Priceline Hotel: 5* Copenhagen bid rejected

[My Cat's Name is Bernie]

I started at $125/night. My most recent bid of $250/night ($315 including taxes and fees) was rejected. It's a shame since I see that Florida Sailor got it for $135 this past summer.

When I started the bidding process, many travel sites were offering the Copenhagen Marriott for $545/night including breakfast (Priceline's rate has no breakfast), but now most sites are showing it is sold out for my dates.

I have a cancellable reservation at Hotel d'Angleterre (a nicer hotel IMO) for $450/night, so I am unwilling to go much higher for (what is probably) the Marriott.

Do you think I might have better luck if I wait until closer to my departure date? Any other bidding advice would be gratefully appreciated.

I used the PRICELINE link from this site for all my bids.

Thanks for the help!

If there is something going on on these date/s in the area it's going to differ, but if otherwise a normal period I'd say you have some time to start lower again and try up to $250 once a week for a couple of months.

Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.

PRICELINE EXPRESS does have a 5* hotel for $397/nite if you want something cheaper than your back-up, but not sure if you want to save $50/nite for an 'opaque' purchase.

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