Latitudes Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 Not as much joy with Singapore 5* for 10/29-10/31.5* City Hall - Marina Bay $72 - Rejected.+ Riverside $73 - Rejected.+ Financial District $76 - Rejected.+ Bugis $77 - Rejected.+ East Coast $78 - Rejected.The Conrad's best price on their Web site is SG$340 (US$214) per night.Because this is a Sunday and a Monday night, am I better off splitting the bid into two?I'll try again in a couple of days. :) Link to comment
Chris26WI Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 I think the current Conrad rate goes only for weekend nights for the moment. Good luck! Link to comment
Latitudes Posted October 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 Thanks for the information Chris.These dates span a Sunday night and a Monday night, so I decided to split my bids and first try for the Sunday night.5* City Hall - Marina Bay - $73 - Rejected.+ Riverside - $75 - Rejected.+ Financial - $77 - Rejected.+ Bugis - $79 - Rejected.+ East Coast - $81 - Rejected.Since it looked as though the Conrad was offering the weekday rate for a Sunday night, I decided to include the Monday night into my bid.+ 10/31 - $85 - Rejected.I'll try again in a few days. Perhaps I should try for a 4* instead? The trouble is, that severely reduces my rebid opportunities. Link to comment
Chris26WI Posted October 15, 2006 Report Share Posted October 15, 2006 If bidding for 4star... I'd do so only for Marina City Hall area.. which should give you the Swissotel Stamford - all other areas are too risky in terms of 4star (I assume you know that :) ). But I doubt the Stamford goes for much less than the Conrad nowadays.. but you can try. Link to comment
avatar Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 i am trying to bid for some days in Feb '07. could you pls explain why 4* in the other areas are risky? I can't see Orchard with any bad 4* but i have no experience with this region.....thanks for your help Link to comment
Chris26WI Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 The Meridien Orchard seems already quite run-down and the Elizabeth seems not to be worth the 4 PL stars, according to what I've read in some reviews. Link to comment
