Hundtoft Posted September 12, 2007 Report Posted September 12, 2007 I am interested in a 4 or 5 star hotel on 11/7 & 11/8, we won't have a rental car, so closer to the strip or downtown would be best, and we need to keep it as close to $100 per nite as possible as I am on an expense account. Appreciate any advise...also, any suggestions for dining?Thanks,Barb
thereuare Posted September 12, 2007 Report Posted September 12, 2007 Welcome to BetterBidding!Are you familiar with Vegas as the "main" part of the strip and Downtown are not really near each other at all. As you're on an expense account, i'm assuming you're there on business... where do you need to be for business purposes?

Hundtoft Posted September 12, 2007 Author Report Posted September 12, 2007 Actually although my work is paying, it is a layover between destinations. I can "be" anywhere, but would prefer one of those two locations as I don't want to rent a car.
thereuare Posted September 13, 2007 Report Posted September 13, 2007 At the 4* level you have two re-bid zones (NOTE: Summerlin is not one of them). If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.I'm assuming the Westin, which is slightly off-strip but easily walkable to the strip is 'fine'... if not, don't bid as follows, post back for a revised strategy.Select 4* South Strip...Bid $50, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $55, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $60, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* North Strip...Bid $50, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $55, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $60, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* Downtown...Bid $50, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $55, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $60, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* South Strip and North...Bid $65, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $70, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $75, if rejected close browser and re-access priceline however you did previously.Select 4* South Strip and Downtown...Bid $65, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $70.If rejected go to HOTWIRE and there should be a 4* hotel in the Downtown zone, best guess is the Golden Nugget, for ~$72/nite (your price may differ slightly)Any questions feel free to ask.Good Luck and let us know how it goes.
