thereuare Posted December 8, 2011 Report Posted December 8, 2011 Welcome to BetterBidding!To begin...PRICELINE only guarantees double occupancy, after that it's at the discretion of the hotel, and you could receive a room with only one bed. While you can call the hotel you win and request a room with two beds, the hotel may not be able, or willing, to honor your request. This is especially true/risky in NYC where a higher percent of rooms at many hotels only have one bed and rooms with two beds is often considered an upgrade. Is this a risk you're willing to accept? If not, HOTWIRE may still be an option as they allow you to search for up to quad occupancy and ensure sleeping accommodations for everyone you include in your search (although this usually means two beds, the second 'bed' could be a sofabed, rollaway, etc)Based upon the above let us know which service you think it best for you for this stay, as well as your desired star rating and expected budget, and we'll take it from there.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
KINGER Posted December 17, 2012 Author Report Posted December 17, 2012 I ended up staying at the Intercontinental Barclay Hotel for $200./nite plus taxes/fess for this visit. Total for 2 nites was $491.Thanks!Mike
AaronJB Posted December 17, 2012 Report Posted December 17, 2012 Did you stay via PRICELINE or HOTWIRE? If HOTWIRE, can you confirm the amenities that were showing? This information is available under the trip information in your HOTWIRE account. Thank you.Thanks for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
