BigSexy Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 I need a hotel, downtown Seatlle for two seperate night, the 17th and the 19th. (staying in Victoria the 18th). I'm seeing a decent amount of 3.5 or 4* under $100. Below is my bid history. 6/30 10:45a 4* Night of 7/19 $70 Denied6/30 11:05a 4* Night of 7/17 $80 Denied7/1 1:27p 4* Night of 7/17 $85 Denied7/1 1:28p 3.5* Night of 7/17 $85 Denied7/1 1:29p 3.5* Night of 7/19 $75 Denied7/3 9:04a 4* Night of 7/17 $90 Denied7/3 9:05a 3.5* Night of 7/17 $90 Denied7/3 9:06a 3.5* Night of 7/19 $80 Denied7/7 8:10a 4* Night of 7/17 $93 Denied7/7 8:11a 3.5* Night of 7/17 $93 Denied7/7 8:14a 4* Night of 7/19 $90 Denied7/7 8:14a 3.5* Night of 7/19 $90 Denied7/8 9:48a 4* Night of 7/17 $98 Denied7/8 9:49a 3.5* Night of 7/17 $98 Denied7/8 9:51a 4* Night of 7/19 $95 Denied7/8 9:52a 3.5* Night of 7/19 $95 Denied Do I stay around $100 and wait for price to come down as we get closer? Or start going up $5-10 per day? Anything over $150 will cause me to revisit location, as additional $ could be spent on car and simply drive to desired area. Help? Link to comment
AaronJB Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Welcome to Betterbidding. :)We'll use this thread for the 7/17 stay - please start a new thread for the additional night. Additionally, please take a look at this thread regarding re-bidding: re-bidding. Unfortunately, it looks like something must be going on in the core areas of Seattle for 7/17 with rates as high as they are. Based on the rates I'm seeing, I don't think $150 is going to be enough for 3.5*+ downtown for this night. Which outlying area/s would be acceptable? Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches. Link to comment
BigSexy Posted July 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 I REALLY want to be in this area. Re-bidding now, going up to $120 to start, and down to 3* for 2nd re-bid. Link to comment
thereuare Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 Let us know which zones, by PRICELINE name, are acceptable at the 3.5* level and how high you'd like to bid... if that is rejected let us know if the same zones are acceptable at the 3* level and how high you're willing to bid at that rating? We'll then suggest a strategy for you to follow. Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

BigSexy Posted July 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 I'd prefer to stay downtown, pike place area. Space needle OK too. Or southLake. I'll begin adding zones today... Link to comment
thereuare Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Unfortunately your $120 target is not likely going to be in the right ballpark. As per your topic for the other leg of your stay for this trip: Using our sister site MAPS and HOTELS.com search within 3 miles of Seattle for your dates, remove all star ratings less than 4 stars... what is the best rate you're able to find at a 4* or better hotel in the zone(s) that you're bidding?
