Priceline Hotel: Accommodation in San Francisco, 10/9-10/11

We would like to travel in SF from Oct/9 - Oct/11 2nts (the post topic is a typo mistake, should be 9-11/OCt). AS this is the 1st time of being there, could somone can kindly advise which zone is better for tourist with the budget at $50 - $70,3* or + hotel? Is it the high season in SF during that period?

I would like to bid 2 rooms.

Many Thanks....

:) some one can help me, I need your master skills, I'm new

Welcome to the board, rickshi.

A moderator will fix the dates in your subject line when they see this.

September and October are still busy tourism months in San Francisco. But even within busy months some days are busier than others and what matters are the rates for your exact dates, 10/9-10/11. At this time rates look moderate or average---not very low and not very high.

That said I don't think $70 will probably be enough for a 3* in the five most popular zones: Fisherman's Wharf, USE, USW, SOMA, and Embarcadero. I think somewhere in the $70-100 range could be enough for 3* though.

Since your trip is still more than two months away you could try bidding up to $70 for a month or so, and then if you're not having luck, raise your bid higher at that time.

I think $70 might be enough for a 2.5* in USE or USW, or Civic Center South zones. And $70 will be more than enough for a hotel near the airport, but that's not the preferred location for most tourists.

If you'd like to try up to $70 for a 3* now let us know which zones you want and someone will suggest a strategy. Or ask if you have other questions.

Thank you so much for your information. Will discuss with my partners and try in PL. BTW, what's the star rating of the hotels like Hilton or Marriott hotels in SF? 3* or even higher? Is it possible to have a strategy of bidding this kind of hotel?

Many tks...

You can see all hotels, and their star rating, reported to the board in the Priceline Hotel List.

Once you talk to your traveling partners let us know which zones, star rating, and maximum bid you would like to try for and we'll suggest a strategy for you to follow.

Sorry for not replying this topic for many days as we are re-planning the trip. We decided to stay in Oakland for few days instead of stay San Francisco as I think the price in Oakland can match our limit budget.

Thank you for all of your help.

Thanks for the follow-up!

Did you already purchase a hotel for this trip, need help with the upcoming reservations, book direct, etc?
