Priceline Hotel: 4* USE, USW, SOMA-Moscone help

[Lagacygt]

I saw that others had success with $70 bids at Parc 55 (the hotel Im hoping for) and tried all available rebids to $79 and none were accepted, even at the 3.5* level. Will $80 do the trick? I didn't bid $80 (because Im

pigheaded and stupid and tried to stick to my guns) and now I have to wait a few more hours to rebid.

There is a Cal - Stanford rivalry game so that might be driving up the prices, although Stanfords new stadium seats 50,000. Although I imagine at least half will be local fans and students.

Does priceline/hotwire charge a fee for booking?

Hotwire offered what appears to be Galleria Park (3.5* USE, boutique, wifi, business ctr, fitness ctr) for $75, which is $4 cheaper than what <a href="http://travel.ian.com/index.jsp?cid=103357&home=true" target="_blank">Hotels.com</a> is offering.

Of course I will use the links to make my purchase.

You could certainly try $80, although I'm guessing $82-85 may be what it takes for a 4*. I certainly wouldn't go very high at all (nor do I think you need to), given that HOTWIRE rates are quite inexpensive on these dates (and the 3.5*'s on HOTWIRE are even cheaper.)

HOTWIRE and PRICELINE do charge a fee.
