Welcome to BetterBidding!

 

I'm seeing different prices than what you have posted above (so did not take the next step of trying to match the amenities of my search to what you have listed above), are you searching for something other than the default 1room/2adults/0children?

 

What is your maximum budget for this trip? (per nite before fees/taxes)

I didn't read close enough and the way presented i thought there were HOTWIRE offers, sorry about that.

 

However, since you mention these are PRICELINE EXPRESS deals, note that all PRICELINE reservations are for double occupancy... after that it's at the discretion of the hotel and you could receive a room with only one bed.  You can usually 'safely' use PRICELINE EXPRESS when a property shows a 'Bed Choice' option and one of the room choices includes a room type that is designed to accommodate your group's needs (in this instance, 2adults/1child), but i'm assuming that such a 'Bed Choice' option is not offered for every one of the hotels listed above... is landing a room with only one bed a risk you're willing to accept this trip?

 

If this is not an acceptable risk we can stick to the offers that show a Bed Choice (and one of the bed choices works for your family's needs) or you can instead opt for HOTWIRE which allows you to search for up to quad occupancy and guarantees sleeping accommodations for everyone that you include in your search.

Thanks for your comment. I do not dare to take that risk. How can I deal with this? That we still get a room for three people but still at an attractive price? Preferably five stars. Can i better choose the option name your own price and then indicate that we are with 3 people of is that not possible?

 

Thanks in advance for your response.

Personally i'm OK with booking thru PRICELINE EXPRESS for triple/quad occupancy if being able to choose a Room Choice where one of those options is designed to accommodate the number in my group, but if you're not comfortable with that (or no Bed Choice hotels show an option that can be used for 3 guests) then your option is to use HOTWIRE where you can search for up to quad occupancy and they guarantee that the room will accommodate the number of guests included in your search.

 

Bidding on PRICELINE is not a viable option as there is no way to indicate that there are 3 guests prior to your purchase and you are at the hotel's didscretion as to what type of room that assign you (vs. the PRICELINE EXPRESS option above where you can choose a specific Room Choice configuration)

 

Also, keep in mind that it's not PRICELINE / HOTWIRE that is increasing the price based upon triple/quad occupancy, it's the policy of the hotel, so if trying to find an 'attractive price' you need to compare apples-to-apples and make sure you're comparing rates to what it would take to book 3adults directly thru the hotel.

 

Speaking of a 'attractive price':
