Welcome to BetterBidding!

I'm guessing your budget won't be enough for a 4* in the Mayfair zone, but did you want to try that first up to your limit before trying the other two zones... OR is your goal the least expensive in any of the three zones?

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

hello,

my preferred zone is mayfair but if it costs more than 120$, i would change to regents park or kensington.

thank you for your help.

I'd use a week or so to lowball Mayfair up to your limit, then if that is rejected we'll incorporate the other two zones into your bidding strategy.

When bidding 4* in London you have ONE re-bid zones. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.

Select 4* Mayfair-Soho...

Bid $75, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $80

If the above is rejected wait 24 hours and re-try:

Select 4* Mayfair-Soho...

Bid $85, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $90

If rejected cotninue to re-try every 24 hours increasing your bids $10 from the previous bid (so $95/$100, $105/$110, and $115/$120).

If/when you hit $120 let us know and we'll revise to begin including the other two zones.

Any questions feel free to ask.
