Priceline Hotel: General Cali tips

Hi guys,

With the help of this board, I've used Priceline extensively in California and the deep South on road trips usually out of season, which I guess has made life pretty easy from a bidding point of view.

I am looking into doing another road trip in California from San Fran down to San Diego etc - but this time probably in the middle of summer (first few weeks of August) as the wife is a teacher and that is the only time we can go. I want to priceline it as we go along again which has worked really well in the past, but I'm worried bidding of rooms may be quite difficult/high as it will be a busy period.

I'm wondering if anyone has any experience of the West Coast in the middle of August and can give any tips.

Many thanks

Welcome! Perhaps you can "pay it forward" and share a few of your extensive winning bids so that others may be helped? More data points and winning bids make this board more relevant.

thanks!

Welcome (officially) to BetterBidding!

It would be appreciated if shared your wins with the board so that the information can help others... just as you were helped by those who posted before you.

If it's a high demand time then hotel direct rates will be high too, so while PRICELINE / HOTWIRE rates may not be low on an absolute basis, as long as the hotels aren't near capacity you should still be able to get good deals on a relative basis. Use the Priceline and Hotwire Calendar of Wins above to see rates last year (and the year before) for the areas and time frames you intend to visit.
