I can't get the same hotel to appear on my standard search for 2 adults. How many rooms/adults/children did you search for? Can you please run a new search and confirm that you still can see this hotel on your search.

I see a 3* $82 but I don't get any result for a 2.5*

I would like a pricing strategy for a hotel for the dates of 8/7-8/10 (3 nights) in the Frisco area, or possible Breckenridge. We would prefer to stay under $100 if possible! Also, and I know you can't choose amenities, but we would really like a pool and so maybe I should shoot for 3-4 stars. Would love an input.

After seeing travel pics of the nasty La Quinta, maybe I will raise my star level to 3.5 and up my price about $20. So 3.5 at $120 or below.

Please provide a follow-up for your prior Dallas Priceline thread (post what you decided for that stay within that thread, then reply to this thread and we would be happy to take a look and offer thoughts on the above stay.)

Done. I might add that yesterday I bid $70 and $75 (don't laugh), on Breck and Frisco, 3.5 stars. 4 stars not listed as an option. Rejected. I bid low as I was nervous.

[thereuare]

Can you please further reply to your Dallas hotel thread clarifying if you booked direct (or if it was a PRICELINE or HOTWIRE purchase).

For this Colorado trip, did you want to first try for a 4* up to your $120 limit, then if rejected try for a 3.5*... OR is the goal the least expensive 3.5* or better for this trip?

Please clarify and we'll suggest a strategy for you to follow.

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

[angelsteps51]

I would love a 4 star but do not believe there is one in Breck or Frisco according to PL when I bid yesterday. So I'll say least expensive 3.5.

...so maybe I should shoot for 3-4 stars.

I hadn't checked the star rating(s) myself yet... was only going by your original post.

Currently there are not any 3.5* hotels in the Dillon-Silverthorne-Frisco zone so if bidding 3.5* you'd be bidding for the Breckenridge zone only (but you can use Dillon/Sivlerthrone/Frisco as a re-bid zone).

I would start with:

Select 3.5* Breckenridge...

Bid $80, if rejected add Frisco...

Bid $85

If the above is rejected, repeat every 24 hours increasing your previous bids by $5 for the early bids and $3 for the later bids, as follows ($90/$95, $100/$105, $108/$110, $113/$115, $118/$120)

Any questions feel free to ask.

Good luck and let us know how it goes.

I found a 4* property in Beaver Creek for $128 per night plus resort fee. Dates are 8/7-8/10 of this year, 2 adults and 2 kids. I believe it is The Pines Lodge Rock Resort. However, the reviews for that property indicated kitchenettes, and these amenities do not. Also, the Pines is a 3.5 star and HW says this hotel is a 4 star, although I guess that is subjective.

Amenities:

Free Internet

Slopeside

Fitness Center

Pool(s)

Restaurant(s)

Golf Nearby

Accessible for the blind

Accessible path of travel

In-room accessibility

Accessible bathroom

Handicapped parking

Roll-in shower

Thank you!

The Pines has been seen with this amenity set previously so that would be my guess.

HOTWIRE listings do not list all amenities, and ratings can vary from service-to-service.

Thanks so much for the help. We decided to book a condo through an owner directly (did not use HW or PL) because I found a great deal, and most of the 'hotels' were condos anyway. I will use this site and your bidding tips to plan for another leg of our trip, in Colorado Springs. Thank you so much for your help.

Thank you for closing the thread.

Enjoy your stay.
