Welcome to BetterBidding!

Please don't double post.

The Disneyland North hotel is a match for the Holiday Inn Hotel and Suites Anaheim (Walnut St) while the Disneyland South hotel is a match for the Holiday Inn Anaheim (Manchester Ave), so that would be our best guess for each.

Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

Let us know which you decide and how it goes or if we can be of further help.

Is it best to wait? I was hoping to get something different what about PRICELINE what do you think would be a good bid for three star hotel for this week?

...what about PRICELINE what do you think would be a good bid for three star hotel for this week?

I want to book a nice 3 or 4 star in anaheim or irvine but don't want to end up with the Holiday Inn. Any suggestions? I'm going 8/30- 9/6 a week i want to spend a max of $80.00 a night..... does anyone have any suggestions? Please and thank you. Would i get the hotel for less if i changed my bid to start 9/1- 9/6 and just book the first two days on hotwire..... PLEASE ANY SUGGESTIONS WILL HELP. Thank you.

Priceline has a Dineyland zone and a Costa Mesa-Irvine zone. There are 3* Holiday Inns in both zones. The only way to insure you won't get a Holiday Inn is to bid 4* in Costa Mesa-Irvine. Priceline doesn't offer 4* bidding in the Disneyland zone.

You can't guarantee you'll win a hotel in Irvine. You could win a 4* in Costa Mesa too. It's all one zone. If you're okay with either Costa Mesa or Irvine let us know and someone can suggest a strategy for bidding 4* there.

[Colfax]

On further inspection I see that the Holiday Inn in Costa Mesa-Irvine was last reported as a 2.5*, not 3*. Unless that Holiday Inn's been upgraded to 3* you could bid for a 3* in Costa Mesa-Irvine as well. But bidding 3* in Costa Mesa-Irvine you could also win a hotel in Santa Ana, part of which is inside the Costa Mesa-Irvine zone. If you stick to 4* you shouldn't get a hotel in Santa Ana.

I am ok for 4 star in Anaheim costa mesa irvine. Please suggest best bidding practice thank you.

[Colfax]

I think you mean you want to bid for a 4* in Costa Mesa-Irvine, correct? Anaheim is in the Disneyland zone and PRICELINE doesn't offer 4* bidding in the Disneyland zone.

When bidding for a 4* in Costa Mesa-Irvine you have six free rebid zones. Those are zones that only have hotels less than 4*. If you don't understand how to identify your six free rebid zones please ask before you bid.

I suggest that you bid $50 for a 4* in Costa Mesa-Irvine and raise $5 per free rebid to your $80 limit.

Please start your bids with this PRICELINE link. Good luck!

Can someone please help me i posted this yesterday it is a new one, somehow it got moved into my old forum :S does anybody know what hotels these two are?

[thereuare]

Are you still seeing the 3* hotel on a search for your dates as i see a 3* hotel in this zone with many mroe amenities than listed above when i search HOTWIRE for your dates. If you still see the hotel above are you searching for more than one room or for more than the defaults 2adults/0children?

Did you try the bidding strategy suggested by Colfax? Given the discussion there is looking for a 4 star property... is a 2.5* HOTWIRE property a realistic possibility?
