ufjoe21 Posted July 3, 2005 Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 you make your request for 2 beds directly to the hotel NOT to pricelinhow much is Link to comment
ufjoe21 Posted July 3, 2005 Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 I'm guessing the bid was around $82 ? Link to comment

chippy Posted July 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 Hi again,This time difference is catching me out!I also calculate the winning bid to be about $81-$82.I did make my request for 2 doubles to the hotel but it was via an e-mail link on my confirmation so i've now contacted the hotel direct from thier web site ...quoteing my gold passport no.....so fingers crossed! ( or my son will be sleeping in the bath!!) Link to comment
chippy Posted July 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 Would you believe it...within 5 minutes of me re-mailing the request for 2 beds I had a reply to the 1st one( :) Sent 3 days ago)... stating they will do their best to accommodate my request but no guarantees. Link to comment
ufjoe21 Posted July 4, 2005 Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 the goldpassport won't help you because you didn't make this reservation directly thru HYATTyou have no guarantees about the bedding sorryummm what date is this trip? Link to comment
chippy Posted July 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2005 We arrive in Tampa July 22nd. Link to comment
chippy Posted August 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 Hi again,Just though i'd send an update of my trip.....we checked in at the Hyatt on July 22nd.....no mention of Priceline...gave us a lovely room with 2 double beds, it was overlooking the city as opposed the bay but it was still great.We then had a problem with our accommodation for our second week of our holiday (31st July -6th Aug)so I went back to Priceline UK to see if I could again book the Hyatt and using the same formula as above I booked the Hyatt for 4 nights from 1st August for Link to comment
