ruaok Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 Started bidding for St. Patrick's Day and the following Friday night about a week prior nothing budged going from $65 - $95 using all star levels even down to a 1* making sure to only get a hotel in Downtown, French Quarter or Convention Center. The night before St. Patrick's Day, still no luck. Decided to break the days apart into two separate bids. Got my bid when I was down to a 3* at $105 for 3/17/11 and was "upgraded" to 4* W Hotel New Orleans in Downtown. Tried to add the next night to my booking at the same rate for the W -- was rejected.Started bidding for the night of 3/18/11 using same strategy. Got my priceline bid accepted when I was down to 3.5* at $80 for 3/18/11 and was "upgraded" to the 4* Marriott New Orleans (French Quarter).
