Priceline Hotel: 3* Hamilton Sheraton

[lhwjud]

Looking for a 3* hotel in Hamilton for a conference in McMaster University. Hotwire has 3* at $75 with the following amenities. I reckon this might be Sheraton Hamilton, right?

Fitness Center

Restaurant(s)

High-speed Internet Access

Pool(s)

Business Center

Golf Nearby

Looking to pay no more than $70 per night for the 3*. What rebid zone do I have given the following Priceline zones?

Hamilton (city), Ontario

Grimsby, Ontario (15.7 miles from Hamilton (city))

Lincoln, Ontario (20.8 miles from Hamilton (city))

Cambridge (city), Ontario (30.7 miles from Hamilton (city))

Guelph, Ontario (32.1 miles from Hamilton (city))

Kitchener, Ontario (39.3 miles from Hamilton (city))

Niagara-on-the-lake, Ontario (44 miles from Hamilton (city))

Many thanks!

What rebid zone do I have given the following Priceline zones?

You need to know how to check these yourself (we can explain how) since we could let you know which zones above are currently re-bid zones, but by the time you bid (minutes, hours, days, weeks later) a hotel could have been added to, or upgraded in, one of the zones which makes it no longer a re-bid zone... and you'll potentially end up in an area you didn't want.

To determine the highest star rating available in each zone, use the following technique from Priceline Re-Bidding Explained:

The way to check what star levels are available in each zone is to open a Priceline page, check ONLY the zone you are inquiring about, and then proceed to the next page (as if you were going to select a zone)... this will give you the available star ratings in that area. You can then hit BACK on your browser, uncheck the current box, check the next box, and repeat the process. It is important to do this before EACH attempt at adding a zone that you really don't want, as new hotels can be added and the star ratings can change at any time. (NOTE: for most users Priceline has updated their interface making the above process easier... simply check a zone and note the highest star rating available within each zone, UNcheck that zone and checkmark the next zone, repeating the process)

There are THREE re-bid zones in this area, see if you can determine which ones tehy are based upon the above and confirm them with the board. If not, list each of the zones above as you did above and the highest star rating available in each, we'll then make sure you have the information correct.
