freebird723 Posted January 23, 2012 Report Posted January 23, 2012 1st time using Priceline and this site was extremely helpful with suggestions/tips! Using the PRICELINE link, I started bidding in the more Central Zones for a 4* (MayFair,Bloomsbury, Notting Hill) at $85 and went up to $120 with no luck. It was important to us to keep our hotel cost down because this is only 1 leg of our trip so I opted to add the Docklands zone and start bidding again at $85. Bid was accepted immediately and I am happy to know we are way below our budget. Thanks for all the help!
vanpoodle Posted January 23, 2012 Report Posted January 23, 2012 Not a bad result at all. It's always worth trying a less central zone if the zones you like better start getting more expensive. Very wise to start fresh bidding at Docklands rather than tack it on after nothing accepted in the other zones. Definitely check out the Docklands Museum (free and really good!), London Walks for some greated guided walking tours, and the Time Out London website -- which has a ton of ideas of things to do.
