Heide Szeto Posted May 21, 2012 Report Posted May 21, 2012 Have to be in Toronto, Canada for a week in July and I am trying to figure out if it's more worth it to book a package through hotwire, or to purchase individually. For two people, the package starts at about $1000 per person. Airfare is about $700 a person.What are the going wins for Toronto for a 4 star hotel? I will need to stay there July 22 to July 28. Sorry, I'm a noob and this is my very first post and first time checking out the forum also. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

Heide Szeto Posted August 13, 2012 Author Report Posted August 13, 2012 The trip worked out quite well! I used PRICELINE's bidding link and won the Marriott Niagara Falls for $80 for a stay on 7/22. I didn't bid until 5 days before too :)I used some bonus cash for 7/26-7/29 that I had and ended up getting the Marriott Bloor Yowkville for $90 ($100 with +$10 bonus cash). Got that on one try, but had gotten this win about a month prior.I waited until last minute to try and get a hotel in Downtown South for 7/23-26. For some reason rates were way higher than usual on 7/23. I bid up to $110 and did not get anything. As a last resort, I ended up doing an airbnb for an entire home/place for 7/23-7/26. All in all, it worked out quite nice!
