themarshmalo Posted May 21, 2012 Report Posted May 21, 2012 Would that I could go back in time and NOT decide to take fun, breezy weekend in San Francisco the same weekend as the Gay Pride parade and weekend events!Ugh. I started at $160 in Union Square East with 4 stars - offer rejected and added Union Square West, SOMA, and the Financial District as I continued to increase my rate and lower my rate to 3 1/2 stars and 3 stars.The last go-round I bid $185 and was rejected, then Priceline let me know I could increase my rate to $225 and they would let me re-bid immediately.I looked at Hotwire and rates were about $250 - $300 per night. I chose to re-bid immediately and (surprise!) received the rate. $225 at Monaco San Francisco, a Kimpton Hotel, in Union Square West, Nob Hill (heh heh).Lesson: look at the calendar before you book.I used the PRICELINE link, of course!
AaronJB Posted May 21, 2012 Report Posted May 21, 2012 Congrats on your success. :)Sorry to hear this period is so expensive, but a nice result for this Kimpton property (and free social wine hour at night.)Thank you for sharing your win and using the site's PRICELINE or HOTWIRE links to start your purchases and searches.Enjoy your stay.
