Priceline Hotel: 4* New York City (Madison Square Garden - Convention) The Out NYC

[cbonk]

Hello. I m looking for a 4*1/2 in Chelsea, NY - from May 26 to May 28. As researched, I think it is the Dream Downtown Hotel. On its website the night costs U$305. Did anybody have a winning bid for this hotel? How much should I bid? I m using betterbidding links for PRICELINE.

Actually, I already tried as far as U$ 191... with no success

Welcome to BetterBidding!

Keep in mind that the 'retail' side of PRICELINE and the 'bidding' side use a different universe of hotels, so even if there is only one 4.5* hotel showing on the retail side when searching for your dates, there still could be others.

With the above noted, what would be your maximum bid for a 4.5* hotel in this zone for your dates? Is this the only zone you're willing to accept?

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

I'm really disapointed with nmy win. The price on booking.com is U$ 174, with no bidding. It's a gay hotel and I'm travelling ith my old parents that have walking limitation and it's far from the metro stop. As researched on betterbidding I was expecting Affinia  Hotel or Courtyard (U$ 115 and 161 previous wins)  I had used priceline other times successfully, butI will NEVER use it again. I feel very very sad and I think it is a threath!

LOL, sorry for for your experience. Saw a weekend price for $107/night recently and was about to book the hotel myself... until I found out it was a gay hotel located a relatively long walk from the nearest subway station (which was a surprise considering the central location). Priceline should perhaps consider no longer offering this hotel... the reality is there is a very large portion of the population uncomfortable staying at a gay hotel so probably not a good idea to have people bidding on a hotel like that without knowing what they're getting into LOL. The fact that the hotel is located on top of a loud nightclub makes it even worse...
