ilovepenang Posted June 13, 2013 Report Posted June 13, 2013 For priceline, how much should I start the bidding for? Thanks!
hohogap Posted June 13, 2013 Report Posted June 13, 2013 Are you locked into a 3 1/2* star rating for the hotel? What zone are you looking for? The 3 1/2* downtown hotel Express Deal is $162.00/night, plus taxes and fees. Priceline has a PRICELINE EXPRESS Deal for a 3* in the Airport zone for $123.00/night, plus taxes and fees. My guess would be the Millenium. I've stayed there before. It's fine, a bit older, but workable. That price isn't bad really for the summer high season. If you have time and want to take a risk, I usually try to bid PL "name your own price" at about 10-20% below the Express Deal price. Of course, the Express Deal can disappear, so that is a consideration. I don't see any cheaper rates on Hotwire, although they have a 4* downtown for $172.00. My guess would be the Sheraton, which is at the far end of downtown. Hope this helps, and be sure to use the BB Board's PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links above for all of your searches, bids and wins (hopefully)!
ilovepenang Posted June 13, 2013 Author Report Posted June 13, 2013 Thank you so much! I am arriving a day before my cruise starts, so I am looking for a hotel to stay. Not familiar with anchorage. I guess staying in downtown or airport area is totally fine. I will try PRICELINE for name my own price.
