Priceline Hotel: 3.5* Monterey (Monterey-Pacific Grove) Hyatt Monterey

[diegoc]

Would like 3.5* and above for these dates but really don't want Casa Munras as it has mixed reviews and that seems to be the prevailing hotel in this category/price. Looking to keep it below $100 per night. Monterey, Pacific Grove, Seaside, Marina would all work. Any strategies to avoid Casa Munras? Thx.

Please follow-up your previous Priceline Waikiki thread with whatever you ended up doing for that stay... then bump this thread and we'll have a look at the above.

Done.

I realize I can't target a specific hotel using PRICELINE, but maybe there is a strategy I haven't thought of. Really don't want the motel style, outside entrances of Casa Munras. Thanks. D.C.

There are no strategies to avoid a particular property - if you bid 3.5* in a particular area, you could get any 3.5* in that area. I would suggest instead seeing what is available on HOTWIRE, where you could at least make an educated guess as to which hotels are showing.

Thank you for using the site's PRICELINE or HOTWIRE links to start your purchases and searches.
