That's one of my favorite hotels. I love the location and it's a 4 star hotel you can get into pretty cheap sometimes.

How can you be sure to get this hotel if someone else does this behind you/is there a chance another hotel of the same will accept?

Jen G,

Welcome to BetterBidding!

If you haven't yet, please start by reading your messages.

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. Even if you bid for the same exact dates as the OP, this hotel was won over 10 days ago and inventory may have changed since then... this hotel may have sold-out or pulled all of their deeply discounted inventory, another hotel in the zone may be offering inventory at the same or lower price as this one, the above could have been the last room available at this rate, etc, etc.

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.

If you'd like help with an upcoming stay please start a NEW TOPIC for your own trip and we will be happy to assist you there.

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Thanks.

Newbie, any 4 star hotel in the Priceline downtown zone should be fine. And by the way, on Hotwire both sides of Canal Street (and therefore, that hotel) now appear to be in their "French Quarter" zone, in case you still want to get into that particular hotel.
