nycmb404 Posted January 28, 2010 Report Posted January 28, 2010 Hi All, I am looking for a 3.5 or 4 star hotel in SF , preferably in Financial District/Embarcadero, but also willing to consider USE/USW, or SOMA. Last night I bid $70 for a 3.5 or 4 star hotel in FD/E. That was rejected, so I added SOMA, and that too was rejected. My dates are 2/23-2/27 (checking out on the 27th). Any suggestions for my next move? I can have my fance bit too? I'd appreciate any feedback. This forum is certainly a great resource. Mike
slruud Posted January 28, 2010 Report Posted January 28, 2010 Hotwire has a 3.5* hotel in the Embarcadero are for $72/nite.....might be the Club Quarters. The 4* hotel going for $109 is most likely the Hyatt.Do you understand the concept of free rebidding on Priceline? The FAQs explain how you can get multiple bids per session, greatly increasing you chances of an accepted bid.Good luck.

Gallus50 Posted January 28, 2010 Report Posted January 28, 2010 3.5* is most likely the Club Quarters. I stayed there last September. Check on the hotel list.

slruud Posted January 29, 2010 Report Posted January 29, 2010 nycmb404,Noticed you posted for hotel IDs on the Hotwire side. Understand that one can usually bid ten to twenty percent less on Priceline and usually get the same star rating that Hotwire has. Seeing that the only 3.5* on the Priceline list for Embarcadero/Financial District is Club Quarters, there is a good probability you might get it.Please use the PRICELINE or HOTWIRE links on this website whatever you decide to do.
nycmb404 Posted January 29, 2010 Author Report Posted January 29, 2010 Thanks for the tip. I will use the links, and I'll report back with the results.
nycmb404 Posted January 29, 2010 Author Report Posted January 29, 2010 I ended up using PRICELINE (using this site's link) and getting the hyatt regency for $75 a night. Booked this for $75/nt for Feb 23-27. Last night I tried $70 for FD/E and SOMA, but was rejected. Today, tried just FD/E and $75 and that worked. Used the PRICELINE links from this site
