Priceline Hotel: Need Bidding Help 9/16-9/18

[PupManS]

Hi- I could use some help with a bidding strategy. I'm heading to San Fran next weekend on a last-minute kind of thing.

1. Would prefer USE/USW, although any area in the city core would be fine. (IE not airport, San Mateo, etc)

2. Would prefer 4* although boutique usually works out well for me.

3. 9/16-9/18

4. Me and my girlfriend, so small rooms are ok.

5. Can go up to $160 per night, although posted rates are nuts right now....a lot of 250 and up.

Thanks!

Phillip

Welcome to BetterBidding!

At the 4* level you have four re-bid zones available (if you're not sure of your re-bid zones please ask for help before proceeding).

Select 4* USW...

Bid $90, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $100, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $110, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $120, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $130.

Select 4* USE...

Bid $90, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $100, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $110, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $120, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $130.

Select 4* USE and USW...

Bid $140, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $145, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $150, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $155, if rejected add re-bid zone...

Bid $160.

You can then repeat the above, substituting Boutique for 4*. Hotwire only shows one hotel available for these dates (a 3* at $181 so i think this is going to be a very tough win)

If the above fails let know exactly which other zones you're willing to bid and we'll suggest a strategy including those alternate zones.

Unfortunatly, none of the bidding strategies below worked for me.

I have reserved a cancellable place, and I think I might try again on Wednesday as I figure some of these conventioneers will probably cancel by then.

Thanks for your help anyhow!
