can I can a room for 4 (2 double beds) on Priceline?

Hi! We are going to a wedding in Napa and we want to put 4 people in a room with 2 double beds. Is there a away to insure we get 2 doubles instead of one king using Priceline or are their bookings only for two people? TKS! Claire

Sorry, they will only guarantee sleeping space for two on PL. People have been known to risk it and request two beds after booking, but it IS a fairly substantial risk. The hotel is not obligated in any way to honor your request. If they have space, they may do it. But if they're busy, you're SOL.

If sleeping space for 4 is necessary, it is better to go with HW, Travelocity secret hotels or lastminutetravel.com.

PRICELINE only guarantees two adults/1 bed. One can request two beds from the hotel, but the hotel could say no or charge more. Overall, two beds is a risk with PRICELINE and it could even come down to who you may speak with at the hotel or a particular day (someone may have success getting two beds with a PRICELINE reservation the week prior, but you may not.) HOTWIRE is a better choice in this case, as you can indicate the amount of people in the room (which is not possible on PRICELINE) and ensures some form of bedding (two beds or 1 + sofabed) for the amount of people in the party.

What are your date/s of travel and desired budget per night?
