Colfax Posted August 30, 2008 Report Posted August 30, 2008 If you're thinking about conventionally booking the Fisherman's Wharf Radissson, which Priceline rates 3*, then why not bid for a Fisherman's Wharf 3* on Priceline?

thereuare Posted August 31, 2008 Report Posted August 31, 2008 it's not looking too good becoz of all the discount sf hotels are giving conventionally anyway...For most of the above you're not comparing apples-to-apples... most of the "deals" you've listed above either aren't in the USE or USW zone nor are they 4 star hotels, so really not fair to use them as a comparison. The Parc 55 is a pretty good deal for a 4* hotel at $135/nite, but you may be able to beat this via PRICELINE, and you have to decide if the additional cost is worthwhile vs. the other deals you've mentioned which are either for lesser star ratinged hotels or not in your prefered zone(s).Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

tyasa Posted September 6, 2008 Author Report Posted September 6, 2008 3* FW - Sheraton at Fisherman's Wharf 11/15-11/18 $85...tried bidding from 65 and 75...For those who need is, tried bidding 4* at FW up to $110 no luckThe rooms looks like it's already renovated, worried about the mixed reviews (going to ask for a spot away from the bus station), but it's still a good deal...normal rates 30% off at $148Good spot unquestionably!
