Priceline Hotel: Need Help - 4* NYC

[HA1984]

Hello,

i need help with bidding for a 4* Hotel in NYC.

We are staying there from 15.02.14 to 24.02.14

Preferred areas are TSQ and MTW (Sheraton Hotel and Towers).

Maybe the time for the stay is too long but we also would stay in 2 Hotels.

Our price ceiling is 150 $ per night.

Can anybody help ?

Thank you in advance :)

Greetings, Heike

Please follow-up your previous Hotwire Orlando thread with whatever you ended up doing for that trip, then reply to this thread and we will have a look at your post above.

Please remember to follow-up your threads with whatever you end up doing for the stay, even if you choose to book direct, cancel your trip, etc.

I think you have a decent chance of landing a hotel for your complete stay in the TS or MTW zone, but your best deal would seem to be in the MTE zone... PRICELINE EXPRESS has a 4* hotel (Pets Allowed, Business Center, Fitness Center) for your dates for just $114/nite.

Do you want to include MTE in your bidding (and use a maximum bid of $114/nite) OR do you prefer to pay a bit more and only bid the MTW and TS zones up to $150?

Let us know how you'd like to proceed and we'll advise accordingly.

mmmhhh... do you maybe know which Hotel that could be ?? The Roosevelt ??

I just had a look on hotwire and there is also a 4* Hotel in the TSQ Zone for 149 $. Which hotel could that be and is it possible to underbid it with priceline ?

My guess for the PRICELINE EXPRESS property would be the Doubletree Metropolitan.

Since this an extended stay you could see if this same property is offered for the first (or last) nite of your stay and then again for the balance. If so, you could purchase the solo nite in order to 'look behind the curtain'. If you're happy with the results purchase the remaining nites, if not, make alternate plans for the balance of your stay.

For help with the HOTWIRE Times Square property please include the amenities that are associated with that offer.

Thanks.

The amenities for the Hotwire times square property are: Pet friendly, Fitness Center, Restaurant(s), Business Center and Internet access.

Thank you :)

I believe there are more amenities then what you have posted above as HOTWIRE has a new interface that does not show the complete set of amenities unless you click thru a few extra links.

NOTE that to see the complete amenities associated with each you will need to do the following:

1) search HOTWIRE and select the offer from the search results page

2) click the BOOK NOW button

3) in the TRIP SUMMARY BOX click the 'See more' link at the end of the amenities

Using the method above do you also see a Roll-in Shower associated with this property? If this is the same property you're seeing there are too many possibilities as these amenities are quite common in NYC... the Royalton, Doubletree Times Square, Crowne Plaza, Hilton Times Square, Millenium Broadway would all be likely candidates, and i wouldn't be surprised if there were other realistic possibilities as well.

Let us know what you decide and how it goes or if we can be of further help.

I'm not currently seeing this property offered when searching HOTWIRE for your dates... are you still seeing the above on your own search?
