Hello, 

 

I am new to PRICELINE bidding, and I'm hoping for some strategy advice. We are not too picky about the hotel, but since it's a 4 night stay I figured 3.5 stars and up would be more comfortable. We would like to keep our price under $100/night. Above that makes an apartment the cheaper option.

 

Is there an advantage/disadvantage to bidding this far out from our trip? Is there a timeframe that is most competitive.

 

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Please start by following-up your previous Las Vegas hotwire hotel thread with whatever you ended up doing for that trip.  Please remember to follow-up your threads with your wins/decisions as you make them (even if you don't ultimately use PRICELINE / HOTWIRE, cancel the trip, book direct, etc) as this help keep the board better organized and more useful for everyone... as well as being a courtesy to anyone who took the time to help with your travel plans.

 

... then reply here and we will have a look at your post above.

For New Orleans how about this PRICELINE EXPRESS deal:

 

4* French Quarter - Canal Street (<-- CLICK HERE and confirm your dates on the landing page) for $85/nite with:
Fitness Center
Business Center
Restaurant
No Smoking Rooms/Facilities
Free Internet
Indoor or Outdoor Pool
==> i'm not 100% certain, but i believe this may be the New Orleans Marriott which has previously been seen with this amenity set before, and would only be a few dollars more than the 3.5* offer...

 

3.5* French Quarter - Canal Street (<-- CLICK HERE and confirm your dates on the landing page) for $81/nite with:
Fitness Center
Business Center
No Smoking Rooms/Facilities
Indoor or Outdoor Pool
==> Doubletree Hotel New Orelans would be my best guess for this one

 

I'm also seeing from HOTWIRE:

3.5* HOTWIRE French Quarter - Bourbon Street for $73.00

Indoor Pool
Fitness
Smoke Free

Golf

Hi-Speed Internet
Business
Tennis
Spa
