gavriel85 Posted January 23, 2014 Report Posted January 23, 2014 Hi there, We're (a couple) visiting new york first time, and we really want the Element hotel I Hope to get it on 110$ What would be a realistic priceline price For our dates?and what strategy would I choose ?
AaronJB Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 Welcome to Betterbidding. :)There is no way to bid for a particular hotel - if you bid for a star rating and area (for example, 3.5* Times Square) you have to be willing to accept *any* hotel at that star rating or higher in that zone.Are you willing to accept other properties or are you only looking for the Element?Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
gavriel85 Posted January 24, 2014 Author Report Posted January 24, 2014 I prefer the elementbut let me know which hotel I can get and if I want only element what should I do?
thereuare Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 but let me know which hotel I can getYou can see all hotels reported to the board in the Priceline Hotel List for New York and the Hotwire Hotel List for New York... be sure to read the comments at the top of each to understand that their limitations.and if I want only element what should I do?Use this link to book from a non-opaque service.As i just posted in another thread, the deep discounts often seen on the board are in exchange for giving up the choice of the specific hotel that you will receive. If you are only interested in one hotel and not willing to accept anything different, then the opaque providers may not be the best option for this trip.Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases. (or the links in our Support Page if you decide to book direct)Let us know what you decide and how you would like to proceed or if we can be of further help.

gavriel85 Posted January 24, 2014 Author Report Posted January 24, 2014 I want any hotel 3.5* in hell's kitchen areacould you give me strategy
thereuare Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 Is Hell's Kitchen the only zone you're willing to accept? I think $110 (please confirm that this is your maximum bid) may be tough for a 3.5* hotel for in only this zone (or possibly in nearby zones as well), but adding more zones no only gives more hotels the opportunity to accept your bid price, but also let's you do more complex bidding strategies (both of which help in obtaining the best price)Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.Let us know know how you'd like to proceed and we'll take it form there.
