Priceline Hotel: Bidding Help for 5/18 - 5/20

[Lag5823]

I've been trying to get a good deal for New Orleans, either Downtown or French Quarter for 4 star. Figuring it was after Jazz fest, I thought I could get a deal. Any bidding tips? Should I bid over $100?

What would be your desired budget per night for this stay? What price have you gone up to at this point? There is a 4* in Downtown for $120 on HOTWIRE.

Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

I was hoping to get it under $100, but $120 sounds reasonable. I've gone up to $110, with no success. As for Hotwire, I'm only seeing a $149 a night for a 4 star, not the $120 you are mentioning.

I'm seeing a Downtown 4* for $121 now. Default of 2 adults, 0 children.

Hotwire offers can change pretty quickly. If you aren't seeing it when you read this, check back regularly.

Found the $121. Do you have any idea which hotel that could be?

Could you post the amenities listed with the hotel - they are needed for the detection process.

In the Hotwire - Louisiana area, right at the beginning, is a list of hotels members have reported to this board. I think there are about a half dozen known possibilities.

If you go back to HOTWIRE and click the SHOW ME button next to this offer (the one with the price in it), then on the ensuing page click the 'See all' link under the amenities, do you see more than what you've posted above? Using this method this is the complete list of amenities i'm seeing for this property when searching HOTWIRE for your dates:

Fitness

Pool

Restaurant

Business

Hi-Speed Internet

Tennis

Blind Accessible

Deaf Accessible

Travel Accessible

Room Accessible

Bathroom Accessible

Handicapped Parking

Roll-in Shower

... if this is what you're seeing, the Hilton Riverside has previously been seen with this amenity set and that would be my best guess for this one.

Thanks for using the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board.

Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.
