Priceline Hotel: 4* Vancouver (Dwtn) Nov 15-18Stratgey Please

[diamant]

Looking to stay downtown,. the conference im going to is at the pan pacific so that area would be ideal . i will do 4 or 5 star. as everything on Expedia is expensive.

so tips on getting the pan pacific

HOTWIRE has two 5* hotels downtown. One has a kitchenette so probably is La Grande Residence. The other could be either the Pan Pacific or Sutton Place (or some other 5*). If it looks possible and you post back here with the list of amenities, the experts can give you an educated guess as to what you might get.

With PRICELINE bidding, people have reported getting the Pan Pacific as a 4*. But there also are reports of eight other 4*s. There is no way to target a specific hotel when bidding. I guess that makes your odds about 1 in 9?

I'm assuming you meant Miami South Beach when you said "..didnt take the vancouver trip."?

I'm assuming the $170 is specifically for the Pan Pacific... are you willing to pay $170 for any 4* hotel or higher in the zone?
