price on website was $429.00.

Booked through link above!

I'm closing this thread. See new posting re: 8/11 - 8/12.

We eliminated the child and everything changed!

Congrats on your success. :)

Marvelous deal for this 4* boutique! Glad you are pleased with the result.

Thank you for sharing your win and using the site's PRICELINE link.

Enjoy your stay.
