Priceline Hotel: 5* 4* 3* in Munich - Help Needed...

[Shahar]

Hello,

I'm hoping to use priceline to book a hotel room in Munich, Germany for 3 days in October.

It seems that there is a special event on the dates I'm looking for and any help would be great.

I'm looking for two double rooms anywhere in Munich area (outside the city center is also an option....) from Oct 3 till Oct 6.

Thanks in advance! :)

Welcome to BetterBidding!

What is your maximum bid for this stay? Are you willing to pay more for one of the higher rated hotels or are you looking for the least expenisve 3* or better hotel? Are you willing to pay more a hotel in the City Center or is there really no zone preference?

October + special event = How about Oktoberfest?!?! www.oktoberfest.de

I'm looking for two double rooms anywhere in Munich area (outside the city center is also an option....) from Oct 3 till Oct 6.

That will be very tough and/or expensive, even outside the city limits.

I'm looking for something around 150 US$ a night for the best hotel this amount of money can buy. If the hotels outside the city are better hotels, I prefer this option.

Is the airport zone acceptable as well? It seems to be quite a ways from the city itself.

Do you already have you plane tix?

As this is during Oktoberfest and Oct 3rd is Germany's national holiday I wouldn't be overly optimistic about this one. But others have been successful even during Oktoberfest., so give it a shot. Any of the hotels reported in Munich so far are close to public transport so you should be fine at any of these. The airport zone is indeed way out there. But if you get the Airport Marriott you would still be close to the train which would take you downtown in about 45 minutes.

I already have the flight ticket. The airport area sounds great!

Can you recommend how much should i bid for each star level?

Thanks again! :)

The only reported hotel in the Airport zone so far is the 4* Marriott. Cheapest rate on their website is

Since you have tons of time left, I would recommend to start even lower at about $60. You can bid 3 times every day using the city centre zones as rebid zones.
