Hi, I am new at this so I humbly ask for a bidding strategy for a NYC Midtown Hotel from 6/17 - 6/20. I would like a 4* hotel. I have tried Expedia and was going to pay $285/night which was one of the cheaper hotels (Grand Hyatt Hotel) until I found this forum. Could someone give me some advise as to how much I should bid for a hotel during this time. Thank you, this forum rocks.

Welcome to BetterBidding!

Are you willing to bid the Midtown East, Midtown West, and UpperMidtown/Central Park South zones? These are the zone most often bid by the typical tourist, but If these are not good for your plans, which zones are you willing to bid?

What is your maximum bid?

Let us know the above and we'll suggest a strategy for you to follow.

It is important to know how to check your re-bid zones on your won since they should be checked before each bidding cycle to make sure that they have not changed since posted.

From Priceline Re-Bidding Explained:

The way to check what star levels are available in each zone is to open a Priceline page, check ONLY the zone you are inquiring about, and then proceed to the next page (as if you were going to select a zone)... this will give you the available star ratings in that area. You can then hit BACK on your browser, uncheck the current box, check the next box, and repeat the process. It is important to do this before EACH attempt at adding a zone that you really don't want, as new hotels can be added and the star ratings can change at any time.
