Priceline Hotel: 3* Seattle Downtown

[yoshidwyn]

Hello I am using Price.line nyop for the first time and came across this site when looking for assistance. I am trying to get a hotel in downtown seattle from the dates  of 7/3/14-7/8/14. I am trying to get my hotel cost to 125-150. what is the best way to get such a rate using the PRICELINE nyop any help will be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to Betterbidding. :)

In terms of total cost, are you looking for $150 "all-in" as a max (with taxes/fees included) or $150 + taxes/fees as a max? I think you may be able to get a hotel towards the very top end of your range for these date/s if your budget is $150 + taxes/fees, but $150 "all-in" is going to be unlikely.

 

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

As my 2 cents in my priceline win and PRICELINE EXPRESS.

1. start with 80% price of PriceLine express

2. bid from multiple 10 dollars plus 1, e.g. 91

You can start bid from $121 within your acceptable zones

then $131, $141 etc. using re-bid zones (see Priceline Re-Bidding Explained)

 

I guess you will get $131 hotel near space needle. 

 

Don't forget to share your win after your success.

It helps this board if you use PRICELINE link to bid.

Few additional points/questions...

There are FOUR Seattle zones with 'downtown' in their names, exactly which zones (by PRICELINE name) have you been bidding?

There are a lot of July 4th activities in Seattle and you may be able to get a better deal by SPLITTING YOUR PRICELINE BID if you're willing to chagne hotels mid-stay.

Let us know the zone info above, and your thoughts on SPLITTING YOUR PRICELINE BID, and we'll take it from there.
