spraga09 Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 I want to specifically target the above hotel for 11/23/2012 to 11/29/2012. The lowest rates i could find is $222/night $252 with taxes. I would like to pay no more than 200 with taxes. Any suggestions for strategies I may try?
thereuare Posted November 15, 2012 Report Posted November 15, 2012 You can't bid on a specific hotel when using PRICELINE, you have to be able to accept any hotel in the zone at the star level (or higher) that you choose. With HOTWIRE you can often take an educated guess as to what is being offered based upon the amenities associated with the property, but it's still a 'best guess' and no guarantees you will receive the hotel you're hoping for.Is there a 4* hotel offered in this zone within your budget when searching HOTWIRE? If so, what are the amenities associated with it?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.
