Priceline Hotel: NYC - 8/8 to 8/10

[treasuretrail]

is it reasonable to bid around $135 for 3* or $175 for 4* for these dates?

any zone except upper east/west side is fine. what are the chances of success?

how should i do it?

A few hotels are sold-out for those dates, but we can try... you certainly have plenty of time and it is low season (although there may be something happening on certain dates which makes demand spike).

However, are you familiar with PRICELINE RE-BIDDING as it's not clear from your post above if you are or not. You have two re-bid zones at the 4* level and one re-bid zone at the 3* level... feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your zones if you're unsure.

Also, are you sure you're OK with bidding the Downtown area? It's not exactly an ideal place for the typical tourist.

Let us know and we'll suggest a strategy to follow.

PS- i would also comment that if you're unsuccessful for a 4*, you may want to consider the Beekman Tower for $168/nite where you'll get a 'true' 1BR suite and the REVIEWS are excellent.
