Hotwire Hotel: 4* San Juan Sheraton Puerto Rico Hotel and Casino

[RENLAUBRI]

Having read a previous winning priceline bid post yesterday with the exact travel dates as mine (March 4 & 5) relating to San Juan I went to PL and used the same information. Result, bid rejected. Decided to try again today increased by $5 and again bid rejected. Bid resort then 4 star. Any suggestions? Thanks.

This may be an issue of inventory if it is for the same night. Are you staying for one night or two? What would be your desired budget per night?

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

It will be a two night stay. March 4th and 5th. Budget?? I guess I will spend what it takes but would like to fall into the same range as others. Maybe low $100 for resort $90's four star. I will try again today. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Went to $125 Resort added 4 star. No luck. Will try again this afternoon at $130. Thanks for all you help.

While not ideal for a 2 nite stay, is SPLITTING YOUR PRICELINE BID an option? (you'll need to change hotels mid-stay but can probably get something each nite for less than you have already bid)

Let us know your thoughts and if an option we'll detail further..

Thanks for the suggestion. I checked it and did notice on Hotwire by splitting the dates the price did drop considerably. Based on that I am giving this some thought. Will report back.

Ok here is the scoop. No luck with PL. Checked HW split dates. Amentities looked exact so I went that way and got the Conrad for the first nite and booked the second nite and got the Sheraton.

3-4-11 Cornrad Condado $108 fees $18.90 total $126.90. Amentites listed...Casino, Fitness Center, Pool, Restaurant, Business Center, Golf Nearby and Spa. Nothing additional when I clicked see all.

3-5-11 Sheraton Puerto Rico Hotel and Casino $124 fees $20.97 total $144.97. Amentities listed Casino, Smoke Free, Fitness Center, Pool, Restaurant, Business Center, Hi Speed Internet, Golf Nearby. Clicked see all and Spa showed up.

Again thanks for all the help.

Congratulations on your success!

Sorry you didn't receive the same hotel for each leg of your purchase, but as i mentioned in your other Hotwire Hotel thread, the amenities above are not the same for each property.

At the very least you did receive a nice deal for each purchase and hopefully you can make this work well for your plans.

Thank you for sharing your results and using the HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your purchase.

Have a great trip!
