colt45 Posted January 10, 2012 Report Posted January 10, 2012 Started off bidding of $50 in scottsdale area and have basically added all areas in the city and the last bid of $85 was not accepted. Really want to get into a 4* for this trip and stay under $100/night, are there any reasons why these dates are so $$$? The most I saw in the forum was around $75/night on a 4*
thereuare Posted January 11, 2012 Report Posted January 11, 2012 I don't know if anything is happening in this area over these dates, but this stay does include Valentine's Day, which is typically a very busy nite for hotels. (EDIT TO ADD: i did find a few healthcare conferences over these dates: Y90, HCCA Managed Care Compliance, CHS Directors Conference... but not sure how big of a draw any of these are)What is the best rate you're able to find thru conventional booking channels?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

colt45 Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Posted January 11, 2012 Looking on hotels.com most 4* in the area are listed in the lower $100s+
colt45 Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Posted January 11, 2012 Ended up adding the north phoenix area to the list and bid of $95/night was accepted, Pointe Hilton Tapatio Cliffs Resort. I was a little disapointed by this one only because I saw in a recent post for similar days in feb at the same $95 someone got a really nice downtown listing.
AaronJB Posted January 12, 2012 Report Posted January 12, 2012 Sorry to hear that you're disappointed with the result - hopefully the hotel will exceed expectations. Not a bad deal with the lowest regular rate at $156 and change.Thank you for sharing your win and please use the site's PRICELINE or HOTWIRE links to start your purchases and searches.Enjoy your stay.
