WillTravel Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 Through a Twitter special a week or so ago (sadly no longer available), I got the Roosevelt at a cancellable $99 rate for my upcoming stay.From what I can see, this is about as good a hotel as you can expect at the 3.5* level, in a good location.I suspect this will be hard to beat, and I want to ensure I don't get a worse hotel in a worse location, for just minor savings.Any thoughts on whether or what I should try, in terms of zones or bids, for a standard tourist visit?

AaronJB Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 That's a superb deal for this well-located property, and I would doubt it could be beaten. I'm seeing a 3.5* MTE for these dates on HOTWIRE which could possibly be the Roosevelt (or a couple of other properties) for $193. Link to comment
WillTravel Posted April 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 Thanks - that is what I suspected. I really don't want to do worse than what I've gotten, so I think I'll leave it at that. Link to comment
WillTravel Posted May 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2010 I think this was one of my best deals ever, considering what happened to hotel prices during this period. You can see this by other bids people reported in this time period. I booked a "Cozy Queen", but I think the room was at least 12 x 20, which I consider good-sized for a world-class city hotel room. Undoubtedly some rooms are smaller. Everything about the hotel and room was fine, and definitely 3.5* standard, and the location is so convenient. Link to comment
thereuare Posted May 26, 2010 Report Share Posted May 26, 2010 Glad you had a good stay.Yes, rates for these dates certainly skyrocketed (an understatement to say the least) and another good example of why having a refundable back-up is always a good idea... as well as evidence that the best deals don't always come waiting until the last minute and inside of one week. Please use this HOTWIRE and these PRICELINE LINKS: HOTELS, CAR RENTALS, and AIRFARE to begin your travel purchases Link to comment
