cbaeza Posted February 13, 2012 Report Posted February 13, 2012 Hi, I'm visiting NYC for the first time, for a 10-day stay starting May 29th, 2012. I'm lookimg for a 4* hotel, basically anywhere in Manhattan, and I was wondering how much should I bid. Would $150 be enough, or should I go a bit higher?Thanks
thereuare Posted February 14, 2012 Report Posted February 14, 2012 Welcome to BetterBidding!If you haven't yet, please start by reading your messages.Also, it's just a tad easier on us when you include your check-out date, especially when your stay crosses into the next month, as i'm not that good at that childhood song i'm supposed to remember that reminds me of how many days each month has ;) I assume your dates are May 29-June 7... which would a 10 day stay... or is it May 29-June 8 which would be a 10 nite stay?A 4* hotel for this date range will likely cost you a bit more than $150/nite... i'm guessing closer to the $200 mark (although possibly just a bit below). Any strategy we suggest would of course start lower and go up gradually, but let us know your maximum bid, the zone(s) you're willing to accept (by PRICELINE name), and confirm your check-in/check-out dates, we'll then suggest a strategy for you to follow.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Thanks.
