Priceline Hotel: Can I do better in NYC 4* 11/24-26/2015?

I have a "Friends and Family" rate booked at The Lexington in MTE for 11/24-26. Rate is $107 first night and $129 for the second night, for a total of $278 with taxes and fees. This is a pretty good rate, but I'm wondering if I could get a nicer property for less money? I understand that Thanksgiving generally presents opportunities due to the drop in business travel.

 

If a better rate is a possibility, I'd be happy to get a bidding strategy. If where I'm at now is as good as it will get, then I'm not unhappy.

 

MTE, MTW, TS, MSG, ESB would all be fine.

 

Thanks so much!

I see two options:

FIRST:

There is this 4* Times Square hotel (confirm your dates on the landing page) with Restaurant, Free Internet, Business Center, Fitness Center. While the room rate is $127/nite and will cost you a little more than your current back-up reservation, this PRICELINE EXPRESS offer has an excellent 9.0+ user review rating by previous guests, so would likely provide you a better hotel and a better location (if you're looking to stay in/near Times Square) for a little more money... my guess for this property would be the Hyatt Times Square.

SECOND:

I do think you can get a 4* hotel for under $110/nite in one of the MTE, MTW, TS, MSG, or ESB zones. If you'd prefer to go this route you can bid as follows...

When bidding 4* in NYC you have TWO re-bid zones. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.
