Priceline Hotel: 4* London (Kensington-Earls Court-Knightbridge) Millennium Gloucester

[Margie]

To say I have been bidding this trip for a while is an understatement. I have been consistently bidding up to $91 (today decided to push it a little further) for these dates using the areas of: Kensington/Earl

This is just about half price so i think it's a very good win... especially given the multi-nite stay!

Do you recall the amount of your highest previously rejected bid which included the Kensington-Earls Court-Knightbridge zone?

Thank you for using the PRICELINE links at SavingsBarn.com to begin your bidding :)

Enjoy your stay.

I was rejected at $91 yesterday and the (rejected) bid included Kensington-Earls Court-Knightbridge

Always happy to bid through the links here!

Margie:

I stayed at this location in December 2004 and was pleased.

The Glouscester Road tube station is just around the corner and the station serves some of the main lines so you will easily be able to get most anywhere in London you need to.

The neighborhood is very quiet and calm (maybe too calm) and there a couple pubs, chain restaurants, shops, and 7-11 nearby.

If you are a walker, Hyde Park and the V&A Museum are near.

I think I paid $91 on Priceline and received my money's worth for London.

This location may not be 4* by US standards because the room was kind of plain but it was very large compared to European tourist hotels, the staff was nice, and the bathroom was huge.

Lastly, as many people do on this board, I recommend you sign up for the chain's frequent customer program and then ask for an upgrade when you check in. Getting a free upgrade depends on availability, the clerk's demeanor and mood that day, and your persuasiveness. It worked for me and I got an upgrade to the concierge level or whatever they call it.

Enjoy.
