thereuare Posted February 25, 2019 Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 Welcome back! It would be appreciated if you started by concluding your previous NYC Priceline 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. Also note that priceline has continued to move/hide their bidding page so we have set up the following site for easy access which you can bookmark now: BiddingForHotelRooms.com As for your bidding for your trip above, i would try as follows... When bidding 4* in NYC you have ELEVEN 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. Select 4* ALL ACCEPTABLE ZONES Bid $110, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $115, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $120, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $125, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $128, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $130, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $133, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $135, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $138, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $140, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $143, if rejected add re-bid zone... Bid $145 If the above is rejected you can choose either of the following PRICELINE EXPRESS deals (which would be cheaper than increasing your bid when combined with our current Priceline Coupon): 4* Midtown East (<-- CLICK HERE and confirm your dates on the landing page) for $153/nite with: Pets Allowed Business Center Restaurant Free Internet available Free Internet Fitness Center ==> best guess for this one would be The Maxwell NYC 4* Downtown - Wall Street (<-- CLICK HERE and confirm your dates on the landing page) for $154/nite with: Business Center Restaurant Free Internet available Free Internet Fitness Center ==> World Center Hotel is my best guess here Any questions feel free to ask. Please remember to return to BetterBidding and use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases... or thru our sister site MAPSandHOTELS.com for your regular rate purchases. Good luck and let us know how it goes. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
