Hi, I'm looking for some bidding help. This will be my first time bidding and I am wondering which website you would suggest, Priceline or Hotwire? And secondly I would like help with a bidding strategy for a hotel in the Times Square/Central Park area for 3 nights (07/21-07/24). Would like to spend about $125-150 per night.

Welcome to BetterBidding!

Which service you use depends upon what is most important to you... priceline is ususally a little cheaper but HOTWIRE gives you the ability to take an educated guess as to which hotel you'll likely be receiving.

If you search HOTWIRE, do you see any 4* hotels in your price range? I don't currently see anything near your budget, so the decision which service to use may have been made for you.

Unless you see something acceptable thru HOTWIRE, let us know which priceline zone(s) you're wiling to bid... "Time Square" is not a priceline zone. Most users to NYC are fine with, and bid, the MTE, MTW and UM/CPS zones (although MTE probably doesn't fit your "times square and central park")... so you should see how priceline divides up the area and let us know which one(s) you're comfortable bidding, we'll then suggest a strategy for you to follow.
