Priceline Hotel: 3.5* NYC (Downtown-Soho-Financial) Club Quarters Wall Street

[Rookfan]

For these last two days of our NYC stay it needed some patience and it would burst this frame if I told all that I tried.

Only this: I need Downtown area only, so since a long time I tried, of course always using our PRICELINE link, to bid first 4* between $129 - $159, then 3.5* between $116 - $149 and at last 3* for $89 - $ 99, all with no success every time.

As reported earlier, in Nov. 2009 (!) I won an MTE hotel for the first 5 days of our stay in April - this as additional comment regarding "to bid earlier or later" :)

Today, 4* finished, started 3.5* this time with $119 and got Club Quarters on first try. Perhaps overbid.

OK, not my dream. However I watched also their rates all the time. HOTWIRE's cheapest rate on one day was $145, their own rate is $239, so I should be happy with the result I ended up.

Thanks again to all of you who support this great board, specially to the Moderators :) , always appreciated.

Congratulations on your success!

Glad to see your plans are now settled (from November until now was a long time coming!) and you can focus on other aspects of your trip!

If you're looking for a nice but casual place for dinner this is my somewhat new favorite pizza place downtown not too far from this hotel:

Adrienne's Pizza Bar

54 Stone St

New York, NY 10004

It's a restaurant (not a slice place)... stick with the rectangular pizza which is excellent and reasonably priced for the quality of the ingredients. Beer ($7) and wine (staring at $8) is a little pricey... but not outrageous for NYC.

Thank you for sharing your win with the board and using our PRICELINE link to begin your bidding.

Enjoy your stay.
