Priceline Hotel: 4* London (Finsbury-Islington) Hilton Islington

[Taiko]

Bid at 4* level (This win not upgraded from 3*)

Been alternating this zone with the adjacent City Zone, going up in small increments daily for this weekday night.

Hit at $100 for Islington Hilton that used to be a Stakis or somesuch 3* chain property, before Hilton took it over.

(I hope they have renovated the rooms!) I lived just down the street for years..so it will be interesting to see the changes.

I have elite Hilton Honors Status so we'll see if I can get some bennies or an upgrade on a PL rate.

A tip for HH elites: Purchase something small on property, to get a stay credit towards next years qualification. YMMV

Lowest Hilton web site rate for this date was $250.
