Canada2012 Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 What would the average bid amount be for a 4* or 3.5* hotel for NYE? I seen Michael's Inn for $187 and Days Inn & Suites for $190 on Hotels.com and Expedia.com. Wondering what those would even go for to bid on PRICELINE Link to comment
thereuare Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 The hotels you mention above are 2* rated by PRICELINE so they are meaningless if you're looking to bid 3.5* or 4*.You're likely looking in the $250 area for a 3.5* or 4* hotel for New Years Eve (assuming just the solo nite of 12/31).. what would your maximum budget be for a room for this holiday nite?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Canada2012 Posted August 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 From remembering last year the rates were up in the $400-$500 a night range for 3.5 and up on Hotels.com and Expedia.ca. So I guess I would go $250-$300? Link to comment
AaronJB Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 HOTWIRE has a 4* for $276;I'm guessing you're probably looking at $240-260 for a 4*, although I'd start lower and work up to those levels.Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

thereuare Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Did you want to first try for a 4* hotel up to $300? up to $250? before trying for a 3.5*... OR is the goal the least expensive 3.5* or better for this trip?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Canada2012 Posted August 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Being NYE I am not caring to have something so high end at a high rate, will hardly be in the room but no dump.. So let's go with least expensive 3.5* or better for the trip. Link to comment
thereuare Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 When bidding 3.5* in Niagara Falls you have THREE re-bid zones. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.(NOTE: 're-bid zone1' is not the same as priceline's Zone1, 're-bid zone2' is not the same as priceline's Zone2, etc, etc)Select 3.5* Niagara Falls...Bid $150, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $170, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINE...Select 3.5* Niagara Falls and re-bid zone2...Bid $180, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $190, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINE...Select 3.5* Niagara Falls and re-bid zone3...Bid $195, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $200, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINE...Select 3.5* Niagara Falls and re-bid zone2 and re-bid zone3...Bid $205, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $210If the above is rejected wait 24 hours and re-try, once again starting with this PRICELINE link on the board:Select 3.5* Niagara Falls...Bid $215, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $220, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINE...Select 3.5* Niagara Falls and re-bid zone2...Bid $225, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $230, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINE...Select 3.5* Niagara Falls and re-bid zone3...Bid $235, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $240, if rejected close browser and use this link to re-access PRICELINE...Select 3.5* Niagara Falls and re-bid zone2 and re-bid zone3...Bid $245, if rejected add re-bid zone1...Bid $250Any questions feel free to ask.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Good luck and let us know how it goes.
