lcoore Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 Hi, I have never used priceline before someone suggested I should try it before I book my hotel in Hawaii next week, I am not sure if it is too close to the date to try. I need to be in honolulu from april 16-20 and then Maui from the 20 -23. Any suggestions or should I just use hotwire at this point. I want to stay in a 4star hotel.Thanks Link to comment
woodieville Posted April 9, 2010 Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 It's not too late to try for Honolulu. You should be able to get a Waikiki beach resort hotel below $100 assuming we are past spring break???? I would start bidding at $90. Beware that there is a $30ish fee for parking. Link to comment
