Priceline Hotel: 4* NYC (MTS) 70 Park Avenue Hotel

[swlpong]

I am going to New York with my wife for a week (July 15 to July 22). Last year I got Grand Haytt for $160 but that was rejected this time. Any idea what is the avg. price I should bid for a 4* Hotel around mid town?

When you were rejected at $160 which zones did you include?

What is your maximum bid?

Is SPLITTING YOUR PRICELINE BID an option?

Let us know the above and we'll advise accordingly.

I would like to stay in mid-town; I started with 130 Mid-town east; then adding Mid-town south and tried $140; then added Mid town west for $160. and I planned to try again tomorrow

What is your maximum bid?

Is SPLITTING YOUR PRICELINE BID an option?

In addition to the above, is there a reason you're avoiding the UM/CPS zone?

[swlpong]

Yes, spliting is an option (but not more than one split). Any idea on what would be the best day to split off the stay (mid week? weekend?)

I tried the following with no success:

1) with zone MTE, MTS, MTW and UMT

2) Bid up to $170

3) Split stay on Wed and Thursday

Any other suggestion?

My absolute maximum is $200/ night

My only requirement is that I would like to stay close to Times Sq and 5th Ave

Have tried for a week now to try to get a hotel in New York mid town for under $200. Yesterday I still got nothing for $180 even for a split stay (tried Tuesday, Wed. Thu split). I tried the following today

$170 for MTE not successful

$175 and added MTW not successful

$180 and added MTS success.... :)
