WillTravel Posted June 1, 2008 Report Share Posted June 1, 2008 For this one, and your Vienna stay, how important are the variables of price, star level rating, and location? It's quite possible you can succeed for $100 at something, but not necessarily for a convenient 4* or 5* hotel. Link to comment

WillTravel Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 My concern, then, is that you likely will not get a central location by bidding for 4* (or less) for Prague, due to how the zones are set up. So far, all reported 5* hotels are very central (although this could change). But the problem then is that a 5* bid might be over your budget. After looking at the zones and hotel lists, would you want to take the risk of a 4* bid?I would start by booking a backup, so that you know what you are "competing" against with your Priceline bid.

sandy49 Posted June 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 sorry i'm a newbie. do you mean by book myself a back up from those normal web site ??? Link to comment
WillTravel Posted June 3, 2008 Report Share Posted June 3, 2008 Yes, before you start bidding, find the best deal you can that you can cancel.That way, you know you'll have something if you strike out at bidding, and you'll know whether the bid you are doing is actually a good deal or not.With Prague, it's also possible you might prefer a non-PRICELINE choice if location is a paramount concern.
