Priceline Hotel: 5* Milan The Westin Palace Milan

[ElPal]

Hi,

I already have a booking which I made through your links and reported to the board last year for this coming 5-7 April which ended up being the Westin Palace in Milan.

I am looking to add an extra night to the stay and have looked but the hot deal has different amenities although I suspect it is probably still the correct hotel.

These are the amenities:

Pet friendly

Fitness Center

Restaurant(s)

Business Center

High-Speed Internet Access

Spa Services

Accessible for the blind

Accessible for the deaf

Accessible path of travel

What do you think? Ideally I'd like to end up in the same hotel as the rest of our stay.

I used your links and continued to methodically work my way through the rebid zones by closing out and reusing your links to go back in each time.

After getting the suggested $119 to have the room now counter-bid from Priceline, I knew that that was the sort of price that they were looking for and just kept going.

I bid as follows:

Choose more than one area in Milan, Italy to improve your chances.

1. Northeast Milan 5* $80 - REJECTED, closed out and went back in via your link

2. Assago Forum + Northeast Milan 5* $85 REJECTED, COUNTER-BID $119, closed out and went back in via your link

3. Linate airport + Northeast Milan 5* $87 REJECTED, COUNTER-BID $119, closed out and went back in via your link

4. Milan Malpensa + Northeast 5* $90 $87 REJECTED, COUNTER-BID $119, closed out and went back in via your link.

5. Milano Due + Northeast 5* $95 REJECTED, COUNTER-BID $119, closed out and went back in via your link

6. Northwest Milan + Northeast 5* $97 REJECTED, COUNTER-BID $119, closed out and went back in via your link

7. Sesto + Northeast 5* and $100 REJECTED, COUNTER-BID $119, closed out and went back in via your link

8. Southwest Milan + Northeast 5* $102 REJECTED, COUNTER-BID $119, closed out and went back in via your link

9. Duomo + Northeast 5* (I had forgotten there was no 5* in Duomo on Priceline) $105 - ACCEPTED!!!

I am glad that I managed to:

1) get a bid accepted at less than their counter-bid of $119

2) get a bid accepted at less than their express deal which was also $119

3) able to get a room in the same hotel as my hotwire booking which I made months ago and for not that much more per night.

Thanks again for your forums. I hope that my use of your links helps in some way!

Would you like to add a night before or after your regular stay?

I can't find your posted win for this stay. Did you book with PRICELINE or HOTWIRE? Can't you just extend your stay with any of the services?

Enjoy your stay.
