Priceline Hotel: Resort San Juan InterContinental

[rishit]

kind of new to this whole bang

i rarely use hotwire cus its us limitations, but i finally need place that falls under us jurisdiciton, and luckily thereby hotwire's

i spent weeks on Expedia and know most resorts by heart, and wanted to know, do you guys just compare with ur current hotel list to find out which hotel the hotwire is offering, cus i can do that to save u time, or do u have other secret way

anyways, i was curious about bids being successful and everything, and also deciphering this hotel

Notice this post included in RED (in order highlighted):

Rio Grande - Humacao

four stars

Price 98 per room per night

Date dec 19th to dec 22 2009 the same came up when i searched for 19-23. i am trying to keep checking for 23 because there is some talk on sites of fourth night free and i dont want to miss oppurtunity

from what i could tell, i think this is gran melia, right? cus it is the only one that says suites and with children activities. this is good deal i guess, but this is pretty cheap on its own website too. but i want to know i fi can get some help trying to get the two waldorf astoria's on puerto rico. the conquistador 4 star resort (not the overpriced casitas village within that resort of 4.5*) and/or the el san juan hotel in the capital. the rio mar i wouldnt mind as well. its just that ive never bid before and i dont know exactly the tips and strategies of how to do this. can i keep putting hotlels up here and u gusy help me figure out the actual name of it, or should i jsut compare with the hotel list myself??

sorry for length, very confused, thank you for your tme and consideration

from what i could decipher on my own, this may be the intercontinetnal, because of the resort amenitie

i dont know, could you guys use ur magic

my main thing is just to avoid the condado, which is ocean front and NO BEACH

ESSENTIALLY I DONT CARE WHERE I STAY< THIS IS FOR MY WIFE

i need ANY FOUR STAR WITH NICE BEACH

i dont care where on the island it is, so i was searching rio grande area because they have the nicest resorts, but i heard that that will get super expenisve cus u are completely isolated inside resort

so now i am looking at resorts in san juan, where there is close by fast foods, and .75 cents bus to old san juan

any four star with beautiufl beach and im good

do u also think this is intercontinental

Welcome to BetterBidding :)

Please keep all posts in the same thread since posts are for the same dates.

Best guess for the 4* Rio Grande - Humacao would be the Grand Melia. For the San Juan property would my guess be the Intercontinental.

Just post if you need any further help.

there is now a 24 hr sale for Expedia offering originally 139pn doubltree for 76/n, but it does now show up on hotwire. i am torn

the 4* 106/n san juan the 4* 98 gran melia, or the 76 doubletree 3.5*

any advice. i hate decisions

[AaronJB]

How much are you going to be in the room? If not much, the answer would likely be the cheapest (Doubletree.) If you're going to be in the room more, either of the 4*'s would be a fine choice.

Please use the site's HOTWIRE, PRICELINE or Expedia.com links.

Additionally, 10NOV may work for $10 off per night on Expedia.

No neeed for another thread since all the information is the same.

i did the same thing to try and get intercontinental, which was pretty sure to be 106 pnight on hotwire

dates were dec 19-22

but 90 didnt work

100 worked. so i guess i lost 30 bucks for some reason

i used the PRICELINE link on this page

thank you

it was wierd tho. was wondering if u guys knew

i did four star originally. and it put both resort and four star as checked, but wanted 22 dollars more on my 90 bid. then 100 didnt work

but when i started all over and put resorts only. instead of checking four star. then put 100. it worked.
