yochi Posted September 3, 2014 Report Posted September 3, 2014 I live in New York City, in Manhattan, in Midtown, and I would love to stay at the Waldorf-Astoria for my birthday this weekend because of its history. So, obviously I am trying for something very specific here, and I accept that if I don't get it, I'm stuck. I saw the following Express Deals on Priceline (the only two currently showing in Midtown East): Midtown East 4*Guest Rating: 8+GUEST FAVORITESave 40% or more+$160/nightAmenities: Pets, Restaurant, Fitness Center, Business Center Midtown East 4.5*Guest Rating: 8+GUEST FAVORITESave 20% or more+$236/nightAmenities: Pets, Restaurant, Fitness Center, Business Center Does anyone have any idea what these may be, or if either one is Waldorf-Astoria? I did try bidding on a 4.5 star at $150, just to see if they would take the low offer, and I was rejected. I have never bid on a hotel room before, so I appreciate any advice to be offered. Thank you!
yellowdog Posted September 4, 2014 Report Posted September 4, 2014 Welcome to BetterBidding! I'm sorry to say that I don't think we can weed out Waldorf-Astoria for you :( It's not the 4*. Waldorf-Astoria is currently rated 4.5* by PRICELINE The amenities is a match for several hotels in this zone like Hyatt 48 Lex, Omni Berkshire Place, The New York Palace, The Benjamin etc Let us know your thoughts and we'll go from there. Please use the PRICELINE and hot.wire links on the board to begin your purchases and searches. Yellowdog.
yochi Posted September 5, 2014 Author Report Posted September 5, 2014 I just did a Priceline.Express deal because they were offering a 5* hotel for $254 a night in Central Park South for tomorrow night, Saturday, September 6. It turned out to be The Quin at 57th and 6th. I'm not sure it's so much a 5* property in terms of amenities, but perhaps because it is fairly new. I guess I'll find out tomorrow.
