Priceline Hotel: Help with bidding

[mchadda3794]

HI,

Travelling to San Juan PR from Nov 4-7th, used those dates for a hotwire search and it gives me $112/night for from what i've read seems to be the intercontinental.

While that would be ok...I would love La Concha...any chance I could get that on priceline for similar rates? I see someone on here got it for 90/night, but I'm guessing that is not so common.

How would I go about trying to narrow it down?

I have used the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links from the board to search, and will do so to book.

Thanks for the help!

Thanks, please also read your messages.

Regarding your question(s) above, you can't bid on a specific hotel when using PRICELINE, you have to be able to accept any hotel in the zone at the star level (or higher) that you choose. With HOTWIRE you can often take an educated guess as to what is being offered based upon the amenities associated with the property, but it's still a 'best guess' and no guarantees you will receive the hotel you're hoping for. As well, HOTWIRE only shows one hotel at each star level per zone, so there is a chance the hotel you're hoping for isn't the one which is offered for your particular dates.

Let us know how you'd like to proceed and we'll take it from there.

Thanks for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board.
