miali1020 Posted April 3, 2012 Report Posted April 3, 2012 I am looking for a 4* hotel on or near the strip and have tried the rebidding strategy and have come up short so far. I have tried for both 4* and 5*. I have bid up to 110 for 5* as well.Dates are 4/13/12-4/14/12any help I can get is very much appreciatedThanks
Romelle Posted April 3, 2012 Report Posted April 3, 2012 Are you looking for two nights or just one?Also, have you checked Hotwire for your dates (upper left hand corner)? You might see something there you'd like.Romelle
miali1020 Posted April 3, 2012 Author Report Posted April 3, 2012 We will only be there one night but I would like something near the strip. I know it's hard to do Friday night since people come there for a full weekend. I did find a good deal on HOTWIRE this morning for what likely would've been the Tropicana-Hampton Inn but unfortunately I think it went away this afternoon.
AaronJB Posted April 3, 2012 Report Posted April 3, 2012 Would be the Trump be an acceptable 5* possibility? Additionally, what would be your desired max budget per night, and what have you bid up to at the 4* level?Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
miali1020 Posted April 4, 2012 Author Report Posted April 4, 2012 If possible, I would like to stay away from the Trump, just from reading the mixed reviews on here and elsewhere. I have bid upto $68 for the 4* and $110 for 5*
thereuare Posted April 4, 2012 Report Posted April 4, 2012 What is your maximum bid at each star level? At current rates i'm guessing a 5* hotel will likely cost in the $150 area... a 4* hotel in the ~$100 area.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

miali1020 Posted April 4, 2012 Author Report Posted April 4, 2012 The highest I can go for 5* is 120. I am more comfortable with a 4* and was wondering how you got to the ~100 estimate.The board shows that some users have been able to get TI for significantly less than that.

miali1020 Posted April 9, 2012 Author Report Posted April 9, 2012 Just to follow up, my travelmate purchased the 3* Blackstone hotel for this trip. Thank you for your help and attention.
thereuare Posted April 9, 2012 Report Posted April 9, 2012 Was this thru PRICELINE or HOTWIRE... or thru a 'retail' channel?If the former, can you please provide the details of the purchase (star rating, city, zone, hotel, room rate, dates (and in the case of HOTWIRE the amenities shown before purchase))Thanks.

miali1020 Posted May 30, 2012 Author Report Posted May 30, 2012 Long overdue, but I believe it was thru Priceline and I don't think I will be able to get the details from him
