Priceline Hotel: Hotel Bids in Abu Dhabi and Dubai

[terrafelicia]

Hello everyone,

 

I will be in UAE Nov. 29 through Dec. 5. My time will be split between Abu Dhabi and Dubai. I have two questions:

 

1. What are the five-star hotel bidding options on Priceline?

2. What are winning bids for those hotels?

 

Thanks,

 

Terra

I'm interested in staying in Downtown Dubai - Burj Khalifa or Dubai Mall.

 

I'd like to spend no more than $150 per night for a 5-star.
