Priceline Hotel: help getting the right hotel

[Jneftleberg]

I would like to stay at Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress

first is this a 4 star hotel or is it a resort? And if possible could someone steer me in a correct way to have the best shot at this hotel useing priceline name your own price. I think i understand the free rebid system, it is correct that i can rebid as long as i never duplicate the same zones right. thanks for your time James

I'm sure thereuare will chime in here, but there is no way to guarantee this hotel on priceline. It's not possible, and PL doesn't work that way.

If you want to stay there and get a better price, try to ID it on Hotwire or LastMinuteTravel.com.

If you can't do that, you might have to just book it conventionally and try to get an advantageous rate through AAA or an advance purchase rate on their website.

Welcome to BetterBidding!

You can't bid on a specific hotel when using PRICELINE, you have to be able to accept any hotel in the zone at the star level (or higher) that you choose. With HOTWIRE you can often take an educated guess as to what is being offered based upon the amenities associated with the property, but it's still a 'best guess' and no guarantees you will receive the hotel you're hoping for. As well, HOTWIRE only shows one hotel at each star level per zone, so there is a chance the hotel you're hoping for isn't the one which is offered for your particular dates.

Let us know how you'd like to proceed and we'll take it from there.
