chantomc Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Looking for bidding help for 3 rooms on 9/2 (1 night) 4* in San Diego Coastal region. I can get the Hyatt La Jolla for $149/night through a friend. Given that 9/2 is the Friday before Labor Day weekend, will I get any hits for less than $149 (3 rooms)? Link to comment
thereuare Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 Rates don't look too bad and i would try as follows:You have seven re-bid zones when bidding 4* in the Coastal zone. If you're not familiar with re-bidding feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.Select 4* Coastal...Bid $75, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $80, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $85, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $90, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $95, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $100, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $105, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $110.Good Luck and let us know how it goes.

chantomc Posted August 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Thanks for the tip. I got the Hyatt Islandia for $100 (3 rooms).Bid $75, rejectedBid $85, rejectedBid $95, rejectedBid $100, acceptedDo you think I could get near the same rate and hotel for 9/27-9/29? I have a regular reservation at the Hyatt La Jolla for $92, but I prefer the Islandia. I'd be willing to pay up to $110.BTW - I noticed I posted on the hotwire side. I'll post my winning priceline bid on the priceline side. Thanks for your help. We are very happy with the Islandia for $100. We stayed there last year. Link to comment
thereuare Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Congratulations on your win!Glad it worked out well for you and you received a hotel that you are happy with (and saved some money too!).I wouldn't recommend bidding for 9/27-9/29 as you could just as easily get the Hyatt La Jolla for a rate more than you are currently paying. Not sure where you got that $92/nite rate but it seems pretty cheap for that property.Enjoy your stay.
