Hotwire Hotel: 4* Singapore (Singapore - Orchard) Traders Hotel, Singapore

I'm bidding for three days now, now luck so far. Well, the bid isn't easy: I'm looking for three rooms (family of six), so PRICELINE isn't that easy. I started with my bidding for the 5* with $ 80 up to $ 120 with no luck, same for my 4*-bid.

In HOTWIRE I see several options: 4* $ 125/night with amenities free WiFi and free parking (no idea which hotel that could be), a 4.5* for $ 141/night (free WiFi, free parking, smoke-free, pool, restaurant, fitness, internet; tripadvisor 4.5 out of 5) both on Orchard, and a 4* $ 112/night in Chinatown/Financial District with free parking, free internet, indoor pool, fitness, restaurant (could be Holiday Inn Atrium).

Our budget is about $ 100/night and room, but given the fact it's Christmas, we might need to adapt.

If anyone has some tips for a good deal, let me know. Otherwise, I keep trying my bidding-strategy with PRICELINE and keep have a look at the prices at HOTWIRE. And of course, I'm always using the links here…

I'm switching between two separate requests: for the 5* I'm bidding Bugis (as according to PL has the lowest median price) using all eight free re-bid zones before adding Orchard and City Hall. For the 4* it's a bit different because I want to avoid Airport, Novena and East Coast. So far I also excluded Riverside as I'm quite sure I'd get the Holiday Inn Atrium which is a good hotel (stayed there before) but not so conveniently located. I usually start with Bugis, then adding the three free re-bid zones before hitting on Orchard, City Hall, Financial.

If you're only bidding the Burgis zone at the 5* level, at current rates i don't think you're close at $120/nite and you're likely looking closer to $200/nite.

For the 4* can you please listing the zones you are willing to accept (rather than the ones you are not willing to accept) as i couldn't determine from your post above exactly which zones you were including.

HOTWIRE has a 4* hotel in the Orchard Road zone for $112/nite, only showing Free Parking and Free Internet. It has not yet been reported to the board, but it does have a 4.0/5.0 TA rating should that, and the price, be enough to sway you.

I really don't have much insight into this one... the Traders Hotel would be on possibility, but the Concorde Hotel and/or Goodwood Park hotel would seem to be among possible candidates as well.

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

Let us know whatever you decide to do for this stay or if we can be of further help.

My guess was right: It's the Traders Hotel Orchard. I went with HOTWIRE - using the helpful link on this board - and got the Traders Hotel Singapore for $ 112/night, total $ 1669 all inclusive. A huge saving compared to direct booking ($ 2389). I'm very happy with this deal and pretty confident, that PRICELINE would have not worked that well for my needs.

Moderator: please update the thread title and move it to the appropriate forum. Thanks for everything, always a pleasure using this helpful site!
