Priceline Hotel: 10/8-10 NYC Help

[PopDisplay]

started at $120 and went up to $201 bidding MTE, MTW, CPS, TS, DT/SOHO/FIN and ESB... nada

I'm bidding for 10/8-10/11, 4*

Each day I've tried the same pattern:

$180 with TS

$190 add MTW

$200 add Chelsea

$210 add Long Island City

$220 add Brooklyn

Nothing, nada, zilch

Perhaps as the dates get closer, the hotels will be more receptive.

Bid MTE, TS, CPS and added rebids $10 at a time. Got nowhere.

I'm going to try again tonight.

Why start another thread when our targeted stays are nearly identical?

[AaronJB]

Stays are requested to be kept in separate threads, as not all stays will be for the same price and if kept separate the results will show up separately in the site's calendar of wins. Additionally, since the dates of travel aren't identical, keeping stays separate will also result in the calendar of wins feature showing accurate information.

Additionally, since the stays aren't identical, it would be greatly appreciated if the information can be kept separated. Thanks.

Thanks for your response.

Is there any difference in time of day, insofar as bidding success is concerned? (bidding at night vs morning)

[AaronJB]

No difference in terms of time of day.

PopDisplay,

Please read your messages

Thanks.

Tried again today- bidding up to $225 for 4* TS and MTW, also bidding up to $200 for 3.5* for the same zones

No progress...

[thereuare]

The midtown area of NYC is so compact, and zones so close together that often one street divides one zone from another (ie- one side the street is one zone, the other side othe the street is another) that most midtown locations work fine for the typical traveller... do your plans require you to be in one of these two zones (or are there specific hotels in other zones that you're trying to avoid) as i do see viable options in other nearby zones near prices you have already bid.

Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.

Cancelled the trip
