Daniel1978 Posted May 21, 2005 Report Share Posted May 21, 2005 Hi everyone !Can anybody give me bidding help for my forthcoming stay in Jersey City, NJ from 6/10 - 6/14 ? Since I have already stayed there, I would really appreciate going to the HYATT Regency Jersey City. Unfortunately, there seems to be another 3* upscale hotel in the Jersey City Area (DoubleTree ?), which leads to a 50-50 chance of winning the HYATT.What are the chances of getting the HYATT when bidding for the Jersey City area ? As far as I know, the HYATT came up only a few times within the last months. What would be a suitable bid for the above mentioned period ?Thank you !Daniel Link to comment

thereuare Posted May 22, 2005 Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 Welcome to BetterBidding!The HYATT has been getting tougher and tougher to get and there is no way of currently targeting this property. If you'd like help bidding for the area we'll be happy to help, but the Hyatt (and 3* in this zone as well) have not been easy to come by lately.

Daniel1978 Posted May 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 @ thereuareThanks for the warm welcome ! Since I already have my backup reservation for the Hyatt, I would at least give it a try and bid in order to get a better deal.Maybe you'll need the following information:Number of nights: 4Number of persons: 1Period: 6/10-6/14Best prices seen: HYATT 139,-- (3 nights), 279,-- (1 night), total 696,--DOUBLETREE 139,-- (4 nights), total 556,--What would you suggest ??? As I said before, I would prefer the HYATT rather than the DOUBLETREE.Thanks in advanceKind regardsDaniel Link to comment

Daniel1978 Posted December 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2005 Unfortunately, I was not successful with my bids as instructed by you. And as time was running out, I used my backup reservations and had a great time in NYC.Next time, I will start bidding earlier in order to get a good deal. My good London deal tells me to repeat this :) So long,Daniel Link to comment
