Omnipotent Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Put the following bids in:Westminster - 5 Star - $150Westminster & Mayfair - Soho - 5 & 4 Star - $150 - $250No dice on any. I closed my browser and reopened and got it to let me rebid several times. Also added in Hammersmith to see to get more bids but nothing. Link to comment
yellowdog Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Welcome to BetterBidding :) Sorry to see that you don't hit anything. But rates are high for your dates. I belive you're looking at $300+ when it comes to a 5* and with some luck around $200 for a 4*What is your budget 5* vs 4*? Is Mayfair and Westminister the only zones you want to stay in?Please note that Hammersmith got 4* bidding so you can hit in this zone.Let us know and we'll go from there.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your purchases and searches.Yellowdog.

vanpoodle Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Yikes! Is Hammersmith back to being a re-bid zone? Two weeks ago it had a 4* so wasn't good for re-bidding.I haven't stayed in those zones in ages because they are so expensive. Have you considered at least adding in Bloomsbury because it borders those zones? This is why I've been staying at Regent's Park, for the past few months their go-to has been a pair of Marriotts with great tube access to the city, one at Swiss Cottage and the other at Kilburn Park.
