thereuare Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 The above is a match for the Hilton so that would be my best guess. (although i'm not currently seeing any 4* hotel offered in this zone when searching for 3adults... are you still seeing this on your own HOTWIRE search?)Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.Let us know how it goes or if we can be of further help.PS- please confirm the zone of your Priceline London thread using the instructions i sent in a message to your INBOX.

samlooker Posted July 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 Thanks for your reply.I just checked and that particular hotel (with that price) is gone, for the same 3-adults search.Seems they come and go, that means I need to check the site often.I am still debating whether to book one 3-person room or bid 2 rooms from PRICELINE. Seems to me there are not that much a difference price wise.I did confirmed on the London post. Link to comment

thereuare Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 With PRICELINE you can't choose the specific hotel that you bid on (or that you will receive)... are you comfortable receiving a hotel anywhere within the shaded boundaries of the zones you've indicated above?Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

thereuare Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 The following will likely be too low, but with time on your side i'd start with the following:Select 4* Champs Elysees..Bid $90, if rejected close browser and use our link to re-access PRICELINESelect 4* St Germain..Bid $90, if rejected add Champs Elysees...Bid $100.Any 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.

Check out www.ratp.fr for transit options, and you can restrict to buses if you like. Link to comment

acchang4 Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 Looking for Paris hotel info too... samlooker, I know no one responded about buses, but I'd wager no one knows about buses.If you can, would you please complete the thread? What happened? All info helps. Link to comment
samlooker Posted March 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 Here is a (late) update. Due to the flu activities we had to change plan and went to Paris on August of 2009. We ended up booking 2 rooms directly at Hotel Concorde la Fayette for 168 EUR each night. It was a nice 3.5 star hotel in my opinion. Link to comment
