KellJ Posted May 8, 2012 Report Share Posted May 8, 2012 Hello. This is the Tour De l'Ile weekend, and Hotwire is showing a 4.5* (likely Intercontinental) for $131, which is actually $161 with fees and taxes. I have a backup reservation at a decent B*B for a single night for $120/night (tax/fees inclus), and I'm trying for 4* in DT or Conv Center for two nights, but only if I can get two nights at a significantly lower cost. There are no winning Priceline bids or winning Hotwire deals posted for this period, so I'm shooting in the dark.I started in DT at $85 for 4*. Rejected. Added free bid zone and bid $90. Rejected. (With taxes, this is equal to $110 night)Closed browser.Opened and started in Convention Center at $85 for 4*. RejectedAdded free bid and bid $90. Rejected.Quit.I'll try again tomorrow and post results.KellJ Link to comment

robteb Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 This is also MUTEK weekend, an extremely large Electronic music festival, centred around the Hyatt/Place des Arts area, so vacancies may be quite low. Link to comment
