Priceline Hotel: 3* or 4* NYC hotel in November

[greenjade08]

Hi! This is my first time using PRICELINE, and it would be great to get some advice!

We are looking to book a 3 star or 4 star hotel from November 5 to 7. The districts wanted:

MTE

MTW

Times Square

MTS

Close access to transit is important.

Our price range would ideally be $150. Some suggestions would be great!

Thanks! :)

Welcome to BetterBidding!

This is historically an expensive time in NYC and i'm doubtful that you'll be successful for a 3* or 4* hotel for $150 for the above dates. Have you researched prices thru conventional means (use our BetterChecker to assist in your search)... what's the best rate you're able to find at an acceptable hotel for this stay?

We'll suggest a strategy for whatever amount you choose, but i just don't think $150 is in the right ballpark based upon current rates.

Yes, I was looking on one of the other November posts! I guess $250 is a good maximum. Thanks!

Two more questions in order to move forward...

1) did you want to try for a 4* first up to your limit and then try for a 3* up to your limit OR are you looking for the least expensive 3* or better in any of the above zones? (i'm assuming the latter, but please confirm)

2) note that at the 3* level there are some hotels which are about a 10-15 minute walk to the subway station, would this be acceptable? (although there are busses which are closer which you could always take to your distination or to the subway)

Let us know the above and we'll advise accordingly.
