Priceline Hotel: 4* Park City, UT

[doubled1018]

Im a newbie on here and priceline and I have a few questions i was hoping some generous people could help me with :) . Im looking for a hotel 4* or 3* in park city for the dates march 9 -12. I tried priceline last night for the first time and my bid was not accepted. My questions are:

1. It looks like priceline doesnt give me an option to pick 4* or up. Only 3* or up. Am I missing a selection or something?

2. Is it better to bid for all 4 nights or bid shorter such as 2 and 2?

3. How can I tell I am bidding a realistic amount?

-Any help would be great! Thanks in advance.

Welcome to Betterbidding. :)

1. Not all ratings may be available in every area.

2. Splitting your stay (2/2, for example) is generally necessarily during busier time periods in places like NYC. It could be used in an area like Park City, but either way, it is a tactic generally used as a "last resort" rather than a first option.

3. What would be your budget per night?

To make a "smart" bid you need to do a bit of homework first... what is the best rate you're able to find at an acceptable 3* hotel in this area?

so it seems like around $150. bid half?

If you've bid $70 for a 3* in this zone and were not accepted, then I would recommend bumping up to $75 next.
