dutchess420 Posted October 8, 2014 Report Posted October 8, 2014 Hello there!! I plan on staying in Times Square this weekend from 10/11-10/13. I have tried name your own price for a 4.5 star hotel which seems to be the Intercontinental. I put in a bid at 260 and it was rejected and again at 270, also rejected. I honestly don't want to pay more than 300 a night. I saw it also listed in express deals for 333. Should I keep trying with the slightly higher bids? Or should I try another hotel with less stars? I am also open to the Marriott marquis as that is where the conference I am going to is being held. This site has helped me so much!! Thanks a lot.Liz
AaronJB Posted October 8, 2014 Report Posted October 8, 2014 The Intercontinental is the only hotel that has been reported to the board at the 4.5* level - there may be others. There is no way to guarantee a particular property when bidding - are you okay with any of the 4*'s in the TS zone? I'm seeing a 4* for $230 in the TS area on HOTWIRE w/Restaurant, Fitness, Hi-Speed Internet, Business, Blind Accessible, Deaf Accessible, Travel Accessible, Room Accessible, Bathroom Accessible, Handicapped Parking, Roll-in Shower, Pet Friendly. This would be a possible match for the Millennium Broadway or the Crowne Plaza TS. Given the rates on HOTWIRE, I'm guessing you could likely get a 4* in the TS zone for around $190-215. Thank you for using the board's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches.
dutchess420 Posted October 9, 2014 Author Report Posted October 9, 2014 Hello! I was able to get this deal last minute just now. It saved me about $140. Thanks a lot.The details were: Boutique, business center, & restaurant I believe.
thereuare Posted October 9, 2014 Report Posted October 9, 2014 Congratulations on your success and thank you for sharing your results with the board. I believe there may have been more amenities than you listed in your post, which would not have been seen unless you clicked the 'See all' link during the check-out process. Can you please add a reply to this thread confirming the full list of amenities associated with this property... you can still view this information by going to HOTWIRE and clicking the MY ACCOUNT link near the top right of their home page. Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases. Thanks! Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases
