Priceline Hotel: 4* London (Regents Park - North London) London Marriott Hotel Maida Vale

[vanpoodle]

Okay, on my $60 win for the first part of this weekend where I burned $6.67 in bonus cash I TOTALLY overbid. Sigh. That's one reason why I like splitting up my stay as well, to see if I can get a better price that way. (I was thrilled last year when I got this hotel for $93).

So I went back in with a new bid, started at $55 and was offered a rebid at $66. Threw bids at the other zones I like up to $58, for Notting Hill, Bloomsbury, Mayfair and Westminster, all rejected. Went back to RP with one of those zones at $56, tried again with another zone and was accepted at $57. Utterly shocking. I was sure this process would take weeks like it has in the past. London seems to be great with Priceline, Sydney never worked for me, and other cities have had mixed results, but it really rocks for London. I don't think there is a Travelodge anywhere in North America that I could score for this price. It's a decent enough Marriott in London only a few tube stops from the action.

Oh, and this is Easter weekend, too, and I was sure I'd be looking at closer to $100.
