smelliemellie Posted March 30, 2013 Report Posted March 30, 2013 HiLooking at 4 star hotels for 5 nights in October, am i looking too far ahead? are the prices going to be higher now compared to later??Max $180/night - ESB, TS, Chelsea & Hell's KitchenAm i able to get anything?
AaronJB Posted March 30, 2013 Report Posted March 30, 2013 Welcome to Betterbidding.The issue is that September-early December is generally the busiest time of the year, at least traditionally. I have seen some instances in recent years of people getting good deals in advance and rates rise as it gets into the period. There is no way to know what rates for these date/s will do between now and October, but if past years are any indication, I'd be persistent in trying to lock something in.Is your max $180 + taxes/fees or $180 "all-in"? I think TS is going to be unlikely, but I think there's a chance that you may be able to get something in the $155-175 range, especially in MTE (you didn't list that as an acceptable zone, but given that it neighbors ESB, would that be acceptable?) HOTWIRE has a 4* in MTE for $185.Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
smelliemellie Posted March 30, 2013 Author Report Posted March 30, 2013 Thanks for your reply.We are already staying in MTE for a few nights prior the dates i've listed in my initial post.My max would be $180 + tax/fees
thereuare Posted March 31, 2013 Report Posted March 31, 2013 Any chance you could extend your previous stay to the nite of the 24th, as it may be easier to bid all weekend nites of 10/25-10/28 (Fri-Mon) as opposed to including the Thursday nite. Doesn't necessarily mean that you'll be successful now with a $180 bid, but i do think bidding Fri-Mon would improve improve your chances vs. Thur-Monday.Also, although you're already staying in the MTE prior to these nites, given this is a 'high-season' for NYC i would book this Roosevelt NYC for $195/nite as it's fully refundable (always confirm the terms during the booking process) up until a few days before your stay... at least this way you're protected should rates only rise from this point forward.Where, and for how much and which dates, are you stay the nites prior to the dates in this thread?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

AaronJB Posted April 9, 2013 Report Posted April 9, 2013 This would be a possible match for the Doubletree Financial.Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
