Priceline Hotel: 4* NYC (MTW) Sofitel

[BLee]

Hello,

My wife and I have been searching for a hotel in MTW. We successfully got the Sofitel today. Here are the details:

Arrival: June 9

Length of Stay: 2 nights

Originally bid MTW beginning at $160 per night, and increased by $10 per night (over several days) until our bid was $200 per night. We did not add any additional zones as we would like staying in MTW.

At $200 per night, offer was rejected BUT I received a "one-time" offer to increase my bid by $25 (per night) without changing any other bid criteria. I entered $225 per night and the offer was accepted.

Final details:

$450.00 for 2 nights

$ 83.91 for Taxes and Service Fees

_______

$533.91 Total

Best rate posted by Sofitel at this time is a non-cancellation, no-change reservation at $319 per night. This is also the same rate posted by the major online reservations services.

Good luck! Hope this helps with your bidding!

BLee,

This should have been posted as a new thread, as it is a different stay and visitors won't be able to find it here. (bump me thereuare)

We did not add any additional zones as we would like staying in MTW.

You're missing the point of using free rebids. Those areas don't have a 4* hotel, so you cannot win a hotel in those areas when bidding at the 4* level. Had you asked for help, you could have won the same hotel for $10-20 less per night.
