Priceline Hotel: 4* NYC (MTE) Hilton New York

[Juleee12]

Need help in getting the most out of Priceline for a trip this weekend to NYC. Dates are 11/26-11/28. I'd like to stay in Midtown if possible and in a 3* or 4* hotel for $140. Is this even possible at this late date with the Macy's Day Parade happening and all? What do you experienced bidders recommend.

Here's what I thought I'd do - select Midtown South, East, West and Upper. Start my bid at $110.

A comfortable hotel room is very important as it is just as much a part of the trip is as the sights. Is this even possible? Help!

Welcome to BetterBidding!

I would star like this...

Select 4* MTW and...

Bid $105, if rejected add MTE and...

Bid $110.

I won't get into re-bid zones and such just yet because based upon prior bids for this date i think you have a decent chance with the above. If the above fails we'll then get into re-bid zones and the UM/CPS zone.

Any questions feel free to ask.

Good Luck.

Wow, this board really works. I did exactly what the administrator told me to do and voila, I got my 4* in MTW for $105 one selection, one $ bid. Staying at the Hilton New York 1335 Avenue of the Americas. I'm psyched. I hope the room is all that I expect it to be. I'll report back with any findings. Happy Turkey Day to all!!!!!!! Juleee12

Congratulations on your win... glad you were successful and got a great deal.

I've mentioned before my wife works right near this hotel and i was at a conference there a few months back. It's a very large hotel, a LOT of business travelers (although not likely during the weekend that you are there) and close to Times Square and Central Park... a great location. You can see that the REVIEWS are generally quite favorable.

Have a great stay and time in NYC.
