Priceline Hotel: Too soon?

[darnel]

Is it too soon to be bidding for central Boston hotels July 19-22? I've bid up to $200 for 4-star and $170 for 3.5-star with no luck. Is something going on there that weekend that I don't know about? Any help would be very much appreciated!

Exactly which zones, by PRICELINE name, have you included in your bidding at each star level?

I bid for Beacon Hill, Boston Common-Theater District, Boston Harbor Front-Aquarium, Boston Waterfront-Convention Center, Copley Square-Back Bay, Quincy Market-Financial District for 4-star and 3.5-star. Thanks!

To give you an idea of what it might take, for Quincy Market Hotwire has a 4* at $201 and the 3* at $194.

You've got plenty of time. Maybe you could make a cancelable back-up reservation, and then just troll Priceline regularly? Priceline can run a little lower than Hotwire.

HOTWIRE has 4* hotels in the zone(s) that you bid for less than $200/nite...

What looks like the Omni Parker House for $197/nite and the Seaport hotel for $199/nite... do either of these work for your needs?
