nwofoxhound Posted May 29, 2015 Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 Hitting up MTC between 9/10/15 - 9/12/15 and looking to book a hotel. I'm seeing two options here, details below: Option 1Original Price: $945Sale Price: $281Rating: 90% RecommendedAmenities Include: Free Internet, Pet friendly, Fitness center, Business center and more... The amenities above were the ones I saw using your Bid Helper tool / Easy View. Unfortunately, when I clicked on "full list" it gave me an error. Option 2Original Price: $429Sale Price: $293Rating: 95% RecommendedAmenities Include: Fitness Center, Restaurants, Business Center, Self-Service Laundy & Internet Access The above option was not showing up when using the Bid Helper. Only the $281 (option 1) was available via Easy View. Please help if you can. It would be great to get this wrapped up. Thanks! Link to comment

Option 1This is what I see when replicating your search,Free InternetPet FriendlyFitnessRestaurantBusinessHi-Speed Internet...If this is what you see so would my guess be Sofitel New York. Option 2Is this a 4.5*? If yes, this is what I see on my search,FitnessRestaurantBusinessLaundryHi-Speed InternetBlind AccessibleDeaf AccessibleTravel AccessibleRoom AccessibleBathroom AccessibleHandicapped ParkingRoll-in Shower...If this is what you see would my guess be Warwick Hotel.

thereuare Posted May 29, 2015 Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 ... and please read your messages (which will also remove the red box at the top of the page and make the board easier to navigate)2x I'm mostly interested in Option 3 for the price & location. Option 3 - 3 Star Condo in Upper West Savings: Deal saves 22% or more compared to other hotels in area. Sale Price: $148 Room: Many options. The one we selected for the above price is "1 Queen or 1 King - non-smoking" Guest Score: Rated 9/10 Amenities: Condo, Fitness Center, Business Center, Free Internet, Indoor or Outdoor PoolLet's start here since it is substantially cheaper than all of the other properties and well reviewed with a 9.0+ user review rating... my best guess for this one would be The Milburn. If not this one, i'm very familiar with NYC so let us know your maximum budget per nite (before fees/taxes) for this trip and i will have a look at what else is offered for these dates. (although i wouldn't necessarily count on this UWS property lasting too long as on the retail side PRICELINE is showing 'one left at this price') 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.

nwofoxhound Posted July 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Yes my plans are firm and I'm definitely ready to commit. I just wanted to swing my options once again, since the previous hotel I posted no longer had the deal. My budget is around $200 - $220 per night, unless I get a really good offer ... like a 5-star for $250. Link to comment
thereuare Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 ...the previous hotel I posted no longer had the deal.Which is why we ask that your plans be firm and you're ready to commit before researching hotels, as the ones currently offered (or offered 5 weeks ago) are likely not the same ones available once you're ready to move forward and commit to the purchase. For the ones above my best guess/comments are inline below: PRICELINE EXPRESS: 4.5 Star Hotel Downtown - Financial District Area --> W New York Downtown 4 Star Hotel Midtown East Area --> W New York Hotel 3 Star Hotel Upper West Side Area --> The Milburn Hotel 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.
