SMN73 Posted November 24, 2014 #1 Share Posted November 24, 2014 If looking at hotels on Priceline, what star category should I look for? Also, have any of you won bids recently? If so, care to share star rating, hotel you ended up with and winning bid amount? Thanks so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamericaneyes Posted November 25, 2014 #2 Share Posted November 25, 2014 We did a Priceline express deal Condado area 4 stars and got La Concha for $179 per night excluding the "resort fee" for 2 nights Feb. 2015 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldie7203 Posted November 25, 2014 #3 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Its exactly what you are looking for....http://biddingfortravel.yuku.com/. People post their winning priceline bids, so you can take the guessing out of the bidding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monicajay Posted November 26, 2014 #4 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Personally I would no longer use Priceline since they made it all one big zone. I prefer Hotwire and at least I have a better idea of which part of the city I'll be in. In Southern places, we tend to stick with 4 star but will take a 3.5 star when we are pretty sure of the hotel (using other sites or this one to figure it out).

EMc&DrS Posted November 26, 2014 #5 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Have you tried Hotwire? We have always had great luck with anything 4 stars and above. Sent from my iPhone using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMN73 Posted November 26, 2014 Author #6 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I didn't know priceline didn't break the areas up. This is our first trip there so I need to see the different areas. I will use the tool listed and then try Hotwire. Thank you all!! Hoping to find a great hotel on the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCTribeFan Posted November 26, 2014 #8 Share Posted November 26, 2014 There's a very useful thread *stuck* at the top of this board all about Priceline and Hotwire bidding in San Juan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMN73 Posted November 26, 2014 Author #9 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Thank you all! I looked right over the pinned thread. LOL I will definitely have to know areas. My 20 year old daughter has told me she does not want to stay on the beach, but right in the middle of Old San Juan. Any recommendations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NayaSantaFe Posted November 27, 2014 #10 Share Posted November 27, 2014 I just got the San Juan Water and Beach Club in Isla Verde for $115/night in May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may have a 2 night minimum stay at some times of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was looking into the old convent that they turned into a hotel ( forgot the name) but found a resort in condado for half the price and went with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
