surajsethi Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 Hi there, Just looking for some advice and suggestions for a hotel (3* and better) in the the San Fran downtown/union sq/Embarcardero/Wharf area. I've noticed a few people getting 4* hotels for around $110-$120 in late Nov/Dec. In my searches so far, I haven't found anything even close to these prices. Just after any advice on the best possible deal/bargain for a good hotel in San Fran for those dates. I have a budget of around $175/night but hoping to get something for less if at all possible. Thanks Suraj Link to comment
AaronJB Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 San Francisco has become one of the most expensive hotel cities in the US in the last few years, unfortunately, with less and less in the way of more reasonable periods. If there's something going on, rates can ramp up quickly. I think you could possibly manage a 4* in the $200 area ($195-215.) What have you tried bidding up to so far?

surajsethi Posted September 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 Hi Aaron, Yeah, I've realized hotel prices in SF are as bad as NY. To be honest, I've not had much success with bidding. I've bid $195 and have not been successful. What sort of bidding strategy would you recommend? Are there any PRICELINE EXPRESS / HOTWIRE deals that you can recommend as well? Thanks Suraj Link to comment
thereuare Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 I have a budget of around $175/night but hoping to get something for less if at all possible.Have your $195 bids been at the 3* or higher level and included all of your acceptable zones? Are there any PRICELINE EXPRESS / HOTWIRE deals that you can recommend as well?Currently there is nothing on PRICELINE EXPRESS or HOTWIRE in your desired zones and star rating that is priced less then $175/nite (nor $195/nite) 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.

surajsethi Posted September 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2015 Yea, it was rejected at with all these zones at 195. Seems like the prices have come down today? Can you help ID this PRICELINE EXPRESS offer? 3 Star Hotel in Civic Center South - South of Market Area for $161/night Pets Allowed Business Center Restaurant Free Internet Indoor or Outdoor Pool Fitness Center I have a hunch its the Holiday Inn Civic Centre - what do you think?

thereuare Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 On HOTWIRE i'm currently seeing what appears to be the Hotel Whitcomb for $145/nite and the Carriage Inn for $167/nite... do either of these work for your needs?

surajsethi Posted October 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2015 Thanks for all your help. Ended up using priceline and after a week+ battle finally got a bid of USD175 accepted. Mixed reviews on tripadvisor and on priceline esp with the small rooms but hopefully the good location makes up for it. Thanks again Suraj Link to comment
