Priceline Hotel: 4* NYC (MTW) Hilton New York

[Travelgal1]

Hi after reading some posts on here, tried my luck on priceline...Luckily after several attempts I won the Hilton New York for $150 (bid $130, priceline advised have offer if bid $20 more) on Priceline after my cruise on 6/17. I am still trying for a hotel pre-cruise 6/10-6/13. How likely do you think it is that I can find something 4* for three nights? I am willing to bid up to $175. Higher than that I would prefer to just stick with what I currently have.

I have tried the following strategy, but no luck thus far...Im not sure if this is a good strategy so any suggestions would be appreciated:

ALL 4* BIDS

MTW>$130

MTW + UWS> $135

MTW + UES> $140

Exit

MTE> $130

MTE + UWS> $135

MTE + UES> $140

Exit

MTW + UM/CPS> $145

MTW + UM/CPS + UES> $150

MTW + UM/CPS + UWS> $155

Exit

MTE + UM/CPS> $145

MTE + UM/CPS + UES> $150

MTE + UM/CPS + UWS> $155

Exit

MTW + MTE> $160

MTW + MTE + UWS> $165

MTW + MTE + UES> $170

This thread is to reflect the hotel you have won... please start a NEW TOPIC for the other part of your stay.

Thanks.

It's probably not a good idea to accept priceline's counteroffer. See:
