yellowdog Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 Welcome to BetterBidding :) I don't know much about Kuala Lumpur and it's not very frequent on the board. But maybe we have a member that got some good advice for you. Good luck with everything!Yellowdog. Link to comment
Chris26WI Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 "Usually", the Renaissance had shown up previously for KUL, with the "New Wing" as 4 star and the "Renaissance Wing" as 5star.. (avoid the "New Wing" in any case!). Sometimes also the Sheraton Imperial (5-star).. but has been quite a while since I've seen it been reported. I don't assume that there's a big difference between using the asian or the us version of priceline.. seems they have the same inventory (no guarantee though). Link to comment

Hazel Posted November 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 HazelDo you get rejected when you bid or is this an error message?Yellowdog.yeap this is after I go through everything and it tries to bid for me I guess Link to comment
Hazel Posted November 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 is it because no 5* hotels exist in KL? Link to comment
yellowdog Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 is it because no 5* hotels exist in KL?No, it's just beacouse your bid is to low for the *level. The 5* option would not been "active" for your dates if they lacked inventory. Please use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.Yellowdog. Link to comment
Hazel Posted November 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Oh ok,but even before it asks me to change my price, it asks me to change my star rating? Link to comment
yellowdog Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 but even before it asks me to change my price, it asks me to change my star rating?Yes, you only have one shot.Please read this link: Priceline Re-Bidding ExplainedPlease use these PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links to begin your travel purchases.Yellowdog.

sniper58 Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 I beg to differ. Priceline HK/Singapore has different inventory than Priceline USA. Also, Priceline UK accepts some of my bids when Priceline USA wouldn't.Check out Asia Travel. Sometimes they have special deal like this. < US$100 for 5 star at KLCC vicinity. (http://book.asiatravel.com/Hotel.aspx?hid=377#hotel). The hotel list here shd give u some clue on which hotel offers that 'suite' deal (in this case, my guess is Prince, scroll all e way down). http://www.asiatravel.com/malaysia.htmlEnjoy. :) Link to comment
