mabel Posted September 8, 2011 Report Posted September 8, 2011 If one is bidding on a room on Priceline, will they give you ONLY those hotels that are on their "regular" list? IOW - If they only have two 5-star hotels in the area you want to be in on the "regular" reservation list, and you bid for an (unnamed) 5-star hotel, will it be one of those two?I am looking at the two 5-stars in Zurich on Priceline which lists only Marriott and Hyatt, on their regular reservation lists.
Romelle Posted September 8, 2011 Report Posted September 8, 2011 Nope. Several times I've received hotels not reported here by other bidders, and not on the retail side of Priceline. You can get a good general idea of what you might get, but don't make any assumptions.FYI - the Marriott is on the list of hotels that has been reported as a win (first post in this Priceline - Other Countries area).Romelle
hohogap Posted September 8, 2011 Report Posted September 8, 2011 Agreed. I have often been pleasantly surprised that the opaque PL property won was better than those on the PL known list (but no guarantees, of course!)
