kevin347 Posted May 7, 2015 Report Posted May 7, 2015 Looking for 2 rooms for 1 night on May 30th - checkout May 31st near Niagara Falls area. It's a Saturday. I want to stay on American side and don't want to go towards Canada. I don't mind driving 30 to 40 minutes to get to the maid of the mist and other falls attraction. Is 50$ possible for 2.5 to 3* hotel? I am thinking about these areas as possible options, am I missing something? Should I include or exclude any areas? Buffalo - Amherst Buffalo Airport (BUF)Buffalo East - CheektowagaDowntown Buffalo East Niagara Falls Grand Island – Niagara Falls Thanks
AaronJB Posted May 7, 2015 Report Posted May 7, 2015 Please first provide a follow-up for your prior Orlando Hotwire thread (post what you decided for that stay within that thread, then reply to this thread and we would be happy to offer our thoughts on the above.) Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPS and HOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases.
thereuare Posted May 7, 2015 Report Posted May 7, 2015 I think you're more likely looking at the $50-$60 area than the sub-$50 area for a 2.5* or better in the zones above. Let us know if/when you're ready to bid, and your maximum bid amount, and we will suggest a strategy for you to follow.

akw942 Posted May 7, 2015 Report Posted May 7, 2015 Hi, I am looking for something similar but different dates. Should I create my own post with details? Didn't want to be redundant given it's similar areas but not exact. Thank you, Amy
AaronJB Posted May 8, 2015 Report Posted May 8, 2015 akw942, Please start a new thread for your dates. Rates and inventory can vary very significantly from day-to-day and bidding is really case specific. Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPS and HOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases. PS- and please follow-up your previous Priceline NYC thread with whatever you ended up doing for that trip. Thanks.
kevin347 Posted May 8, 2015 Author Report Posted May 8, 2015 50 is max I can go till 60. I can start bidding now. What can I expect in 2.5stars? Are the hotel's in the area I have mentioned seems like within 30 to 40 minutes driving distance? Is there any parking fees in downtown hotels.
thereuare Posted May 8, 2015 Report Posted May 8, 2015 What can I expect in 2.5stars?You can use the Priceline Hotel List to see what has previously been reported to the board in these zones (but note the comments at the top of the hotel list) Are the hotel's in the area I have mentioned seems like within 30 to 40 minutes driving distance?Use our sister site MAPS and HOTELS.com to search this area and you can get a feel for how are the various zones are from the location you will be heading. Is there any parking fees in downtown hotels.Another of our sister site ResortFee.com not only lists resort fees at hotels in the area, but if you expand the list it often includes other common fees (parking, internet, etc) Let us know once your zones are confirmed and we will suggest a strategy for you to follow.
