casperslc Posted February 21, 2013 Report Share Posted February 21, 2013 So, now I am looking for a hotel in Boston on Sunday July 7. Price is more important than stars but I think I should try for the best price and star level possible. I would like to be around 75 - 85 dollars and a 3 star is fine unless you think I have any type of a chance at 3.5. These are the areas that I would like to stay in:Back baySouth BostonSeaport / Conference CenterQuincy MarketBoston CommonFenwayHarbor frontCambridge EastCambridge WestThanks! Link to comment
thereuare Posted February 22, 2013 Report Share Posted February 22, 2013 Back baySouth BostonSeaport / Conference CenterQuincy MarketBoston CommonFenwayHarbor frontCambridge EastCambridge WestCurrently the highest rated hotel in the Fenway zone is 2* so we will not include that i a bidding strategy.When bidding 3* in Boston you have ONE re-bid zone. 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 3* Back Bay, South, Seaport, Quincy Market...Bid $55, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $60, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3* Boston Common, Harbor Front, Cambridge East, Cambridge West...Bid $55, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $60, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3* Boston Common, South, Seaport, Quincy Market...Bid $63, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $65, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3* Back Bay, Harbor Front, Cambridge East, Cambridge West...Bid $63, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $65, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3* Back Bay, Harbor Front, Seaport, Quincy Market...Bid $68, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $70, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3* Boston Common, South, Cambridge East, Cambridge West...Bid $68, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $70, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3* Back Bay, South, Cambridge East, Quincy Market...Bid $73, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $75, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3* Boston Common, Harbor Front, Seaport, Cambridge West...Bid $73, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $75, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3* Back Bay, South, Seaport, Cambridge West...Bid $78, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $80, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3* Boston Common, Harbor Front, Cambridge East, Quincy Market...Bid $78, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $80, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINESelect 3* Back Bay, South, Seaport, Cambridge West, Boston Common, Harbor Front, Cambridge East, Quincy Market...Bid $83, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $85You could try all of the above at the 3.5* level first, then if rejected close the browser, use this link to re-access PRICELINE, and try again at the 3* level... but i think your chances of a 3.5* at $85 or less are slim, and a 3* at this price may even be difficult too!Any 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.
