harbison Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 Our family is going to Six Flags over Texas and Rangers game. Is there any way to do a hotel on Priceline? I'm afraid I might get one bed. Any tricks? When I looked at the Westin DFW Airport all their website shows is King. Thanks Link to comment
thereuare Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 Welcome to BetterBidding!There is now way to assure more than double occupancy when using PRICELINE. Your choices:-take the risk and hope it works out-use HOTWIRE which allows you to search for up to quad occupancy-bid on two rooms (which sometimes can still be cheaper than booking one rooms direct)Let us know how you'd like to proceed, along with the date(s) of your stay, desired star rating, and budget (per nite per room before taxes and fees) and we'll advise accordingly.Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

harbison Posted July 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 If you bid on more than one room, would they be together or at least close? Link to comment
AaronJB Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 You could call the hotel and request that the two rooms be close to one another. While that would not be guaranteed, it doesn't seem like it would be a particularly big deal, unless the hotel was crowded for your dates.As mentioned, HOTWIRE is also a good way to go, and could be cheaper than having to pay for two rooms.What are the dates of travel and what is the budget per night for hotel? Additionally, how many people in your party?Please use the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links. Link to comment

poodleone Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 What a great deal! I just made a reservation at the $35 rate. We stayed here last month and really like this hotel. I had never had the nerve to use Priceline before but will do so more often in future. Link to comment
AaronJB Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Poodleone, welcome to the site. It would be greatly appreciated if you could post a new/separate thread for your win. Thank you. Link to comment
bichomau Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 I stayed at the Hyatt Place and I was impressed. The breakfast is great and you can order, for $, lots of other items if the free buffet items are not to your liking. I always use the priceline and [url="http://www.betterbidding.com/clicks/click.php?afsrc=1&id=33"]HOTWIRE[/url] links on the BetterBidding page. Thank you very much for this web site. Link to comment
harbison Posted July 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 Our five night stay was wonderful. We have nothing but praise for the Hyatt Place in Hurst. Our family of six was very comfortable. We went to Six Flags, Rangers and Cowboy Stadium. It's quick zip down 121 and 360, about 10 minutes. Easy to get to Grapevine, Fort Worth or Arlington areas. If you're worried about booking a priceline room and getting only one double bed for your family, I recommend going this route. As best as I could tell from researching, Hyatt Place was the only 3* priceline hotel in the Hurst, Euless, Bedford area. I got it on my first bid, but if you don't just add another area that doesn't have a 3* hotel. Every room has a queen sleeper sofa and either king or 2 doubles.
