Priceline Hotel: 3* Long Island-Suffolk County (MacArthur Airport ISP) Holiday Inn

[watercoolerz]

I am looking for booking 3 rooms in Long Island in any of the areas:

- Hauppauge

- Bethpage Farmingdale

- Plainview

- Huntington

- Westbury

I have bid 2/3/4 * category from $40 to 55 from 18th through 28th April. NO LUCK

Please advise.

what is your maximum bid per night?

Among the zones that you've listed, I believe the Comack-Hauppauge zone will be the most likely zone to have a low bid accepted. I did a HOTWIRE search for your dates and a 3* appears for $69 with Breakfast, Pool, Business Center, HS Internet. Although this has not been reported, I believe this is the Holiday Inn Express in Hauppauge, so, I think you are close. This is rated as a 2.5* on PRICELINE. If you can go a little further out, I feel that the best deals are to be had in the MacArthur ISP zone.

Your stay is for 10 nights, is splitting your bid into two stays a possibility?

Please use the PRICELINE or HOTWIRE links if you proceed.

Thanks but $69 is too much. I am willing to stay in 2** as well. I have tried 1** as well for $50, i am not getting even that. Please advice.

Additionally, is there anything on HOTWIRE that works for you? (either for part or all of your stay?)

I think the Hauppauge zone is the only one with a remote chance of acceptance at $50, stay away from the Huntingdon zone as there is a particularly nasty hotel called Huntingdon Country Inn that was a 1960's era Howard Johnson's that lost its franchise.....the reviews on Tripadvisor are really bad.

Hotels in the Hauppauge zone get business Monday-Wednesday from corporate types visiting local businesses, so occupancy is highest on those days and it tends to drop off for Thursday-Sunday stays, so you need to let us know if you are willing to split your bid.

That said, I think you'd have a great chance of getting the Holiday Inn at MacArthur airport for less than $50, but this is a little further than you may want. Something's going to have to be compromised: Dates of Travel, zone, price per night.

this Holiday Inn has a manager's reception weekday evenings, its one of the best Priceline deals on Long Island for a midweek stay.

Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links when you bid.
