xenway Posted March 9, 2012 Report Posted March 9, 2012 I just tried a moment ago for 3* in San Francisco Downtown area for the date 31/3~3/4.1. start 70$ choose Civic Center area and failed2. start 75$ and add Financial District and failed3. start 80$ and add Union Square and failed4. start 85$ and add Union Square West and failedI am wondering whether because it is *Easter Holiday* that the hotel price goes so high? Or the price is normal for 3* hotel? Is there anyone who can provide some strategy for me for better bidding? Thanks in advanced!!
thereuare Posted March 10, 2012 Report Posted March 10, 2012 Welcome to BetterBidding!Please start by reading your messages.Were you bidding the Civic Center South-Hayes Valley zone or the Japan Town - Civic Center North zone? HOTWIRE has what i'm guessing to be the Hotel Carlton (in PRICELINE's (Japantown - Civic Center North) for $86/nite... would this work for your plans?If not, are you willing to increase your maximum bid?

xenway Posted March 10, 2012 Author Report Posted March 10, 2012 Hi thereuare,Thanks for your reply :)I suppose $86 is fine for me. I go to the HOTWIRE and search, which one is you specified? Hotel Carlton? Thanks.
thereuare Posted March 10, 2012 Report Posted March 10, 2012 I'm not currently seeing it any more when searching HOTWIRE for your dates.If you change the currency drop down menu on the top right of HOTWIRE's page to US Dollars (and if applicable the country to United States), do you then see a 3* hotel in the (Japantown - Civic Center North) with only Boutique and Internet amenities listed?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

xenway Posted March 10, 2012 Author Report Posted March 10, 2012 Hi thereuare,Thanks! I found it. Is it the 82$ one? Do you think this price is reasonable for this period and quality? Can I use priceline to get lower price? Thanks.
