MUCBear Posted February 13, 2009 Report Posted February 13, 2009 Hallo,I need a room in Milan from 04/24/09 to 04/26/09.

thereuare Posted February 13, 2009 Report Posted February 13, 2009 Chances of getting a good deal are diminished, but we have seen hotels won even when the hotel website is showing sold-out. While this is more the exception than the rule, you have nothing to lose by trying.Is this an optional trip or will you take this trip regardless?Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

MUCBear Posted February 13, 2009 Author Report Posted February 13, 2009 My partner and I are celebrating our 10th aniversary, and we first met in Milan. This trip should be a surprise. But surprisingliy it turned out to be a surprise for me, because I simply did not bear in mind that stupid fair. Flight is already booked, and it is a non-refundable, non-rebbokable fare.
thereuare Posted February 13, 2009 Report Posted February 13, 2009 I don't know this area at all, but is there transportation to the city if you stay out near the airport?HOTWIRE has a 3.5* for $225/nite?Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.
