Priceline Hotel: 3* Holiday Inn Select Montreal Centreville

[euroboy]

I've been tracking bidding websites like this one for guidance on making my 1st bid with Priceline.com

I started out bidding on 4* hotels in Montreal but soon realized my bids were way too low (<$50) and acceptable bids were way above my budget.

So here's what got accepted today on Priceline for 3* hotels in Montreal:

Holiday Inn Select Montreal Centreville

Check-In Date: Friday, May 16, 2003

Check-Out Date: Monday, May 19, 2003

Hotel Address:

99 Viger Ave And St Urbain St

Montreal, Quebec H2Z 1E9

514-878-9888

Your Offer Price: $45.00 (US dollars)

Number of Rooms: 1

Number of Nights: 3

Subtotal: $135.00 (US dollars)

Taxes: $10.32 (US dollars)

Processing Fee: $5.95 (US dollars)

Total Charges: $151.27 (US dollars)

Using the tax rate tip, I estimate Priceline's cost to be around $43/night.

Not bad for first time bidding, heh?

PS: I also considered Hotwire (which I've used in the past) but was not finding anything under $50 US. Hotwire's service charges are also much higher.
