Newby... I've used Priceline before, but awhile ago. I'm looking at a weekend stay in DC 10/12-14, 4* in Capital Hill/Conv Center area (we'll be arriving by train and mostly walking.) I've heard October is busy and therefore more pricey. Any strategy and help on bidding range, starting bid, expected ending bid, etc. is welcome and much appreciated. I'm not seeing a lot of wins so far for that weekend to gauge by.

Thank you.

Welcome to BetterBidding!

If you haven't yet, please start by reading your messages.

So we don't suggest a strategy that goes higher than you're willing to pay, what is your maximum bid for this trip? Is the Convention Center-Capital Hill the only zone you're willing to accept OR are other centrally located zones acceptable as well? At the 4* level, in addition to the Convention Ctr - Capitol Hill zone, most typically find the White House-Downtown and Dupont Circle-Woodley Park zones to be convenient as well (the latter a little north of the 'downtown core' but a short metro ride to the sights and a preferable area due to the neighborhood feel and local bars/restaurants in the zone)

Thank you! We've been looking in the White House area too. I was concerned about he distance to Dupont Circle, but from what you've said the Metro will get us there easily from Union Station. In a perfect world, I'm hoping to stay at or below $100/nt. for a weekend stay. It looks like that's possible, at least, but opinions are welcome. If that's my goal, I'm wondering where to start. Naturally, I'm starting with 4*, but will also bid 3 1/2* as part of my progression of rebids if necessary.

Thoughts?

Thanks again.

I don't think that a 4* hotel at $100 or less is likely, but if you want to give it a try:
