Priceline Hotel: NYC 6/10-6/12/16

[Bek1185]

Hello,

 

I am traveling to New York 6/10-6/12/16.  I need 1 hotel room.  Currently I have a backup of the Double Tree Metropolitan booked at a rate of 197/night.  I am attempting to find something in a relatively similar location but at a better rate.  The Double Tree Metropolitan was my selection for a backup for its proximity to grand central station, subway stop, and restaurants.  I am willing to consider Rockefeller Center, Grand Central, or if there is another Midtown East Hotel near the subway stop (I know many of the midtown east hotels are not near subway).

 

I am hoping for a 3-4 star in the $120-150 price range.  I would prefer somewhere with free wifi merely for helping to plan activities, but for a good deal could work around this.  I am open to bidding on a hotel, but came across the below express deals which seem to be good and am looking for helping ID’ing the hotels.

 

For Priceline Express I am seeing Grand Central Terminal: 4-star express, 7/10 guest rating, business center, fitness center, $128/night.

 

Also, on Priceline Express, I see Rockefeller Center-Bryant park Area: 4 star express deal, pet friendly, business center, and restaurant, free wifi, nonsmoking, $134/night.

I'll add to the above (confirm all dates on the landing pages):
 

4* MTE for $152/nite

Pets Allowed, Restaurant, Business Center, Fitness Center, No Smoking Rooms/Facilities

==> likely the W New York

 

4* CPS for $157/nite

Pets Allowed, Restaurant, No Smoking Rooms/Facilities

==> Warwick New York would be my best guess here and would be a better value (and still cheaper) than your current back-up booking, imo

Hello,

 

Thank you very much for your feedback.  Unfortunately, the prices on the express deals went up last night while I was watching them and then I entered my 48 hour no cancellation policy on my backup hotel. So it looks like I will be sticking with the Doubletree, but I frequently visit New York and will try again next time.  Thank you again for your feedback!

Thank you for closing this thread with your decision.

As you can see from above, rates do not necessarily go down at the last minute... please post a little more in advance of your cancellation period next time (and only if prices are at levels that you're ready to move forward on and commit to)

 

Hopefully you'll find out RefundableRates.com site useful for your future back-up reservations.
