riley417 Posted March 22, 2012 Report Posted March 22, 2012 need help on getting a downtown 3 or 4 star hotel in downtown for 2 nights starting 3/13/12. I have bid up to $70 so far but I keep seeing others getting things in the $60 range...what am I doing wrong? thanks!!
AaronJB Posted March 23, 2012 Report Posted March 23, 2012 I'm guessing St Louis? (but please confirm.)Additionally, 3/13 has passed - do you mean 4/13? What would be your desired max budget per night?Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
riley417 Posted March 23, 2012 Author Report Posted March 23, 2012 sorry, yes St Louis. 4/13-15. Max would be $80 because with downtown parking and taxes that would put me way over $100 PER NIGHT
thereuare Posted March 24, 2012 Report Posted March 24, 2012 To confirm, when you bid up to $70 was that at the 4* or 3.5* level (or did you try both?)A quick look appears that rates are very expensive for these dates, do you know of any event(s) taking place in the city during this timeframe? What is the best rate you're able to find at an acceptable hotel?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

rwatts_83 Posted April 3, 2012 Report Posted April 3, 2012 There are St. Louis Cardinals games that weekend vs. the Cubs and it is opening weekend. Hotels have been booked for several weeks. Probably won't get anything downtown for $80 that weekend. The only thing comparable I have seen is $239 for 3 star hotel in downtown on Hotwire.
AaronJB Posted April 3, 2012 Report Posted April 3, 2012 Cubs/cards games generally cause significant traffic whether in STL or Chicago. Would there be any interest in looking into outlying areas, given the rates for these dates?Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
