Priceline Hotel: 4* NYC (Times Square-Theatre District) Millenium Broadway

[XCountryFlyer]

Is someone going to update the NYC bidding zones/hotel lists? Priceline just changed them around in the last week. They split Midtown South into three new zones I believe.

I decided that I would stick to Times Square and Midtown West zones for a 4* hotel due to theater district proximity.

I started at $140 and used the free rebids and went up in $5 increments and was denied all the way to $170 when I ran out of rebid zones. I waited 24 hours and started the process at $175. I was denied but offered counteroffer of $25. I used some free rebids to work up to $182 and was denied. I increased to $184 and was accepted. Rate on Travelocity & Expedia was $379/night. From Hotwire and using the list on here, the Millenium seemed to be $279/night and the cheapest of the 4* hotels on Hotwire.

Was reading Tripadvisor.com and the reviews are positive (4 out of 5 average) and the location is fantastic.

Your Offer Price: $184.00

Number of Rooms: 1

Number of Nights: 2

Subtotal: $368.00

Taxes and Service Fees: $70.56

Total Charges: $438.56

And just on a side rant, newer PL users should really read and learn as much as possible on here before posting H-E-L-P. And if you're going to ask for help, put more information than "I need a hotel room in New York City." A plethora of 911s on here lately where the poster never replies or concludes. End rant.

... and those that use the information here should also use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board and in the support page to begin their travel purchases :)
