tinnub Posted May 15, 2004 Report Posted May 15, 2004 Bid $45, rebid $50, rebid $55, up to $70 through various methods. All rejected. Will wait 3 days and go through it all again. Anyone have any ideas why rooms are tight? Appears Hyatt comes up often at those bids. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.
thereuare Posted May 16, 2004 Report Posted May 16, 2004 Maybe just a bit early?This area seems to correspond with Hotwire's QuincyMkt/Financial district and a search there reveals rates in the $140+ range. Rates don't seem that high on Hyatt's website so my guess is that they just haven't released inventory yet.I'd continue to try once a week at this point (and book a cancellable back-up in the meantime).

tinnub Posted May 16, 2004 Author Report Posted May 16, 2004 Thanks, I will just wait a week. In the mean time, followed your advice and booked a refundable reservation. Will keep everyone posted on my progress.
tinnub Posted May 18, 2004 Author Report Posted May 18, 2004 Tried again with various bid from $40 to $80 a night, still nothing. Other dates seem to work for bids of $40 from vaious sources. I'll keep trying.
tinnub Posted May 27, 2004 Author Report Posted May 27, 2004 Still no takers up to $80. I'll keep trying.
ohbahsan Posted June 2, 2004 Report Posted June 2, 2004 try a week before your scheduled arrival. i was bidding for jun 4-6 since mid-may and had no luck. then i bid again on jun 1st and my bid of $40 for the hyatt was accepted.
tinnub Posted June 2, 2004 Author Report Posted June 2, 2004 thanks, I will try that. I have refundable res. at the Hyatt now.
tinnub Posted June 11, 2004 Author Report Posted June 11, 2004 FINALLY, got the Hyatt Financial District for $40 7/9/04 and $55 7/10/04 for 2 rooms. Split up bids and probably overbid for Sat. but still happy. Saved over $100 per night. Moderator, if you want me to post separately as to winning bid let me know. Thanks for your help and the help of others! :)
thereuare Posted June 11, 2004 Report Posted June 11, 2004 Glad to hear you got this taken care of... i knew you had been at it for awhile!Moderator, if you want me to post separately as to winning bid let me knowFeel free to call me 'thereuare'... no titles needed around here :) Normally i'd ask the posts to be separated, but i've adjusted the title of each of your posts to reflect the wins, and prices, for each date. I've also added a link to each post that leads to the other (as you can see right below).Everyone can see the other nite of this stay before it was split in this PRICELINE BOSTON HOTEL win.
