Priceline Hotel: 2.5* Atlanta (Perimeter) Hilton Garden Inn

[MadFlyer]

Have been using Entertainment Card to book 2 bedroom suites at the Staybridge Suites Perimeter for $59 each as ICH allows booking direct through website when rate exists. They were mistakingly giving discount from weekend rate and now rack and was going to be $98 for this booking.

HOTWIRE had great deals with all the Hyatt Places coming up from $59 to $69 and hoped might get that through PRICELINE but had seen all the $37 offers posted here. But also saw Buckhead coming in at $40 sometimes.

1. Started bid at $32, received notice that I could add $8.00 to bid to secure room.

2. Selected "Perimeter" and "Buckhead" and raised bid to $35. Notice to increase by $10.

3. Selected "Perimeter" and "Buckhead"and free re-bid zone and rasied bid to just $37. Declined.

4. Selected "Perimeter" and "Buckhead"and another free re-bid zone and rasied bid to just $38.

5. Won bid. 3 rooms for $38 a night. (Probably would have gotten it for $37 without Buckhead try.)

Booked with PRICELINE link from this website. Only concern is that the taxes and fees seamed high compared to what I have seen others post.

Happy to get a win as I finally gave up for my London stay for 7/8/08 to 7/10/08 after trying 8 zone system each day this past week at 4* ranging from $96 to finally $186 today.

Congratualtions on your success!

Glad to hear you're happy with your results and got a successful win under your belt.

I think the taxes and fees seem high due to the number or room nites of this reservation (3 rooms x 2 nites = 6 room nites). As the fees are somewhat fixed (on a multi-nite stay such as this i'm guessing you're looking at ~$5 per room per nite) and the winning bid price is so low, the fee portion is a large percentage of the total... which therefore makes it look high.

Thank you for sharing your win with the board and using our PRICELINE link to begin your bidding.

Enjoy your stay.
