pineapplified Posted May 8, 2015 Report Posted May 8, 2015 Yesterday and today I bid up through $135 for three nights in a 3* hotel in Madison Square Gardens - Convention Center, Times Square, Midtown West, Midtown East, and Central Park South (I bid up to $130 for a 3* in Hell's Kitchen). I realize $135 is probably still on the low end for NYC, but my friend and I have a budget to stick to, and with taxes, the three nights were already coming to ~$540 total (we also wanted to keep it limited to these neighborhoods, as we are attending a conference but also plan to sightsee). I wound up taking a $129 Hot.wire deal for a 3* in Madison Square Gardens - Hell's Kitchen, which totaled (using the $20 MOM20 off code) $480 for the three nights. It turned out to be the Holiday Inn Express New York - Manhattan West Side, which I predicted based on the Better Bidding hotel lists, and which I am perfectly happy with. I think this is a pretty good deal -- I was surprised to find it cheaper than Price.line. I will post my Hotwire success to the appropriate forum. I used the Better Bidding links. Thanks again!
pineapplified Posted May 8, 2015 Author Report Posted May 8, 2015 I accepted a Hot.wire deal of $129 a night for three nights (5/29, 5/30, 5/31) for a 3* hotel in Madison Square Garden - Hell's Kitchen. The price with taxes came to $500.10, to which I added the $20 off MOM20 promo code for a total of $480.10. The hotel turned out to be Holiday Inn Express New York - Manhattan West Side, which I predicted based on the Better Bidding hotel lists, and which I am perfectly happy with. The amenities listed were free breakfast, free internet, fitness center, business center, and internet access. The hotel was described as being 85% recommended and held a 4 / 5 rating on Trip Advisor. On the billing page, there was also a little note stating that the hotel had earned a 4.5 / 5 guest rating for cleanliness and tidiness. I used the Better Biding HOTWIRE links. Thank you!
AaronJB Posted May 8, 2015 Report Posted May 8, 2015 Congrats on your success. :)Terrific win for this property and glad you are pleased with the result. It's not that far from here to the Intrepid Air/Space Museum, which is high on my list as one of the best sights in the NYC. Thank you for sharing your win and using the site's PRICELINE or HOTWIRE links to start your purchases and searches. Enjoy your stay.
