Priceline Hotel: Milan Hotel Bidding Help

[slavenya]

Hi guys,

Need your help with getting hotel for one night August, 29 till August, 30.

Much prefer area of main train station since do not want to use public transport with the bags.

Tried 5* priceline bidding for 120-135 without success. See the hotwire price of 5* hotel for $221 per night for my date.

Do not bother if it will be less stars but breakfast is good addition.

BTW, successfully booked 5* in Mariot Zurich (no breakfast) twice for 120 each time (used the link)

$150 is a pretty solid budget.. I'd double check the web to see what rates you are seeing. I just left Milan last week... and instead of Priceline I just checked out some hotels and booked the old fashioned way. I stayed at the Enterpris.e Hotel.... very nice.. great breakfast.. and for my nights as definitely within your budget (I paid $84 euros a night on a 3 or 4 night package I believe.

Breakfast there is worth paying for online... $10 euros a heads... money well spent if you ask me.

There is a trolly right outside the hotel that takes you downtown... it takes 15-20 minutes (that is the worst part of the hotel is a slow, unairconditioned trolly ride). You don't have to book this way.. but I'd be careful to limit your upper end of the bid range so you don't over bid just because Priceline's offerings in Italy aren't great
