ravinia Posted December 5, 2005 Report Posted December 5, 2005 Priceline has been allowing bids for a while now, and recently started showing suggested prices in various zones. These prices seem a bit higher than the hotel and agency websites; what we come up with is mostly toward $200/night, with one known 3* showing $119. Bidding all three zones up to $85 over the last couple weeks has met with rejection. We'll probably keep trying.
ravinia Posted December 10, 2005 Author Report Posted December 10, 2005 First tried 4* in FQ, CC, and CBD up to $80. 3* bid for FQ at $65 brought counteroffer for $82.$68 was rejected, went up $4 and got it. This is well above the usual Christmas time rates, but these are not usual circumstances in New Orleans. Rates may well go down, and we didn't bidboutique in the areas that have the option, but we needed to hammer down lodging before travelarrangements. Will try to post review after stay.
