Hello,

Can anybody help in identifying 3* hotel in Long Beach

It was $85 per day on dates 10/30/10 to 11/4/10

Amenities included were:

Pool(s)

Restaurant(s)

Laundry Facilities

High-speed Internet Access

Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks in advance!

Welcome to BetterBidding!

The Holiday Inn Long Beach has previously been reported to the board with this amenity combination so that would be my best guess for this one.

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

Thanks, I have a conference during that time and I checked to see the location of Holiday Inn and it is like 1.5 miles from the Convention center where the event is to be held. I am going to be looking for something closer to the center so that I can cut on my transport costs too. Any suggestions are welcome. Will be trying PRICELINE too.

Hello,

I need to attend a convention in Long Beach from 30 Oct to 4 Nov. and the housing offers through the site are expensive right now. The event is to be held in the Long Beach Convention Center and I am looking for hotels within walking distance since I am going to be there for 6 days.

Could anyone help with ideas about bids? I am looking for 3.5* and 3* hotels in Zone 1 at Long Beach.

The cut off date is Oct 1 for room confirmation, so is it a good idea to wait?

Thanks

Please keep all posts regarding this stay in this thread.

What would be your desired budget per night? Additionally, in terms of bidding on PRICELINE, you would have to be willing to possibly get a hotel anywhere in the zone you are bidding on - would any of the zones in the area be acceptable in that case?

Thanks Aaron,

The highest I can afford would be 75-85$ a day. I would prefer to stay in Zone 1 if I end up getting a room by myself so I can walk to the convention center.

Did you want to bid up to your limit first for a 3.5* hotel and then, if rejected, try for a 3* property OR is your goal the least expensive 3* or better for this stay?

Also, i assume you're comfortable receiving a hotel anywhere within the shaded boundaries of the "Long Beach" zone?

Let us know the above and we'll suggest a strategy for you to follow.

I tried placing my first bid for 58$ for at 3* in the Long Beach area and got rejected. My goal is a least expensive 3* in "Long Beach" zone. I saw that the Hyatt is a 3.5* from the maps on this site. Do you have an idea what hotels would be a 3* ?

The hotels that have been reported to the board (there could be other new/unreported hotels, as well) on PRICELINE in California can be found in the Priceline Hotel List thread.

I tried bidding upto $71 for 2.5* and was rejected.

Sorry to hear your bids are not being accepted... are you willing to go up to $85 for a 2.5* property? How high have you bid for a 3*?
