SaintTaris Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 I am having a very diffifult time finding a bargain on a 4* hotel near Dulles. I live in the area and I usually have pretty good luck finding a 4* in the neighborhood of $80-$90. The dates I'm looking for are 9-12 Jun. Please help. Link to comment

SaintTaris Posted June 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Dulles North (Herndon) Dulles South (Chantilly) I've been at it for a few days now, rebidding every 24 hours. Link to comment
thereuare Posted June 4, 2014 Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 If you search using our sister site MAPS and HOTELS.com, and filter for only 4* hotels, the least expensive 4* hotel is currently selling for over $200+ per nite, which i assume is a bit higher than usual, and therefore it would be reasonable to expect these dates to require a bid a bit higher than usual (looks like something happening in DC, where rates are even higher, and Dulles is getting the overflow?) With the above noted, i do think you can be successful a bit higher than you have already bid, somewhere in the $90-$110 area, are you willing to bid higher for these dates OR is this an option stay that you will cancel if not at $90 or less?

SaintTaris Posted June 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 The dates are set in stone. I guess I have no choice but to bid higher. I may have to consider a 3.5 or 3* at this point. Link to comment
thereuare Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 The 4* option i previously saw in the $90-$110 range is no longer offered... HOTWIRE currently has a 3* in the Chantilly - Dulles Intl Airport IAD South for $83/nite with: Free Parking Complimentary Breakfast Free Internet Pet Friendly Indoor Pool Shuttle Fitness Pool Business Hi-Speed Internet ... my best guess for this one would be the Wingate by Wyndham Chantilly Dulles Airport. PRICELINE EXPRESS has a 3.5* in the Dulles South - Chantilly for $115/nite but the discount link and code in my signature can take this down to $109/nite/ There are no amenities shown to be associated with this property, so i don't have any insight into which one this may be. Do either of these options work for your needs, or if you'd like help with a bidding strategy, let us know your desired star rating and maximum bid at that star level and we'll suggest a strategy for you to follow.
