jl2117 Posted September 25, 2012 Report Posted September 25, 2012 Priceline's list price for Loews for our dates was $229. Since I had $7 bonus dollars per night from a promotion, I decided to start my bids at $84 for a $91 net bid (roughly 60% off list price) in the Midtown zone only.It took several attempts using one dollar increments and adding zones without four-star hotels in them before Priceline accepted my $93 ($100 net) bid. I never had to add another 4-star zone.I'm very happy since Loews was my #1 target.The best pre-paid price I had found over a couple weeks of looking was $155 and the cheapest fully refundable rate was almost $200. That means I saved at least $200 over the course of the stay by using Priceline.Here's the summary:Summary of ChargesRoom Cost (avg. per room, per night):$93.00 (USD)Number of Rooms: 1Number of Guests Per Room: 2Number of Nights: 3Room Subtotal: $279.00 (USD)Taxes and Fees: $57.87 (USD)Total Room Cost: $336.87 (USD)(All prices are in US dollars)
