Sunflower_77 Posted November 8, 2012 Report Posted November 8, 2012 Hi,Hope you can help with a bidding strategy for Priceline.I'm travelling to NYC for 11/17-11/18. Interested in trying to get a 4* star in MTE, MTW or Times Square area. I have a maximum budget in mind of $150 a night.Many thanks in advance for your help.
thereuare Posted November 8, 2012 Report Posted November 8, 2012 At current rates i think that $150 may come up a bit short for a 4* hotel, but if you want to give it a try:When bidding 4* in NYC you have SIX re-bid zones. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.Select 4* MTE and MTW...Bid $115, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $120, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $123, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $125, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $128, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $130, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $133, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINESelect 4* TS...Bid $115, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $120, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $123, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $125, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $128, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $130, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $133, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINESelect 4* MTE, MTW, TS...Bid $135, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $138, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $140, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $143, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $145, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $148, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $150Any questions feel free to ask.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Good luck and let us know how it goes.

Sunflower_77 Posted November 12, 2012 Author Report Posted November 12, 2012 My bid was accepted (using your PRICELINE link) for Kitano New York Hotel @ $180. I am not sure if Kitano is really a 4* property, but very happy with the result. Thanks for the help!
thereuare Posted November 12, 2012 Report Posted November 12, 2012 Congratulations on your success! Reviews for this property are generally quite positive and almost all online agencies that i could see rate this property 4 stars, not sure why you consider it to be less than that. Hopefully it will live up to your expectations of a 4* property and you'll enjoy your stay.Thank you for sharing your win and using the PRICELINE links on the board to begin your bidding.
