utvidguy Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 Just starting to look for deals in SF 9/16-9/20. I'm hoping to get a 4* for around $100 in Financial Dist/Embarcadero. I've seen a few of those winning bids at Le Meridien. And help would be appreciated.Thanks,Russ

AaronJB Posted September 10, 2013 Report Posted September 10, 2013 Unfortunately, rates are quite high for these dates - HOTWIRE is showing a 4* in the Financial District for $346, a 4* in USE for $303 and a few other 3-3.5* listings in USE/USW between $250-300. $100 for a 4* may be possible by the airport, but for core areas of the city, I think you're probably looking at $225-250 +/-.Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
utvidguy Posted September 11, 2013 Author Report Posted September 11, 2013 Thanks. Definitely out of my price range. I'll keep searching.
thereuare Posted September 11, 2013 Report Posted September 11, 2013 As $100 doesn't seem realistic for a 4* downtown hotel for these dates, what is your current maximum bid? What is your back-up plan?Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

utvidguy Posted September 11, 2013 Author Report Posted September 11, 2013 I'm willing to go to $175. Honestly, the backup plan is AirBnB. There are lots of choices around $150 for studios and apartments close to downtown, which gives us a lot more space.
thereuare Posted September 11, 2013 Report Posted September 11, 2013 If you can find something equivalent to a 4* hotel for $150 you should take it as current rates are not anywhere near that... more than likely you would be looking at a 3.5* hotel in the USW zone for ~$175/nite.If your back-up plan(s) fall thru and you find rates for these dates are higher then expected let us know and we'll explore your options.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

utvidguy Posted September 17, 2013 Author Report Posted September 17, 2013 Hey guys, I'm back on this thread with a new itinerary. I was able to find a small studio for 3 nights in Union Square area, but can't get in until tomorrow. What PRICELINE area would I have to try to find something for tonight (9/16) for one night, for less than $150? I just used the PRICELINE link to start my search.

utvidguy Posted September 17, 2013 Author Report Posted September 17, 2013 Bid $125 for 4* in Union Square East - Nob Hill. Won Hotel Adagio Autograph Collection on first try. Guess I should have started lower, but the room is super nice, and for the price I wanted. Got a Grand King corner room on 12th floor. Awesome views out of 2 sides of room. Win Win!
