Priceline Hotel: 4* New York City (Empire State Building) The Strand Hotel

[zacwang]

I intends to bid for a 3* or 3.5* hotel at ESB, TS, MTW & Chelsea.

Cannot remember where I start the bid, shall be at around 60$ or 70$ something. My budget was about 230$~240$ per night at New York for this season. And as usual, use the re-bid zones for 5$ each for next bid. Finally, accepted by Priceline at 220$ and was so luckily to be upgraded to a 4* Hotel (The Strand Hotel) in ESB area.

I am not quite sure how The Strand Hotel looks like since initially it was not my target at all.

Anyway, 220$, finally is below my budget and I am happy with that. :P

Oh, BTW, I got this bid at 12th May and just have time today to post this win. Hope it could be of any help for others to bid the same or similar area...

Congratulations on your success!

Glad to see you're pleased with the results... we don't see this hotel appear too often as a win on PRICELINE or HOTWIRE.

Nearby on 14th St there is both a Whole Foods and a Trader Joe's if you need to pick up any supplies, snacks, drinks or breakfast foods for the morning.

Thank you for sharing your win with the board.

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

Enjoy your stay.
