maxime Posted May 7, 2009 Report Posted May 7, 2009 I placed a bid 2 days ago on priceline for june 3, 3 nights, 4 star in miami beach, 80$ and it got rejected. I saw that recent wins for a 4 star in that area are The Palms and Eden Roc Renaissance hotel. I am really hoping to book the Eden Roc Renaissance hotel. I saw that someone won that hotel at 100$ per night 6/1-6/3.Do you have a strategy? I am willing to bid up to 110$ per night.Thanks so much!
thereuare Posted May 7, 2009 Report Posted May 7, 2009 Assuming you're willing to accept any 4* hotel in the zone (or Resort class hotel since your 4* bid can be upgraded to a resort property) i'd try as follows:At the 4* level you have FIVE re-bid zones. If you're not familiar with re-bidding please read Priceline Re-Bidding Explained and feel free to ask questions and/or confirm your re-bid zones with the board before proceeding.Select 4* Miami Beach...Bid $80, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $90, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $95, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $100, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $105, if rejected add re-bid zone...Bid $110Any questions feel free to ask.Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.Good luck and let us know how it goes.

thereuare Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 Congratulations on your success!Unless you also wanted to stay in South Beach i don't think you had your re-bid zones correct, feel free to confirm your re-bid zones before bidding for your next hotel stay... but all is well that ends well and glad to see you ended up in the zone, and at the property, you were hoping for.It would be appreciated if you used the requested PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your future travel purchases.
