Priceline Hotel: Priceline Disney/Orlando - My successes

[CarolA]

I have been requested to post some information on my bidding success on Priceline in the Orlando area.

The only hotels that I routinely follow are the resort hotels (My

theory

being that I can normally get a resort on Priceline for the price of

the All

Stars)

I have seen the Gaylord Palms, Marriott World Center, Wyndam Palace

and

Hilton come up fairly consistently with an occasional Swan/Dolphin

thrown

in.

As for prices, I have gotten the Marriott, Wyndam and Hilton at various

times anywhere between $60 and $75. (I have never gone over $75). I

would say I have used Priceline for around 5 or 6 stays and never gotten the

Swan/Dolphin so my feeling is that it is much harder then the others.

I have also noticed people getting the Grosvenor and Sheraton Safari in

the 3 star range.

I have also bid a few times on Airport hotels. In the three star range

I have gotten the Airport Marriott and the Hyatt. I think the Marriott I

got for under $40 and the Hyatt for about $60.

Hope that helps!

When you say that you never pay over $75, does that include peek season also? I'm looking to booke during March (Spring) Spring Break. What should I expect to pay?
