menelaus7 Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Hello Everyone:Didn't have much luck (yet) trying to book a hotel in S.F. for those dates in the Financial District. Using the PRICELINE link above, I started at $80 and worked up to $95 by adding in the zones without a 4* hotel. Seeing a few wins for a similar time frame in the low $80s (different area, of course), I was hoping to get something less than $100. I will try again in a few days. Wish me luck!FYI - the reason I like the Financial District is that the quality of the 4* hotels there look much nicer than in some of the other areas - where you can get some that are ranked 4* by Priceline, but the reviewers seem to suggest otherwise.

thereuare Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 Not sure if you intend to raise your bid on your subsequent bits, but HOTWIRE has what appears to be the Omni for $119/nite, just to make sure you don't bid too high when you can 'know' you can get the well reviewed Omni for this price.Thanks for using our PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your bidding.Keep us updated and let us know how we can be of further help.

menelaus7 Posted May 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 Thank you for the suggestion. I decided to follow up on your advice and use HOTWIRE (using the link above) - and get the 4* hotel in the Financial District for $119 and it WAS the Omni!!! I am quite pleased with this outcome (and will post it on the Hotwire section as well. Thanks again.Scott Link to comment
menelaus7 Posted May 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 Hello Everyone:Using the HOTWIRE link above, I received a $119 offer for a 4* Hotel in the Embarcadero (Financial) District of San Francisco for my stay of 11/9 through 11/15. The only amenities were the four listed on the Hotwire Hotel listing - restaurant, fitness center, business center and internet. Of course, all four listings in this district could have met this (although the Hilton-Financial District recently included the spa as an amenity). I was pleased to discover that I got the Omni Hotel for $119 - as this is one of the best reviewed hotels in San Francisco. Cheers! Link to comment
