troywlms Posted March 10, 2007 Report Share Posted March 10, 2007 After failing to win a bid at $150 & $160, priceline accepted a $170/night bid for me in the ever popular tourist area of London's West End. (Mayfair/Soho/Picadilly) This area is one of the more expense areas to stay in from what I can tell. (not too sure, I've never been to London)The Hotel that accepted my bid is the 4*:Park Lane Sheraton HotelPiccadilly Troy W. Olathe, KS Link to comment

belgo Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 I won this hotel twice on Priceline for the summer of '05; we stayed pre & post cruise (a 2-week British Isles & Scandinavia cruise). For the pre-cruise, we stayed in a kind of dinky room which had a strange setup for A/C. We eventually figured out that every few hours, you had to dump this container of water in the sink or it would stop working! The room was quite small, too. I don't know if it was because I had Gold status with Starwood, but on the way back I was upgraded to a much nicer room which was pretty much twice the size of the previous one with a modern A/C setup, and everything one would expect from a nice hotel. The location is great--within easy walking distance of Picadilly, Leicester Square, the theaters, and Buckingham Palace. The room for our first stay was definitely not 4*. Link to comment
blindman Posted March 25, 2007 Report Share Posted March 25, 2007 Whilst I don't live in London :o I may be able to give some tips.Depends what you want to know :) May 7th is a "Bank Holiday" so possibly more tourists and higher prices :) At what airport do you arrive ?How are you getting into London?What do you want to see (2 nights??)How many in your party?
