Priceline Hotel: 4* New York City (Midtown West) Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel

[Got Haggis?]

Was originally using dates 11/7-11/10 for this:

Started withthe following areas: Central Park South, Midown East, Midtown West, SoHo started at $140 - 3 1/2 - denied

Expanded area to include the above areas and Empire State building area and central park south, upped bid to $150 - denied

Expanded area to include Financial District - kept star level at 3 1/2 stars - upped bid to $155, denied

Upped bid to $158, same areas and changed dates to 11/7-11/9 - bid accepted by the Sheraton NYC

It is possible I could have gotten a better price had I started over with new dates.

Congratulations on your success!

Hope you're pleased with the results and this property will work well for your plans this trip.

While this is a very good rate for this time of year, it is possible that you could have gotten a better deal by starting over/lower when you changed dates as rates for these dates may have been lower than rates for the dates you were original bidding.

Thank you for sharing your win with the board.

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

Enjoy your stay.

PS- can you please follow-up your previous Priceline San Francisco thread with whatever you ended up doing for that trip. Even if you canceled the trip, booked direct, etc. it helps keep the board better organized and more useful for everyone, as well as is a courtesy to anyone who took the time to help with that trip. Thanks.
