Priceline Hotel: 3* Philadelphia (Downtown) Hilton Garden Inn Center City

[lpennington]

I have a course to attend in Center City. The course was actually at the Radisson Warwick which I had hoped to get but I got this for a Tuesday 4/21 check-in. No problem as they are almost equally nice and the Hilton Garden Inn has better parking accomodations. My 1st bid was $45 which I began at based on past 3* bids on this site. I still may have to bid for another course later this week on Friday!

I have an odd schedule where I'll be in Philly in 2 separate occasions this week. My bid for Tuesday night made earlier today was accepted and the exact bid for Thursday night was rejected. I will try again tomorrow.

My bid for Tuesday night made earlier today...

thereuare, I had already created a thread for my 'win' see below:

Priceline Philadelphia Hilton Garden Inn

That win is for 4/20, a Monday nite... is the date wrong in that thread or is it actually a Monday nite that you bid for?

[thereuare]

OK, i see now that the topic title of that thread had the wrong date and the body of the message had the correct date of 4/21 listed so i have edited it accordingly... sorry for the mix-up.

For 4/23, what is your maximum bid?

Let us know and we'll suggest a strategy for you to follow.

**update** I ended up not staying at a hotel for this night. After looking into the situation I discovered that this weekend was the Penn Relays weekend in Philly which would explain why almost every Center City hotel would have zero vacancy Thursday through the weekend. It's a very big tourism weekend in Downtown and West Philadelphia.

No problem... what did you end up doing for this stay tonite?

Sorry about the confusion. I only stayed in a hotel for the Monday night at the Hilton Garden Inn.
