londonfirsttime Posted April 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 Hello, I would like it to be ideally below $150, but can go as high as $200 Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Rates are pretty high for these dates with the first nite of your stay being much more expensive then the balance... is SPLITTING YOUR PRICELINE BID an option? Or do you want to try up to your maximum $200 bid (or $150 or some number in between) for the complete stay before considering splitting the bid.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

londonfirsttime Posted April 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Hi,I could split the bid, how would I do that? Would that just mean that I stay at 2 different places? I tried up to 160, and it didn't get me anywhere yet. Thanks! Link to comment
londonfirsttime Posted April 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 i just did a split for 5/22-5/24 and ended up with $148 for Pullman Paris Rive Gauche. Felt like I could have got it for less, but "c'est la vie". Used the PRICELINE link.What do you recommend I bid for 5/20-5/22? Link to comment
thereuare Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Congratulations on your (partial) win!i just did a split for 5/22-5/24...What do you recommend I bid for 5/20-5/22?From your topic title your stay begins on 5/19... do you no longer need this nite OR are you willing to stay in 3 different hotels for this stay (5/19, 5/20-5/22, 5/22-5/24)Thank you for sharing your win and using the PRICELINE links on the board to begin your bidding.

londonfirsttime Posted April 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Oh no, I mean to say 5/20. The 19th was the busy date? Oh well, I will need a separate hotel from 5/20-5/22. I guess the good news is I still have a chance to get something closer to the center. I tried bidding yesterday for these 2 dates up to $180 and no luck for 5*, 4* in Champs Elysees-Opera West and Opera East-Halles, how would you recommend I bid for 5 or 4 in those areas?Thanks!
