Priceline Hotel: 4* Ft Lauderdale (Beach) W Hotel Fort Lauderdale Hotel

[SK524]

I am VERY pleased to report this winning bid for the W hotel on a Friday night in February!

After spending a few days doing research here and bidding (using your PRICELINE link every time, of course!) up to $90 for a 3* in the Downtown area with no luck (hoping to get something close to our friends who are staying at the Embassy Suites), I thought maybe we'd switch to Beach area instead. Used your HOTWIRE link and found what I was fairly certain (thanks to reports here!) was the W Hotel, for $115. Was about to book it but thought I'd better try Priceline again first, since I saw on this board that there was a successful bid yesterday for the W at only $100. I knew of course that I could end up with another property, which was ok.

Started bidding $80 for 4* Beach. Rejected, but Priceline told me I could try my identical request again for $100. Knowing I still had several re-bid opportunities, went back and re-bid $85, then $90, which to my surprise and delight was accepted for the W! Total with taxes is $108.63.

This deal sounds amazing to me since on their website, the cheapest room for this night is $422!! (which I wouldn't/couldn't ever pay!) We have never stayed at a W hotel so we're looking forward to it.

Sorry to go on & on but I hope the details are helpful, plus I'm excited! Thanks again to thereuare & AaronJB (& anyone else) for an amazing website! You guys rock!!

WOW! This is an incredible discount for this newer (I believe it opened last year) W property. Glad you are pleased with the result and thank you for your compliments on Betterbidding! :)

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